Definitely but right team and right coach make all the difference sometimes. That's can't be denied either.


Change of scenery is a good thing sometimes.

He's going to be coming off an ACL + MCL tear. He hurt his knee during week 4, or 5 of the season.

They also kicked him inside to LG this past season (they signed Beachum in the off season and he started at LT).

I'm okay with him playing guard they are looking at TJ Lang as well

Looks like there going to protect the inside because of the height of Wilson, only thing I can think of. Unless they think Ifedi/Odhiambo can play outside

Can play LT or LG.

Was probably better when he moved inside to LG, but it was only a 4 or 5 game sample size.

He wasn't as awful as a lot of Jag fans say he was, but he was definitely a bust.

He struggles against guys who can really convert speed, to power in their rushes. Once he loses confidence against those kind of pass rushers, it's all over for him.

There were plenty of times where you could tell he had no clue if the guy was going to come at him with speed, or a straight up bull rush.

Strength has always been a bit of an issue with him.

At the end of the day, it's a 1 year, prove it contract. Low risk, possible high reward.

Thanks for info man, I like it because at the very least it will give Fant the opportunity to work on technique although he wasn't great last year he shows a really high ceiling. Maybe that's the plan, then again who ever knows with PC and JS

Excited that you signed someone to address that Oline, but he's a FA for a reason. The Jaguars have a terrible line and still let him go. Just FYI

They ranked 22nd last season


That's 3 spots better than Seattle...

I'm actually enjoying the no big news from the Seahawks from FA so far.

They need safeties and corners now. Offensive line is a problem but looking at the depth it's horrible. Especially d line
