Football Jags sign Wisniewski

Jaguars signed C Stefen Wisniewski, formerly of the Raiders, to a one-year deal.

Recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, the deal is likely of the "prove it" variety after Wisniewski struggled to find the money he was looking for in free agency. Barely 26 and with four years of above-average tape already in hand, Wisniewski is a great bet to rehab his value and come back in a stronger negotiating position next offseason. Wisniewski should slide into center beside LG Zane Beadles and RG Brandon Linder with Luke Joeckel starting left tackle and newly-signed Jermey Parnell holding down the right side of the Jags' offensive line

That's actually a very good offensive line right there. Blake Bortles should have no excuses about protection.

Well except that Joeckel still has issues like Fisher. Other than that though ....it's good

Joeckel- 1st rounder- 2nd overall pick
Beadles- free agency
Wisniewski- free agency
Linder- 3rd rounder
Parnell- free agency

Look at that interior offensive line. Very solid play across the board, and they didn't spend a single lousy first round pick from LG through RG.

Do you people see now why going the route of the Cowboys is just plain ****ing overkill and takes too goddamn long to build up top quality?

The only kind of line you need to succeed.

Dallas was able to spend all that draft capital because they already had Dez, Witten and Murray. And even then, they did so at the expense of their defense.

You'll never convince me that spending early picks on OL is a good idea.

Only if it's a guy that you know is 80% NFL ready to start the year and it's at a spot that is literally the weakest point on the line.

Those players don't exist.

Even Chance Warmack struggled his rookie year. Really, I don't know if he's STILL any good. I haven't bothered to investigate.

Even DV's line of bulldozers didn't require multiple 1st round picks...

Too bad.. I was hoping we would manage to sign him.

Beadles - 2nd round pick
Wisniewski - 2nd round pick
Linder - 3rd rounder

the jags have a good chance to turn things around. they have a very nice nucleus of young talent on offense. they really had a great draft last year.

I think some are over rating Wis. He is an average center at best. I`ve watched almost all his games. He is a semi weak run blocker, average pass blocker and average center with snaps. He is known to send crazy shotgun snaps left, right or over the head too many times for comfort. He also is responsible for many delay of games. While Carr is screaming and clapping his hands for a snap, Wis continues to make protection calls at the line until the refs blow the whistle and down come the yellow flags. Even raider fans aren`t upset at his leaving.
