I changed my mind.
I'm not sorry.
Signing Josh Jacobs is an incredibly "we're so good and really close!!!!" move and, well, yes I like our QB, WRs, and TEs but I do not trust this defense quite yet to put that much into a chip like a second running back?

As an ostensible Michigan fan he screams Zach Wilson to me. Maybe slightly better than that but those Michigan teams were stacked.

Could be a Jared Goff situation where he helps a good team hum along but struggles if the entire game is placed on his shoulders. Worked OK for us the past season and a half.

He's not Zach Wilson, JJ is able to play in structure far better. He didn't scramble out of clean pockets and made the plays he needed to make.

Far Far better personality, and team guy. like you said he's closer to I think his ceiling being Goff with some more mobility.

I think it’s a succession plan for after Aaron Jones, but having both Jones and Jacobs for a while is going to be amazing.

As Dexo pointed out, it's an excellent combo for now especially given the MLF offense and our WR/TE room.

First move to happen that mirrors the Madden franchise I'm doing where I play every game and let the computers sort out the rest (Kirk Cousins took the vet minimum to back up Dak Prescott in this universe and the Vikings used that space to sign both Tee Higgins and Mike Williams).

Suppose he butcher the contract situation with Aaron Jones, I'mma cry grown man tears. He is the lifeblood and heartbeat of this team. Love is still getting there, but Jones is the GUY. Dillon, I am okay with moving on. He only recently started to run like he meant business.

Malaria posted:

Jones is 100% worth whatever we are paying him.
Between his actual performance and his leadership on the team whatever they are paying him is cheap compared to what they get out of him.

He might restructure to help the cap but if he doesn't it's fine.

If we gently caress up an Aaron Jones restructure then I'll be mad, but I'mma doubt that's gonna happen
