MJD inked for 4 years/32+ mil

I love me some Rashad Jennings and have for a long time, and I can see him carving out a nice role once Jacksonville realizes what they have with him...He was my favorite back before the draft, so I won't let draft stock scare me off, but he did find a good spot to be in and he should be able to get a nice workload.


It's still MJD's job, but I'd monitor the situation closely because i could see Jennings stealing more then a few carries as the season wears on, no reason he should of lasted till the 7th and he'll be looked at like a steal.

I'm somewhat surprised that they didn't try to draft a RB before the 7th round but grabbing a back like Jennings was probably best case scenario for those who want MJD to have that break out year. He's a guy who's talented enough to make a dent in his touches enough so that MJD could get few enough touches to still be very productive per touch. I still think the ideal amount for him this year is similar to what DeAngelo Williams had last season...at or a little above 300 touches. If he's in the 300-325 touch range then he could easily be an elite back this year, especially given the attention to the O-Line by the Jags in the draft.

Does Jax drafting R. Jennings (Liberty) change anyone's opinion? Will this guy be an impact player for the Jag's? Where does he fit in their offense?

not as much as them drafting Eugene Monroe and Ebon Britten does

They should have a very strong O-line this year.

Winner winner chicken dinner. MJD is going to be a monster this year. If Garrard-Holt can just keep the safeties just a little bit honest, look out.
