I think that Khalif Barnes will be re-signed before the end of the season. I think the Jags will offer him a 4 year - 26.5 Mil contract with 10 Mil signing bonus. This will allow Khalif to get one more big contract before his career ends.I believe that Charles Spencer will end the season as the starting ORG and will be the favorite to keep his starting spot in 2009.
I see the Jags ending with a record of 11-5 and drafting a No. 26 in every round of the draft.
I predict that the Jags will trade their Rd 1 (26) and their Rd 3 (90) to move up in Rd 1 to Pick 20. Here is who I think they pick.
Rd 1(20): Ciron Black - OT - LSU - 6'5" 328 5.29/40 (Jr. Entry)
I think that the Jags will start Ciron Black at the OLG spot next to Khalif Barnes. This will give Manuwai more time to recover from his knee injury.
Rd 2(58): John Fletcher - DE - Wyoming - 6'6" 280 Lbs 4.86/40 (Jr)
Jags tap another Jr entry who they envision as a LDE that can rush the passer. In 2007, Fletcher had 10.5 sacks albeit against the Moutain West Conference.
Rd 4(122): Demonte Boldin - DT - Tennessee - 6'5" 292 Lbs 4.98/40
The Jags tap another Tennessee DT to help fill their DT rotation.
Rd 5(154): Jason Williams - OLB - W. Illinios - 6'1" 236 Lbs 4.59/40
Jags find another small school gem who can really run and hit. 2007 stats: 107 TT; 16.5 TFL and 8 sacks.
Rd 6(186): Mike Wallace - WR - Miss - 6'0" 185 Lbs 4.38/40
Jags tap a speedy slot WR that can also double as a return specialist.
