Jacksonville is turning into some sort a quasi Bermuda Triangle for Broncos FAs

[sendacash]

Where they go to mysteriously just "disappear" off the NFL map.

First it was Zane Beadles and now it looks like Julius Thomas is the next victim. Malik needs to get out now while there is still time!

ESPN Jaguars reporter Mike DiRocco expects Jacksonville to release Julius Thomas this offseason.
Signed to a monster five-year, $46 million deal ahead of the 2015 season, Thomas has answered with 46-455-5 and 30-281-4 receiving lines in 2015 and 2016, respectively, while missing 11 games to injuries. He scored 24 touchdowns across his final two seasons in Denver, but the Jaguars failed to use him like the Broncos did as a field-stretcher down the seams. Thomas isn't going to make defenders miss on short passes; he's a run-straight athlete in the mold of Jared Cook who could benefit playing in an offense that better plays to his strengths. Releasing Thomas would save the Jaguars $4.7 million against the cap.

Virgil green or Julius Thomas both valued at 3 mill which one?

Depends on the offense McCoy will employ. I will admit Thomas' zero effort on his run blocking really irked me.

I would take Zane Beadles back in a hurry. We could at least convert 3rd & 1 with Beadles on the o-line. Willis McGahee and Knowshon Moreno ran pretty well when Beadles was the LG.

I would not be against signing Julius Thomas either. He's not coming back because his departure from Denver was pretty ugly and even his father got involved. I can see Adam Gase making Julius Thomas a Dolphin.

Zane Beadles is with the 49ers now.....

U know, Thomas did it to himself. He wouldn't play through "hurt". And in such a violent sport like football, "hurt" is part of the game. If you are injured, then that's one thing. But most players I've known and seen (on all levels) would cut their arm off if it got them back on the field. When he held himself out for like 3 weeks back in 2014, that really irked Elway and everyone else in the organization.

Is anyone REALLY that surprised that Julius Thomas didn't live up to his absurd contract?

We (and many fans throughout the NFL) saw this one MILES away.

Thomas is a tight end made of glass. You'd kinda want someone in that position to be able to take hits. He was definitely someone whom just thrived in our offense.

So you're made of glass and you can't block worth a damn.

Regardless he made some money and I'm sure some team is gonna bring him in.

That is pretty much all there is to Thomas. Incredibly good for a receiving TE who wasn't really in love with the sport. Good enough with Manning to get a monster contract and will be a blip in NFL history in another season or two.

He got what he wanted, and I can respect that. But he will be one of those guys that you wonder what he could have been had he worked harder,

That's what they get for letting their agents talk them in to taking a fast nickel vs a slow dime. Thomas could have had a ring. Now he just has a beach near by and a bag of top Ramen
