HELLO LOS ANGELES!!! ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL??? * Crickets * Oh right, nobody in LA cares about professional football. Doesn’t matter.

Jaguars WR Justin Blackmon 'Lost' At Times During OTAs

May 30, 2012
Jacksonville Jaguars wideout Justin Blackmon -- perhaps as much as any rookie in this year's class outside of a handful of quarterbacks -- is being asked to step in and solve problems for his new team right away. At very least, the expectation is that Blackmon gives quarterback Blaine Gabbert a legitimate weapon to throw to starting Week 1. History tells us that receivers, however...

Justin Blackmon was the first receiver drafted in the 2012 draft, but that doesn't mean he's immune to the steep learning curve rookies face entering the NFL. Blackmon, a two-time Biletnikoff Award winner as the top receiver in college football at Oklahoma State, missed most of Jacksonville's rookie minicamp with a mild foot injury. He's back on the field, but acclimating...

With Tropical Storm Beryl making everything in Jacksonville all wet and mushy, the Jaguars were forced to conduct some indoor practices. Being the Jaguars, they don’t have a fancy indoor practice facility (or poles to hold up the tarps they use to cover their upper deck seats, or even a gym membership), so they packed up their **** and practiced on the club level at GenericBank...

There's been a handful of the always fun "best and worst case scenarios" floating around the NFL in recent weeks. I thought I'd take a stab at giving my opinion of the Jaguars best and worst case scenarios. I'm breaking this into two posts just because there's the potential for me getting long-winded in explaining myself, and I don't particularly like...

Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew has two years and $9.5 million remaining on the five-year, $31.35 million contract he signed in April of 2009.

I wrote yesterday about the optimism that's running rampant through the NFL at this time of the year, especially inside the Dolphins' organization.

For the first time in a long time, the Dolphins are showing genuine signs of optimism.

Recap of yesterday's lease scare with the Jaguars
Yesterday, the media became aware that the City of Jacksonville had notified the Jaguars that they were in default of their lease, and the termination process had been put in motion. To say the least, that's a dire piece of news for a team that is expected to move by many in the media, and a short-lived firestorm began. The reason the news was so huge is very simple.
