Jaguars released safety Donovin Darius.

He might be better than what we have...

[Freak Out]

Dang. Is he healthy? He and Fergy can reacquaint themselves.

They must have seen something they didn't like.

I forgot about that... Maybe he can scare the fraud off...

How about this slap in the face:

Cut Fergy and give Darius his roster spot.

He is a great agressive player, but I hate the bastard after that cheapshot he layed on Ferguson!

Maybe his salary was just to much to shell out this year given his age and injuries. Either that or he must be in some legal trouble.

12 games played in the last 2 years. Out fergusoning ferguson.

Now that is hilarious.

"He is a great agressive player, but I hate the bastard after that cheapshot he layed on Ferguson! "

I totally blanked that out.

Off with his head!!!

Pretty sure the Packer will have no interest...

I like him as a player... would love to have a big hitter at safety, but the Packers don't put a premium on physical DB's.

In hindsight we should all be pissed off he didn't just end Fergy's career and save us from wondering if this is gonna be "the year" for ole #89 (or whatever # he is wearing now) year after year.

Figures Wist likes him because he is/was a big hitter.

At this point, he's mostly just a name. His production was way down last year. He averaged well below his average in tackles/game, had 0 interceptions, 0 sacks, 0 fumble recoveries, 0 forced fumbles, and just 3 pass deflections in 10 games. Not one turnover play. He's 32-years-old in August, and he missed 14 games the previous year.

You can have your big hitter. I'll look elsewhere. He could rebound, but it's more likely that his years of being a solid starter are over.

[Carolina_Packer]

Whose spot would he take if he were competing for a starter's job?

Would you rather give a give like Rouse or Bigby a shot?

I agree that the Packers won't have any interest in Darius, but I don't agree with your "they don't like physical DB's" claim. Isn't it a necessity in this scheme for our starting CB's to be physical at the line? Isn't Nick Collins a big hitting physical safety who lacks in the mental game? Couldn't the same be said for Manuel? I'm not trying to start anything, but I think being physical is one of the aspects this coaching staff likes most in their defensive backfield? Isn't that one of the first things that was said about Frank Walker?

[BallHawk]

I'd rather see a young safety get the roster spot, rather then Darius. Darius is a shell of what he was. He's only going to get worse.
