Who has played well for the Jaguars?
Jacksonville is the only NFL team that doesn't have a single player you would trade for.

TE Julius Thomas if he was healthy and cheaper.
CB/DB Aaron Colvin, I really liked how physical he was willing to be and seemed pretty versatile and reminded me of Hyde.

Of course any of them in Green Bay will quickly raise to elite level because of Rodgers.
Anything that reminds me of Hyde should stay wherever he is.

sometimes it's all about chemistry, he got his bucks and I'm sure he's not happy with his team. Case in point, James Jones

I personally am glad he is in Florida.

House was not fully 100% committed. Half of him wanted to be a Packer. Half of him wanted the bigger pay day.

It is a tough question. I wish we could have kept him, but the money was beyond his value so I am glad he walked (and we will get a good comp pick). Our young DBs are playing great, but we wouldn't have needed to draft 2 of them IMO if we could have signed House to a reasonable deal and could have concentrated on another position in the draft.

Both of Jags DB coaches coached Davon House in college. So they thought they both knew House and what he was physically able to do. I remember a quote from when he was drafted, his coached said he played his final year with an injury and that's why he dropped, they were expecting him to go in the top rounds of the draft and after signing him they talked about not understanding why the Packers didn't play him more, he did so well.

House does seem to have most of the physical potential the question is can he get the rest?
