A few reasons. Apparently, the new regime isn't high on him. He also lost carries last year to Bigsby and Jag insiders have been predicting a trade for months. Then they drafted two backs in the draft. I think at this point it would be a surprise to many if he remained in teal and black.

Udinski could provide decent intell if we were to kick the tires. He’s a bit small for my tastes but I’d take him over Chandler in a hiccup.

Are you thinking about his brother who's 5-9, 198? Because Travis is 5-10, 215. Pert'near prototype IMO. I'd kick the tires because I find it hard to believe we'll take this current RB group into the season as it stands. But if we make only one trade, I'd go with one of the CBs rumored to be on the market over RB, and then just hope that Chandler's pass pro light comes on.

They need both, but I would absolutely prioritize a CB over RB this season.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

My mistake. That’s definitely in range of my preference.

Jags are speaking like they are keeping Etienne, but we know how much that ends up meaning.

Yep: "We have no intent to trade Percy Harvin." 

I can see a scenario where the Jags do keep Etienne, but it would likely involve Tuten or Allen looking like busts and/or Tank Bigsby getting hurt. The numbers don't seem to add up there.

I actually don't like either that much. Bigsby is overrated.

I think we are more than fine at RB for 2025. My guy early was TreyVeon Henderson and if late, RJ Harvey, but I didn't think they'd select any. KOC loves what he's got for this year methinks.

Agreed, I feel that Jones and Mason are going to form a pretty great tandem at RB this year.

Much more concerned about CB.

Etienne has not been traded and Coen mentioned how important he is to the team. Can't trust the noise or smoke before training camp or during.

Could that change with an injury to an important RB for some team? Of course. Especially if the Jaguars suck before the trade deadline on Nov. 4th.

LOL. Looks like they couldn't find a buyer, but it's hardly over yet.
