    would it be worth it to pick this guy up?

    Jaguars release Darius
    Young players emerge


    By Vic Ketchman, jaguars.com senior editor
    06/14/07



    The youth movement at safety has officially begun, as the Jaguars informed Donovin Darius on Thursday morning that the team was releasing him. So ends the Jaguars career of the player who has started more games than any other defensive player in franchise history.

    An influx of young talent at the safety position would seem to be at the root of Darius’ release. He’s coming off a season in which he sustained a broken leg in a week-11 game against the New York Giants. He missed 14 games in 2005 after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his knee.

    The Jaguars used their 2007 first-round draft choice on safety Reggie Nelson, then added safety Josh Gattis in round five. Third-year safety Gerald Sensabaugh is expected to step into a starting spot.

    Darius had been sidelined during spring practices while he recovered from his broken leg.

    Jaguars.com will update this story following Thursday morning’s practice.

    Definitely. Of course, if we had just drafted Gerald Sensabaugh in the fifth round two years ago like I wanted to, we'd have the guy who is replacing Darius in Jacksonville.

    I think so if the price is right and if the contract is not more than couple of years. The one thing that's in our favor and not in his is since it is this late in the offseason and most teams are set on their camp rosters, he may be willing to play on the cheap just to find a job. I'm all for it given the right situation. :clap:

    Come on Marty, pick up the phone!!!

    I'm sure DelRio and Fox have talked.

    Lucky, or smart?

    If Darius can be had for vet min. for a year I'd pick him up. Assuming he can come back from the broken leg. Normally I agree I'd say no, but as thin as this team is at Safety, beggars can't be choosers.

    I emphatically vote yes, if at a decent price.
