Twitter: Jaguars release WR Allen Hurns

[Risen Star]

Could be a guy the Cowboys have interest in.

 

[jazzcat22]

Bring him in for a look, can't hurt.

Seems to have had a similar type career to Sammy Watkins, but "strong market" should eliminate Dallas.

Or the "market" teams already signed the other WR's, so not many teams left to be in the hunt for a WR.

 

[dagreat1_87]

im willing to give anybody who had blake bortles for a qb a shot....he's had a quite a bit of injuries tho, hasn't he?

 

[Carson]

Maybe he will sign for a one year, 2 million dollar deal!!!

My question is why is he being let go? I mean who do the Jags have at WR with Hurns and Robinson being goine?

 

[Risen Star]

A couple of years ago he had a 1,000 yard season with 10 TDs.

26 years old. 6'3" 200 lbs.

IF people are not happy with Dez here is Hurns Combine report

http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/allen-hurns?id=2543817

Weaknesses
Narrow-framed and non-physical. Struggles to separate against tight man coverage. Lacks polish and precision in his routes. Average burst out of his breaks. Is not a burner -- limited long speed. Soft blocker.

Bottom Line
An underneath, zone receiver, Hurns emerged as the Hurricanes' top go-to receiver as a senior. Runs a lot of simple, stationary, short-to-intermediate routes and could have a more difficult time shaking NFL cornerbacks.

Could be. Does he want money though?

They signed Moncrief to an outrageous deal. I guess they had to cut him.

I can't wait until Fleming signs so I can throw it in your face.

Risen I think that was more a case of Jax being so bad they were always passing, think of the inflated stats that made RW11 look good because of garbage time stats.

That deal was ridiculous.

The love Dede Westbrook
Marquis Lee too

And, of course, Moncrief

 

[CATCH17]

Very odd that they would release him and let Allen Robinson walk as well.

For good players, I think there's always a market willing to pay more than Dallas.

 

[Stash]

His 4-year $40 million extension was a joke. They screwed up by not giving that deal to Allen Robinson when they could have. I'm surprised it took the Jags even this long to cut Hurns.

Drafted by the previos regime...

Then why did he out perform Marqise Lee their fancy 2nd round pick? Why didn't the yards and TDs go to him?
