Jags may target Nicholas in Free Agency?

[jonathanlambert33]

As the likelihood of a new collective bargaining agreement inches closer and close, we can actually start looking at potential free agent signings. A player I think is the possibility for the Jacksonville Jaguars is a linebacker who I think would slide right in and be a perfect fit for the Jaguars defense. Atlanta Falcons linebacker Stephen Nicholas just turned 28 years old, so his right in that ripe age bracket for being a long-term signing in free agency. Also worth mentioning is Nicholas is a local product, from Jacksonville, FL and played at Lee High School. He was a starter for the Falcons the past two seasons and was moderately productive.

I'd be somewhat happy with that.

Nicholas is alot better than Russell Allen.

Watching Nicholas a few times a year, he's definitely a serviceable backer. I'd take him on the Saints.

He could fill a need for the Jags and play the role pretty well. This wouldn't be that bad of a move for them if they make this happen.
