Who is better out of him and Shane Ray? Denver is declining Ray's option as well.

Where are you getting this?
This option is for next offseason.

They should really re-sign him. He still has a lot of potential and is very young.

They probably will. Here is their statement:

Yeah, just because a team doesn't pick up a player's option doesn't mean they're done with him
Posted on 5/4/18 at 11:34 am to Rand AlThor
Yeah, you're right, they changed it to 2019 now, they had 2018 originally in the article the bastards. Scratch it.

Fowler is better than Ray, Fowler is still an ascending player.

Precisely, it just means the 5th year option is too risky for their current play or health concerns.
Kyle Fuller's 5th year option (8.526m) was declined due to missing the entire 2016 season and inconsistency in 2015, he balled out in 2017. Chicago re-signed him to 4/56m contract this offseason.

Not in this case, Fowler is an up and coming player with a lot of potential still to be tapped.

Jaguars are loaded though defensively, front 7 and all. They got a kid behind Fowler that they really like, so he could be expendable.

Oh I agree, I meant it at most cases. Jags are in a unique situation that Ngakoue is better and is a 3-down DE.
They might not be able to afford to pay him and Fowler, and paying 14.2m for Fowler who plays only 40% of the snaps and your 3rd DE isn't good money management.

He's no Davenport baw
Posted on 5/4/18 at 11:58 am to tubucoco
Crazy these dudes are already going into year 4. Time scoots.
Posted on 5/4/18 at 12:02 pm to SlowFlowPro
I think they would have jumped on that.
Posted on 5/4/18 at 12:04 pm to Hot Carl
Yeah, man, Davenport will be on year 3 before you know it and Kamara his 4th. I'm feeling fricking old, brah.
Posted on 5/4/18 at 12:44 pm to Hot Carl
Right, him getting hurt on their first practice at training camp or something feels like yesterday.
Posted on 5/4/18 at 5:23 pm to GeauxAggie972
not picking up option favors the player jags and Denver are stupid
