REPORTS OF FLORENCE TO JAGS PREMATURE
Posted by Mike Florio on February 29, 2008, 9:22 p.m.
In response to a report from the San Diego Union-Tribune that cornerback Drayton Florence has a deal “all but done†with the Jags, a league source tells us that a deal is not imminent, or close.
Florence will visit with the Jags on Saturday, and he might work out a deal with them. But we’re told that he’s scheduling other visits and talking with other teams and isn’t poised to sign with the Jaguars, or anyone.
With Asante Samuel signed and Marcus Trufant and Nnamdi Asomougha wearing the franchise tag, Florence is arguably the best free-agent option on the market at the position.
