To clear the record, I hated the Benson signing (see here: <a href="http://wp.me/p29VCs-9r" target="_blank">http://wp.me/p29VCs-9r</a>). And I'm not in favor of S. Jax because he's a big name. I'm in favor of him because, though he's old and definitely has a lot of mileage, the guy still produces at a clip we've not seen here in years. Over the last four years, he's not played in less than 15 games, and amasses 1,400+ yards - and that's on a terrible team. There's nothing to suggest he can't continue to produce, especially when he'd be on a much better team.  I'm not expecting him to be a Pro Bowler. But, we don't need that. He's dependable, and both effective gaining the tough yards and catching it out of the backfield. If his price is depreciated because of his age and mileage, he could be a big coup for this team. Imagine the thunder/lightning combo of Jax and Harris. It'd be a legitimate running attack, and one that'd finally force defenses to honor.  Remember, many people said the same thing about Corey Dillon when the Pats signed him and he turned in a few very productive seasons for them during their SB years. S. Jax could have a similar impact on this team.</blockquote>
