Any player that's played in less than 4 seasons is subject to waivers. If they go unclaimed, then they go to unrestricted free agency. If they've played 4 or more seasons then they aren't eligible for waivers. Also, if you make a waiver claim you pay the player his previous contract amount, rather than negotiate.
So we place a claim on Leonard Fournette, but we'd have to pick up his 4.8 mil base salary (the signing bonus portion would stay on the Jags books).
Plus if we do claim him it says something about Mixon, his migraines and if we are planning to extend him.
I hope we don't claim Fournette even if he is a good RB. I still think Mixon can be better than him.
