NFL Network's Adam Schefter reports that the Jaguars agreed to terms with Jerry Porter on a six-year, $30 million contract, with $10 million guaranteed.
That's almost reasonable in this market. Jacksonville likes their wideouts bulky and Porter will help in the red zone, hurting Reggie Williams. Porter will start, probably opposite Williams or Matt Jones, with Dennis Northcutt in the slot. Porter should be a solid starter, their nominal "number one," but his fantasy potential is limited to WR3/4 status in a conservative spread-the-wealth offense. Troy Williamson's chance to make an impact just went down

Corey Williams' six-year contract with the Browns is with $38 million and includes $16.3 million in guarantees.
It's nearly a million per year less and a whopping $8.25 million in fewer guarantees than the deal Oakland gave Tommy Kelly, which is drawing laughs around the NFL. Wiliams will be the Browns' left end this season.

Is that a mistake? They are playing him at DE?

It's not a mistake. He'll be a DE in their 3-4 defense.

I like Porter, and think he would have done well here...
but have his numbers justified that kind of contract? I dont think so.

Ahh yes, forgot they ran a 3-4.
Good teams getting better in Cleveland and Jacksonville.
