Jaguars lock up Brandon Linder with five-year extension

The Jaguars may not be sure if Blake Bortles is their quarterback for the long term, but they seem to be pretty certain that Brandon Linder is the guy they want snapping the ball.

Jacksonville announced that they have signed starting center Brandon Linder to a five-year extension.

“It was something we wanted to get done so now we can just ball,” Linder said, via Ryan O’Halloran of the Florida Times-Union. “We knew after OTAs we wanted to talk. In the past two weeks [we] got some traction.”

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Jaguars have signed their starting center to the deal is worth up to $51.7 million. The deal also reportedly includes $24 million in guaranteed money.

Linder’s deal puts him at the very top of the salary scale for centers with his average salary per year coming in above what Travis Frederick got in his 2016 extension from the Cowboys.

Linder, who was selected in the third round of the 2014 draft, opened his career at guard in Jacksonville before moving over to center last season. He made 14 starts and it would appear he made a strong impression on Doug Marrone, who was his position coach before moving up to head coach after Gus Bradley was fired last season.
 
Good for B-Lind. Jags did what the Dolphins hardly ever do. Lock up there young talent before they get priced out of the market when they becomes UFAs. They did the same with Hurns.

If this doesnt give motivation to guys like McDerm or Darling to step up and get going this year nothing will. Linder was no All American when he left UM but worked himself into the highest paid C in the league.
 
Every time one of our guys gets a big contract it needs to be sent out to all these recruits.

I genuinely think a lot of them have a perceived idea about Miami & Coaches from other programs use it to manipulate them.

It should be the main selling point in recruiting, if you really wanna get paid, come to The U.

The only competent O-linemen on the Jags. Good thing Marq Williams will be helping Linder clear the way.

FIFY
 
This is no different than Hurns, Shields, and many other players of the last decade. We have had the talent, we just havent had the coaching (until last year).
