From Fox Sports-

The Jacksonville Jaguars have shifted their youth movement into another gear.

FOXSports.com has learned that the Jaguars today will release veteran Pro Bowl pass rusher Hugh Douglas just one year after the defensive end signed a large free-agent package with the team.

Jaguars officials said they wanted more youth and speed rushing the edges and didn't think Douglas' situation with the team would get any better.

It's not clear yet who will replace Douglas in the starting lineup. The Jaguars are expected the move later today.

During his nine-year career with the Jets, Eagles and Jaguars, Douglas has totaled 77 sacks

Jeez, after one year and big contract Douglas is out of Jacksonville?

I just wish for once, we could stop picking through every other teams' trash looking for a stand-out defensive end -- and start developing our own. Maybe next year we can get a defensive lineman high in the draft.

If he still has anything left he's worth a look, much more so than Brackens. I wouldn't be surprised if he's brought in for a workout.

I wonder what kind of contract he's looking for?

If he's not looking for a huge deal, hes most defintley worth looking at. Hes not trash, this guy still has a ton of skill. I think we should take a look, but if its a wrong deal, its not worth it.

33 years old and only 3.5 sacks and 27 tackles last year... Obviously Jax didn't think it was going to get much better. At this point he's only a situational pass rusher.

I hope we bring him in for a look. I was watching the training camp special on the Jags and he looked like he was in great shape and if we were going to give up Gardner, Betts, and a pick for Ogun I wouldn't be suprised if we give him a look.
