Wow. What a week. Six players joined the Jaguars on the second day of NFL Free Agency. Julius Thomas, Jared Odrick, Jermey Parnell, Davon House, Dan Skuta and Sergio Brown will now all be calling Jacksonville home. Wide receiver and return specialist Bryan Walters joined the squad on Friday. Fans were ecstatic to see all of the new faces joining their favorite team, and the players were just as happy. All of these transactions left the media with plenty to tweet about. It was an exciting time at EverBank Field.

Player POV

The newest Jaguars showed different ways to express their excitement about playing in front of Duval.

Bryan Walters, a wide receiver and return specialist that spent the three seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, signed with the Jaguars on Friday.

...love and support throughout my time. Seattle will always be my home. But I am excited for this opportunity with the @Jaguars. Thanks 12s!

Reporter Roundup

All of the signings and press conferences gave media members plenty to tweet about.

Jaguars have made a major move in perception this offseason in that they're attractive to free agents. That's a big deal.

Hear the same thing about #Jaguars in FA as I did while they searched for coaches: Things have changed. People want to go there now.

All of the Free Agency excitement left this little guy tired.

Classic meme.

With so many folks talking about the Jaguars' moves, it was tough define whether some handles fit into one of the three usual categories. Team employees, agents, the world's best mascot and more are in this group.
