The Jacksonville Jaguars can’t pass up on this d-lineman in free agency
In a league where the rules are heavily tilted in the favor of the offense, there aren’t a lot of ways for the defense to fight back. All too often, their role in a game is to slow down the bleeding, not stop it. Dominating on that side of the ball has become more and more rare.
But that doesn’t mean it can’t happen. In fact, we’ve seen a few examples in recent years where...
Blackmon Released, Idzik Joins Jaguars Staff

The Jacksonville Jaguars need to step up
The Jacksonville Jaguars have been an utter embarrassment. Jacksonville has not made the playoffs since 2007 and even worse, has failed to make any real effort to get there. The Jaguars have turned off legions of fans in Florida, forcing the team to tarp off the upper deck of EverBank Field.
After going 9-39 over the past three campaigns, Jacksonville now faces a critical offseason...

Jacksonville Jaguars free agency preview: Time to get defensive
Rebuilding the Jacksonville Jaguars has been quite the task for general manager Dave Caldwell and head coach Gus Bradley.
Entering their third year in town, the staff looks to put together a roster that can contend in the division. With emerging young receivers -- Denard Robinson, Allen Hurns, Denard Robinson and Justin Blackmon -- expect Cecil Shorts to hit the open market.

Can the Jacksonville Jaguars afford to pass up on an offensive lineman in free agency?
It’s a tough position to evaluate. There aren’t a lot of stats to help with the cause. Styles of play can sometimes skew opinions. And the difference between a win and a loss on any given play isn’t always black and white.
But what is clear is that it’s a vital position. Whether a team is run-first or pass-happy, the ability to control the line of scrimmage is the key to...
Bucs find their assistant DL coach

Is Jacksonville Jaguars QB Blake Bortles given a chance in this week’s QB Rankings?
Quarterback is the most important position in all of sports. That’s why teams are so willing to pony up big bucks to a signal caller when they have (or think they have) a guy who can do the job. One look at the highest paid players in the NFL will support this fact; it’s a list littered with QBs.
But part of the equation is also tied to supply and demand. Sometimes, teams are...

Jacksonville Jaguars climb in the latest Power Rankings
The offseason is only unofficially upon us, as teams have made coaching and front office changes, released players to create cap space, made decisions on their own pending free agents, and started evaluating draft prospects.
As a result, teams look slightly different now than they did when the regular season ended. And that means it’s time to once again grade each franchise in...
Report: Jaguars to aggressively pursue Julius Thomas
With about $60 million in cap space, the Jacksonville Jaguars are likely going to be big-time players in free agency. So it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that multiple reports are indicating that the team will pursue Denver Broncos tight end Julius Thomas when free agency gets going next month.
ESPN’s Cecil Lammey indicated on Monday that the Jaguars have “strong interest”...

Should the Jacksonville Jaguars consider a TE in the NFL draft?
It may not seem like a glamourous position, as tight end is still viewed by many as a job that is as much about being an offensive lineman as it is a wide receiver. But that’s a notion that is quickly changing, becoming more and more outdated with each passing season.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Learning from the Combine

Until the winning starts there has to be something other than promise to endear him to the fans and there is--his style on the field is just like how he is off the field.He fears nothing...

Report: Jaguars interested in trading first-round pick
The Jacksonville Jaguars possessed the third overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft, eventually selecting quarterback Blake Bortles.
Unable to improve its record on the field this past season, Jacksonville now boasts the third overall pick once again in 2015. This also gives general manager David Caldwell more flexibility to potentially trade down in the draft.
Caldwell elaborated...
Jacksonville interested in moving down in draft, trading third overall pick
This time of year, every GM is seeing what is available for his team in terms of moving up and down in the NFL Draft. While most interest is just curiosity, it seems that the Jacksonville Jaguars have a legitimate desire to move down in the first round.
After securing a quarterback with the No. 3 pick in last year’s draft, Jaguars general manager David Caldwell finds himself more...
