2 WR Options for Jaguars After 53-Man Roster Cuts

1. Marquez Valdes-Scantling

If the Jacksonville Jaguars want another veteran presence in their wide receiver room, they could look at the trading block. However, there is one experienced pass-catcher available who didn't make a 53-man roster — Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who was cut by the Seattle Seahawks.

MVS struggling to make the roster for another team with a shallow WR rotation is a bit of a red flag, but he fits the profile for what the Jaguars are seeking. At 6'4", he offers a huge target for Trevor Lawrence in the middle of the field, outside the numbers, and in the end zone. He was decently productive last season for the Buffalo Bills and New Orleans Saints, grabbing 19 catches for 411 yards and four scores. He could be a solid, cheap addition for Jacksonville who would be happy to play a role as a depth piece.

2. Tru Edwards

If the Jaguars wanted to go the other way and acquire a young player with potential, they should look at Tru Edwards. He didn't test at the NFL Combine, but he's 6'3" with a self-reported 40-inch vertical. That could make him an elite jump ball threat for Trevor Lawrence.

In his final collegiate season for Louisiana Tech, he led Conference USA with 84 catches, going for 986 yards and six touchdowns. This past preseason, he pulled in four receptions for 57 yards and a score for the Los Angeles Rams. Jacksonville shouldn't have much competition for him on the waiver wire, and he could turn out to be a value add with potential to turn into something more.
