With a franchise quarterback now on the roster in Trevor Lawrence, the Jacksonville Jaguars are in a position where they must prioritize fixing the offensive line this offseason. That should especially be the case after watching how it was a big issue for the Cincinnati Bengals that most will argue kept them from winning the Super Bowl.
In 2021, the Jags’ offensive line played on nearly the same level as Cincinnati’s and that must change soon if the team is to have success under new coach Doug Pederson. Furthermore, they are in a situation where three of their starting lineman are pending free agents anyway in left tackle Cam Robinson, left guard Andrew Norwell, and right guard A.J. Cann.
That said, the Jags at best should use this as an opportunity to get new starters in at least two of those positions, and most have pointed to the guard spots as the most likely to be upgraded. That has led to many fans being intrigued by Brandon Scherff of the Washington Commanders, who has been one of the league’s best interior linemen for a while and is a pending free agent.
