With free agency and the draft behind us, the key acquisition periods for the NFL have been over for some time now, but that doesn’t mean teams still can’t land key contributors. There are still some notable free agents on the market who could help a team, and that’s especially the case for a team like the Jags, who had the worst record in the NFL last season.
When looking at how the offseason went, the Jags’ defense came out of it with the most upgrades. They started things in free agency by landing a starter in linebacker Foyesade Oluokun and a probable starter in defensive lineman Folorusu Fatukasi. They also landed a player who will be a big-time contributor in the secondary in cornerback Darious Williams, who could be the team’s starting nickelback.
Then in the draft, the team spent five of its seven picks on defense. Their first two picks were linebackers Travon Walker and Devin Lloyd, then in the third round, they added another linebacker in Chad Muma. Then with their last two draft picks, they added depth to the secondary with the addition of cornerbacks Gregory Junior and Montaric Brown.
