But that is percent improvement. Jaguars started way behind the Titans and Colts, so it is kind of misleading. Plus most of the team last year were back up level players forced to start due to injuries and roster construction.
It is a necessary step forward to make this team watchable/competitive, but only a first step.

No idea but maybe with the way deals have been done these days he could be interested in a one year deal or something like that.
I would take a look at Kerrigan personally. Experienced veteran, fits the scheme, won't demand a big contract and is still productive with limited snaps. Could be good in the rotation.

Winners: Jacksonville Jaguars
First-year head coach Urban Meyer has begun to shape his roster down in Jacksonville. To start things off on Tuesday, the Jaguars agreed to terms on a three-year, $40 million deal with former Seattle Seahawks cornerback Shaquill Griffin. Despite missing four regular-season games in 2020, Griffin recorded a career-high three interceptions, 12 pass deflections and 63 combined tackles. The Seahawks passed on utilizing the franchise tag on him, and now have paid the price.
Hours later, the Jags made a bigger splash by snagging former Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones -- reportedly giving him a two-year deal worth $14.5 million. While he just turned 31, Jones caught a career-high 76 passes for 978 yards and nine touchdowns in 2020. He's also the only player in the NFL who has caught at least nine touchdown passes in each of the last two seasons.
To cap things off, the Jaguars traded with the New Orleans Saints for defensive lineman Malcolm Brown, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, who was set to be released as a cap casualty. The defensive tackle had been a consistent presence on New Orleans' defensive line, and should play a role in stuffing the run with Jacksonville immediately.
I haven't seen a more universally lauded free agency move this year than our signing of Marvin Jones.
He's up there, but the two most lauded I've seen were Johnson III and Lawson. Two elite players who got several million less AAV than projected.

This just shows how much adding quantity over quality can skew things. Nearly everyone is saying the Pats have been extremely unwise and reckless in their spending, yet simply because they signed so many people they're leading the list. The Redskins and Jets have legit had awesome FA periods, Jackson and Lawson have been two of the best signings. Ours has been decent but is mostly just because we signed so much quantity like the Pats.
Jaguars' James O'Shaughnessy: Re-ups in Jacksonville

To me, just my opinion of course, but that is very good news. We had a huge hole at TE, and no prospects as of now, so re-signing a guy I consider underrated is very big.
I finally heard a negative review of the Jaguars' free agency from a talking head.
Deangelo Hall was saying the Jaguars were too quiet, but his focus was solely on the lack of OL help. He felt the team should have done more to help Trevor Lawrence.

Send us the same offer they offered for Russell Wilson and we'll think about it.

I would jump for joy if the Bears even gave up half that amount for Gardner Minshaw II.

I know, right!
Heck I'd be happy if they gave us the 3rd round pick Seattle spent to get Wilson in the first place.
A 3rd or maybe 4th I’d do it
