Training Camp-Vets arrive

#16

One battle I did not mention, but quite possibly the most important one, is at WR.

If the Jaguars keep five, it would seem the 5 are

Lee
Chark
Westbrook
Cole
Moncrief

However, if the Jaguars keep 6, the question is who do they keep?

To me it seems the top three candidates are

Jaydon Mickens
Rashad Greene
Allen Lazard

in that order.

To me, Mickens has recently demonstrated explosive return ability as well as the ability to contribute some in the passing game.

Greene exhibited those same traits as a rookie, but has since had a down year ending in an achilles injury, spending last year on IR. While he has more size than Mickens, I have my doubts about his ability post achilles injury. I'd be far more confident in his ability to return to form if he had an ACL tear.

Lazard seems to be the longshot as a rookie UDFA. He is the biggest of these three receivers, and based upon his build, he would seem to offer a red zone threat. However, he does not appear to offer any return ability, so if he were going to make this team, he'd either have to prove to be an exceptional WR, or he'd have to contribute on special teams some other way, barring something way bad or unusual happening.

Now if the Jaguars go with five WRs, Westbrook, Lee and Chark also have demonstrated return ability, though I wouldn't want to see Chark returning punts.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
