Carlos Hyde is scheduled to make a base salary of $3.25m, no bonus amortization, and a roster/workout bonus of $1.5m if they decide to keep him, for a total cap hit of $4.75m.  If released, he will have no dead money hit, but a sting knowing that the organization gave up a 5th round draft choice for him.  

Corey Grant will be a free agent.  He was making a base salary of $2.9m this year.  

TJ Yeldon will be a free agent.  He was making a base salary of $1.24m this year, and counted $1.88 against this year's cap when figuring in signing bonus amortization.

David Williams has a base salary and cap hit of $570k in 2019, and no dead money if released.  

Financially, LF will be on the roster at least one more year.  With LF's injury prone ways, and the 5th round draft choice investment, having Hyde on the roster for another season seems likely.  I don't believe TC or DC gave up a 5th unless they planned to keep him more than just the remainder of the 2018 season.  They will make an offer to retain the versatile Yeldon , but I think some team will pay him more than the Jag's will be willing to pay (especially if they keep the expensive Hyde).  Grant suffered a Lisfranc foot injury, that if significant displacement occurred, it can take more than a year to fully recover.  Without knowing the extent of the injury, I think they try to bring Grant back on a less expensive prove-it contract, but again I think some team will give him more money and promised opportunity and he will be gone.  David Williams will battle for the 3rd down back spot with a late round or undrafted rookie.
