Maybe the Jags shouuld try the Rams way of building a team. Trade away draft capital

Your roster will always get older trading for seasoned NFL players, and it will get more expensive as most players in a trade want a new contract and considering they're established don't come cheap. Draft picks come with cost controlled contracts which can be very useful to help keep a cap healthy and pursue free agents to fill out a roster. If the trade puts them over the top then great, but this can be dangerous as even a few injuries or decline due to age etc. can be disaster as there will be little recourse to fill holes without a steep dropoff as they'll lack capspace to sign anyone, and wont have draft picks to fill needs. It may workout but it could also unravel if a few bad breaks go their way.

Just get guys who are good at football, draft, free agency, grown in a lab with stemcells. I don't care. Just get people who can actually play.

And retain as many as possible when you do get them, and stop trading them away, alienating them, or otherwise letting them walk.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
