Nothing particularly surprising here.  Good teams want to keep their roster together while really bad teams want to rebuild with new players.  We also had a lot of draft picks over the last couple of years and wanted to hang on to most of them to see if they can develop.  You also factor that the Jaguars spent more in free agency in 2022 than any other team.  There is usually a lot of dead money if you cut a player after only one year into a multi-year contract.  Our free agents also, as a whole, played well last year, so there was little reason to cut them.  You then factor in the salary cap situation.  The Jaguars came into the offseason over the cap.  As such, they didn't have much to spend on new players.  They did clear up some money, but I think they were reluctant to push too much salary dollars into 2024 given that Trevor would be eligible for a long-term extension plus other free agents will need to be signed including Ridley and possibly others such as Johs Allen.  All of this contributed to keeping largely the same roster together.
