Roster Moves: Jaguars Sign OL Blake Hance, S Matthew Jackson and WR Louis Rees-Zammit (exempt list) to the Practice Squad

I had hoped for some Baalkie magic, but alas none.

This is a good roster (including the practice squad)


We all know the season will only go so far as..

1. Ryan Nielson's defense
2. Trevor Lawrence

..goes.

TWO more games a season is all the Jags need to figure out.   11 wins.

It's obtainable. Vegas has us at 7.5 or 8.5 on the year I believe. I would take the over on that bet. Our schedule is not as tough as it was last year. A lot of our injuries happened in bunches as well. It really hindered a lot of things, as it typically does for most teams. 

I really think Lawrence will finally find himself this year, especially in this offense. It's year four for him. Year three now with the same staff. People forget he's still relatively young for the position. 

I expect a top 5 MVP conversation type of year out of him. Especially if he cuts his yearly total in turnovers by half. Nielsen's defense will be better than whatever it was Caldwell was trying to do. 

His track record is impressive going back to New Orleans and his ability to get the most out of his defensive line is what got him the job in Atlanta and now the job down here. Should see huge dividends early up front.
