O-Line Personnel May Not Change (according to O'Halloran)

#18

2013 Rotoworld ranked Jaguars Offensive line at 25 in the NFL

 

25. Jacksonville Jaguars (5)


2012 Run Block Rankings: 21, 18

2012 Pass Block Rankings: 30, 22


LT: Eugene Monroe

LG: Will Rackley*

C: Brad Meester

RG: Uche Nwaneri

RT: Luke Joeckel*

Super Sub: G/C Mike Brewster

Overview: The presence of Pro Bowl-caliber left tackle Monroe, healthy return of 2011 rookie starter Rackley, and addition of Joeckel give Jacksonville's offensive line some credibility, even if it remains a probable bottom-ten unit. Longtime center Meester turned 36 in March and Nwaneri is recovering from knee surgery. Rackley missed all of last season with a severe high ankle sprain that required surgery. While this line should be better now, it's hard to forget that Jacksonville allowed the third most sacks in football (50) last season and ranked 24th in yards per rushing attempt (3.82). Still, there are reasons to believe this front five can at least be serviceable enough to give the Jags a puncher's chance of playing competitive offense, assuming they keep Maurice Jones-Drew healthy and somehow scrounge together passable quarterback play.

In june of 2014 bleacher report ranked Jaguars at #31 in the NFL with Oline

Joeckel missed 11 games in his rookie season with an ankle injury, but he was starting to show major flashes before that time. And now that he's back at his natural position of left tackle, he'll shine. Joeckel, at the time he was drafted, had the highest grade I had ever given an offensive tackle.

The Jaguars have plenty of potential here, and right tackle Austin Pasztor is a fun young guy to watch down the road, but this group is still trying to find chemistry and consistency. Rookie Brandon Linder, a third-round pick, doesn't add much, given his predraft grade at 259 overall.

So.... what do you think most would grade the current Jaguars OLine at in the NFL?
