Jags expected to Part ways with Malik Jackson

First, there aren't that many players traded in the NFL.  Second, Malik has a high salary for a DT.  Third, he's coming off an awful season where he was benched. 

 Why would any team give up picks for a backup DT on a bad team who is earning high starter pay?  Especially when the 2019 draft is loaded with D-linemen?  There are going to be good D-lineman available all the way through the 4th round for cheap.

He wasn't benched. He lost some snaps late in the season to a rookie the staff wanted to develop in the rotation.

He also pressured QBs at a decent pace in several games.  Not as consistently as 2017, but not terrible by any means. 

It was his play vs the run that took a hit more than anything - and it's not teal kool aid to attribute some of that to him dropping too much weight.
