The Jacksonville Jaguars have been busy this offseason, especially as it concerns the 2018 NFL Draft — and it’s not really that surprising, considering they have Tom Coughlin heading the front office. We thought it would be helpful to show who they’ve met with so far at the Senior Bowl, NFL Combine, Pro Days, and who they’ve brought in for workouts.

Observations
As of this writing they’ve met with two quarterbacks: Baker Mayfield and Mason Rudolph. The Jaguars have shown extensive interest elsewhere so the first round ain’t gonna happen and unless this team trades up in the second round (which Dave Caldwell loves to do) I think both are long gone before then. It’s not gonna happen this year, folks. We’re riding into 2018 with Blake Bortles, Cody Kessler, and a late-round guy (or UDFA).
But they’ve met with five players multiple times — tight ends Mark Andrews, Ian Thomas, Mike Gesicki, and Hayden Hurst and running back Malik Williams. Williams wasn’t really a dominant force on offense, totaling just 819 yards from scrimmage in two seasons. He’s more known as a kick returner, averaging 22.5 yards per return.
Also, three tackles vs. two guards. I wonder if replacing Jermey Parnell is more a priority than replacing A.J. Cann.
It’s going to be a tight end and offensive lineman in the first two rounds.
