The Jacksonville Jaguars saw a lot of turnover in their receiving corps this past offseason. Gone were Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns — the top two receivers (at least on the depth chart) in the past few seasons. Kept was a reorganized group that sees Marqise Lee as its senior member
Black A.J. Bouye Jerseys , free agent Donte Moncrief as the new addition, and second-year guys Keelan Cole and Dede Westbrook who showed promise in their rookie season.I thought Hurns could be a guy traded or even released, but I always thought a deal with Robinson would get done. Now it’s a new look group of receivers who also have second round rookie DJ Chark thrown into the mix.This week, we’re taking a look at several aspects of this year’s Jaguars team with the help of Football Outsider’s Andrew Potter who was kind enough to share his thoughts on why the team may have moved away from Robinson and Hurns and what the specific strengths are of this new group of receivers.Potter brings up a good point about Cole likely leading the team in receiving yards again. Lee and Moncrief have been used primarily as short timing throws near the sideline or over the middle — important catches to extend drives
A.J. Bouye Jerseys 2019 , but not the big plays we saw last year out of Cole.What do you think? How do you see this receiving corps shaking out by season’s end?

Black Calais Campbell Jerseys , however unlike Ramsey, Smith has already received a new contract and is right in the meat of it. It’s a bit peculiar that Smith is in attendance and was called out by VP Tom Coughlin. Jimmy Siettmann wrote earlier this week that the Jaguars shouldn’t trade Smith, but could he be on the trading block?From SI’s Albert Breer:Personally, I don’t think the Jaguars move on from Smith this season. Cutting him prior to June 1 would cost more in dead money than his cap hit and cutting him after or trading him only saves you about $4.5 million in cap room. What kind of return would you get for a player like Smith
Calais Campbell Jerseys 2019 , anyway?Sure, Smith made the Pro Bowl and was second-team All Pro in 2017, but overall his play has been very up and down, coming off a down season in 2018. Not only that
Black Keelan Cole Jerseys , but he’s a very limited defender in that he’s a weakside linebacker only. He wouldn’t hold up inside at the middle and isn’t a fit at all at strongside. How many teams are on the lookout for an undersized WLB-only? If they are, what are they going to give up for it?As mentioned, I think Smith plays out 2019 with the Jaguars and then the team makes a decision, but perhaps it’s something to watch on draft weekend.
