After the first day of NFL free agency saw over 100 players agree to new contracts, who are the best available free agents on Day 2 for the Jacksonville Jaguars?
In terms of outside additions, it was a quiet first day for the Jaguars. In fact, Jacksonville was one of five teams that did not make an outside signing on Monday.
But we did see the Jaguars re-sign Montaric Brown and Dennis Gardeck on Monday. Devin Lloyd is also headed to Carolina, and Travis Etienne to New Orleans.
Focusing on positions that the Jaguars should still be looking to address, here are Gregg Rosenthal's best available free agents heading into Tuesday.
What's the need? The Jaguars are positioned well here with Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker. However, bolstering the rotation at this position is needed. We may not see Jacksonville spend big at this position, but a low-cost addition could be made.
What's the need? With Lloyd in Carolina, the starting job next to Foye Oluokun is up for grabs. Ventrell Miller or Jack Kiser are options already on the roster, or perhaps James Gladstone chooses to explore free agency and the NFL draft to bolster the depth and competition.
What's the need? Bhayshul Tuten and LeQuint Allen sit at the top of the depth chart, but adding competition for DeeJay Dallas and Ja'Quinden Jackson could be on Gladstone's radar, not to mention that some added experience may be valuable as well.
What's the need? This is arguably the biggest positional need the Jaguars have. Improved depth and more pass-rush juice are needed.
What's the need? The Jaguars are experiencing almost no roster turnover along the offensive line. So, is there a pressing need? Not really. However, for a team that stresses competition up front, I can't rule out an addition either, as Jacksonville looks to be more effective in the run game this season.
