4 players Jacksonville Jaguars could select with 2nd overall pick in 2021

The Jaguars need help at linebacker. Myles Jack remains a stud and Joe Schobert has been solid, but the group could use a facelift. This year, they’ve tried both Dakota Allen and Kamalei Correa but neither of them has had fared well. Dylan Moses could make the team’s linebacker corps a strength.

In six games this season, Moses has registered 46 total tackles, five of them for a loss, a sack, and an interception. While it’s uncommon for an organization to select a linebacker high in the draft, the Alabama playmaker has the athletic prowess and football instincts to thrive at the pro level.

This Jacksonville team is bad at pressuring the quarterback, but how bad is it? After ten weeks of football, they rank 32nd in sacks in the NFL with sacks. While a defense’s success goes beyond quarterback takedowns, an effective pass rush has a positive effect on the rest of the defense.

Josh Allen hasn’t been himself in 2020 and needs help. The Jaguars can’t expect the sophomore to be their only source of pass rush, so they must get reinforcements, and Miami’s Gregory Rousseau could be that player. The defensive end is a bit raw and still needs to work on his craft, but his ceiling is pretty high. The Hurrican defender could be the pass rusher the ‘Jags’ need in their defensive line.
