4 free agents the Jaguars could sign before the 2022 NFL Draft
The Jacksonville Jaguars did a pretty good job of replenishing their roster in free agency, adding players that should go on to have key roles. Moreover, they will have a chance to continue hoarding talent in the 2022 NFL Draft.
The Jaguars should be able to fill their remaining holes in the draft but if they want to, they could still sign a few free agents. They currently have around $6.8 million in cap space and still need to sign their rookie class. However, with some creative accounting, they could acquire any of these four players.
No. 1 free agent the Jaguars can still sign – Billy Price, OG.
Brandon Scherff, who signed a three-year deal worth $49.5 million, will play right guard in Jacksonville. This doesn’t come as a surprise though, as that’s where he’s lined up throughout most of his career. There’s no doubt the Jags’ offensive line will get a boost thanks to his addition but the team’s brass needs to fill the void left by Andrew Norwell’s departure in free agency.
Ben Bartch will most likely get the chance to replace Norwell but the Jags could bring in some competition to ensure they have the best player available at left guard. Billy Price hasn’t found a team yet and he could contribute right out of the gate, having made 15 starts for the New York Giants last season.
A former first-round pick, Price hasn’t lived up to expectations in his young career but he could come to Jacksonville and compete with Bartch for the left guard job.
