4. player. 52. I thought the Jacksonville Jaguars would be much better than they are two games in. It’s not to late to turn things around but at 0-2 they need to show me they can win to move them.

But unfortunately, all over the yard has been to the other team way too often. Bortles threw 17 interceptions as a rookie, 18 last year and has three already this year.</p><div class=. RB. LSU. Leonard Fournette

The Jaguars need to ask Bortles to do a little less while taking care of the ball and resting his defense. That requires running the ball more but the Jaguars aren’t getting much out of their running backs these days. T.J. Yeldon is a disappiontment to date and Chris Ivory has had an illness.

So in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Jaguars select running back Leonard Fournett to put an end to that trouble. Then, Bortles will turn the ball over less as he won’t have to do as much as he has to now. And the defense will be even better making the team hard to beat on 2017.
