Projecting the Jaguars' initial 53-man roster
Blake Bortles attempts a pass.So much can and will change between now and Aug. 23, when the Jaguars will cut from 90 to 75 players and certainly between now and Sept. 4, when they must cut down to 53 players.
Last year at this time, we presumed Mike Brewster would start at center, Josh Wells and Tyler Shatley would fight for a practice squad spot, Dekoda Watson would be an impact outside linebacker and Tandon Doss would return punts.
All of it was wrong. Brewster was cut, Wells and Shatley made the active roster, Watson was a zero and Doss was injured.
This year will include more difficult projections because the Jaguars have added a third draft class and more talented players.
