JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) The Jacksonville Jaguars signed rookie safety Andre Cisco on Thursday, leaving four of the team's nine draft picks without contracts. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence (first round), running back Travis Etienne (first), cornerback Tyson Campbell (second) and offensive tackle Walker Little (second) remain unsigned as the team prepares for a mandatory, three-day minicamp next week.

When evaluating the Jacksonville Jaguars 2020 season and where exactly things went wrong and led to the worst record in franchise history, most point their fingers at two things: Quarterback play and the pass defense.
The Jaguars have done their part to fix the quarterback play, hiring Urban Meyer, Darrell Bevell and Brian Schottenheimer to mentor No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence. They have invested in the secondary as well, signing Shaquill Griffin and Rayshawn Jenkins and drafting Tyson Campbell at No. 33 overall.
But there is one area the Jaguars have left relatively untouched, with the team s pass-rush unit off the edge set to compose of the same players from last year aside from free agent Jihad Ward and fourth-round pick on Jordan Smith.

Every year after the draft, I write a way-too-long review of each team’s draft. The purpose of this draft review is to give predictions for the careers of each team’s drafted players. The vast majority of 4th-7th round picks don t amount to much, so I stick to the first three rounds. I’ve watched films of each player I’m commenting on and have over seven years of NCAA coaching experience. Draft grades are overly optimistic and unrealistic. Unlike the majority of post-draft coverage out there, I will pick busts. Keep in mind that 19% of all first-round picks bust.
