Jaguars Eyeing Defensive Linemen and a Tight End in the NFL Draft?
The Jacksonville Jaguars could pursue several defensive linemen and a tight end in the 2026 NFL Draft, according to John Shipley of Jaguars OnSI. Shipley's story acknowledged that the Jaguars want more players who can get after the quarterback. He wrote that the defensive line "is where the Jaguars can take the biggest leap as a team" and explained that pairing a young pass-rusher with Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker would take this unit to the next level. Meanwhile, Shipley noted that the Jaguars view Brenton Strange as one of the most underrated tight ends in football, so they're not looking to replace him. Rather, they'd like to add a second tight end who can complement Strange's skill set and truly elevate the position group. Beyond Strange on the depth chart, the Jaguars have uninspiring tight end options in Quinton Morris and Hunter Long. It's too early to tell which players the Jaguars could target, especially since they don't currently have a first-round pick in 2026. However, we can't rule out the possibility of general manager James Gladstone getting creative and pulling off draft-day trades to make a splash at these two areas of need.
