Jaguars' Exciting New Star Dominates Pro Day With a Shocking Performance!

It's been a quiet start to free agency for the Jacksonville Jaguars , but James Gladstone expects to enter the NFL draft in late April with one element that every general manager covets: Flexibility. Rather than Gladstone feeling like he must address a certain position or two at a specific point, he can let the board do dictate who the Jaguars select. When teams can get in trouble is when they feel the urgency to select a specific position, which can lead to reaching and overdrafting a prospect.

"I think the best way to sort of think about that is right now what we've structured it to be is that we don't have to pick based off of need necessarily at any specific spot," Gladstone said recently. "That's a luxury. "I think when I was with the Los Angeles Rams, there were too many drafts, and I got to live this, where you felt pressed to take a specific position, and there were instances where it worked out fine for us.

There were instances where it didn't. And that may just be the draft. It may just be the way those specific situations unfolded.

" Although the Jaguars haven't made an abundance of signings in free agency, the moves they have made have provided them with that coveted flexibility. Re-signing Montaric Brown helped solidify the cornerback unit. Bringing back Dennis Gardeck gives the Jaguars their starting SAM linebacker, while Quintin Morris can resume his role as TE2, providing the all-important blocking presence to Liam Coen's offense.
