New Headline: Jags' Rampage on the Field Keeps Fans On Edge All Season Long
One week into NFL free agency, let's rank the top three moves -- and non-moves -- made by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
It's been a mostly quiet start to free agency for the Jacksonville Jaguars , with Chris Rodriguez being the only outside addition. GM James Gladstone recently explained the reasoning behind this approach. However, we've also seen the Jaguars re-sign two of their own free agents, while a few others have signed with new teams.
Let's rank the top three moves -- or non-moves -- made by the Jaguars through the first week of NFL free agency. 3. Letting Travs Etienne sign elsewhere Etienne was a big part of the Jaguars' success on offense last season.
He rushed for over 1,100 yards, totaled 14 touchdowns, and was a good fit for Liam Coen's offense. Replacing that production and presence isn't always easy. But with that said, with Etienne signing a four-year, $52 million deal, it was the right decision to let him go.
In terms of total contract value, Etienne is now tied with Josh Jacobs as the highest-paid back in the NFL. By average annual value, he ranks ninth, and he's fifth in guaranteed money, according to OTC . ESPN's Seth Walder placed Etienne in his "overrated" free agent category prior to free agency starting, noting that he generated just 44 yards over expected last season and wasn't on the field all that much on third-and-long situations.
