The Jaguars released 5 players to get their active roster to 75 players. WR John Broussard WR Jeron Harvey WR Clyde Edwards DE Alex Boston TE Isaac Smolko None of the cuts are that surprising as these players were really nothing more than camp bodies.

Commentary: Jaguars Don’t Look Like a Super Bowl Team Yet
 
Let me preface this by saying that the bar has been set much higher for the Jaguars this year. Being in the mix for a playoff spot isn’t enough. This off-season, championship expectations developed and so it is against that backdrop that I say this. The Jaguars don’t strike me as a championship team. Here’s why: The three main areas that needed improvement from last ...

On The Jack Del Rio Show Tuesday evening on WOKV , the head coach said that the lack of a contract for the first round pick wasn’t the fault of the former Gator, but instead, it’s all about Harvey’s agent, Ken Kremer. “Obviously, it has gone on quite a while and there’s a great deal of money ...

Jaguars Report: Loss to Miami Raises Concerns
 
The Jaguars 19-14 loss to Miami was worse than the final score would indicate. Jacksonville trailed 13-0 by halftime, when most of the starters were in the game. The Jaguars starters played so poorly, that may of them asked Jack Del Rio to play in the third quarter, but that wasn’t part of the plan, so the starters didn’t return after halftime. The following were the questions ...

What to Watch For: Jaguars vs. Dolphins
 
Saturday night, the Jaguars host the Dolphins in the second preseason game of the year. Here’s what I’ll be watching for: Will Fred Taylor play? I’m not sure its all that important for Taylor to play at all in the preseason. After he didn’t play at all last week, the Jaguars Pro Bowl running back might get a few carries against the Dolphins. Last week, running ...

Jags Fullback Greg Jones Back to Form
 
If you made a list of Jack Del Rio’s favorite players, Greg Jones would be near the top of the list. The Jaguars fullback is tough, fearless, unselfish and just does his job. He’s a good soldier and a very good fullback. He’s also dealt with a pair of knee surgeries, one in college at Florida State, the other two years ago after blowing out his ACL in the preseason.  ...

Jags Looking to Go Deep
 
During the Jaguars preseason opener, the depe passing game was just a rumor. The longest completed pass of the evening was a 22 yard David Garrard-to-Matt Jones hookup in the first quarter. That could change this week as free agent signee Troy Williamson will get on the field for the first time in a Jaguars uniform. Williamson didn’t play in Saturday’s preseason opener ...

Matt Jones Has Inside Track on a Roster Spot
 
I did find it interesting that he was clean shaven and appeared to have gotten a hair cut. Clearly, he’s trying to put his best foot forward. Jones’ trial date is set for October 10, but I think its likely that the case will never go to trial. I’m expecting some kind of a plea bargain before then. The sooner this is resolved, the sooner Jones can focus on keeping a ...
