Jacksonville's pass defense wasn't too bad last season and the Jags already have Rashean Mathis on the roster, but this is the modern NFL. If a team can't defend the pass, it can't win. Jacksonville has been linked to Gilmore in a big way. He is a strong, physical corner who will be asked to cover the likes of Andre Johnson in the AFC South. Not every team has Gilmore rated this highly, but Jacksonville is high on him and will look to take an early flyer on him in hopes of securing another lockdown corner opposite Mathis. This will also be a highly sought-after selection considering Miami seems to be enamored with Ryan Tannehill, but is there a team with interest in Tannehill and enough ammunition to jump ahead of the Dolphins?
