Jaguars are all in on winning the Super Bowl after completing three trades in one day to make a title push
The Jacksonville Jaguars made three trades on Monday to strengthen their defence, signalling a push to contend for the Super Bowl this season. At 6-2 and having won five of their last six games, Jacksonville is investing valuable future draft picks in a bid to improve its chances against strong teams in the playoffs.
The Jaguars acquired defensive tackle Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles for a 2027 first-round pick and a 2029 second-round pick. They also traded a second- and fifth-round pick to the Atlanta Falcons for safety Jessie Bates, and a sixth-round pick to the New Orleans Saints for defensive tackle Davon Godchaux. The Eagles, who the article says have the NFC’s worst record, are taking a longer-term approach and hold two first-round picks in both 2027 and 2028, plus two second-round picks in 2029.
In short
- Jacksonville made three defensive trades in one day.
- Jordan Davis cost a 2027 first-round and 2029 second-round pick.
- The 6-2 Jaguars are prioritising a Super Bowl push.
