Hall of Famer
There Is A New Owner In Jacksonville!!
Shahid Khan has sold the Jaguars!! The news just broke a few minutes ago. The new owner stepping in is Chris BigTex. BigTex is known as the previous Cleveland Browns owner and he did a bang up job with that organization, but now it is a whole new regime coming into Jacksonville. Fans here are hungry, and for the first time in many years they actually have a decent team.

While the Jags are not going to be immediate contenders, They have a few good starting pieces. BigTex gives Khan props over the past few drafts building a young team that has the potential to be something special. Look for BigTex to make some key moves in free agency and the draft over the next couple of seasons to turn this team into an AFC powerhouse.

There are 3 pieces to this team that BigTex describes as the anchor to the foundation of a good team. Here are those 3 pieces:

HB Chris Ivory

Chris Ivory is a new addition to the team this year, and the man is just an absolute monster. When he runs he puts his head down and hits the defense before they hit him. He is a punishing runner. When he falls down, he gains 2 yards. He will be crucial in taking pressure off of Blake Bortles so Blake can run the offense down the field to score. With TJ Yeldon and Denard Robinson behind Ivory, this team's HB core is about as good as they come. Should be interesting to see how the control the ground game.

Young Athletic Defense

The big story surrounding the defense is obviously the new additions through the draft. Jalen Ramsey was selected #5 overall and everyone is excited to see him hit the field. He has been described as the best thing since Deion Sanders. He will play the opposite side of Prince Amukamara as the two try to shut down the air attack. The next pick was Myles Jack who was selected #36 overall. A LB projected to go top 10, fell because of injury issues. Those injury issues are still a threat, but if the Jaguars can keep him healthy, these are going to be your 2 defensive captains for years to come!

The last guy we want to mention on defense is Dante Fowler Jr. Fowler was the 3rd overall pick in the 2015 draft, but tore his ACL in training camp and was done for the season before he ever hit the field. He is fully healed now and ready to go. Look for him to join the likes on Jack and Ramsey and be a leader on this team! While the defense as a group is pretty solid, it will take some work and time to mold them into a top 10 defense.

QB Blake Bortles

Bortles is the final piece that needs to fit for this ship to run. Blake was the 3rd overall pick from the 2014 draft out of UCF. He is a quarterback with a lot of potential but still has not reached his highest point yet. BigTex is hoping with the right offense and coaching Blake is not but 1 or 2 years away from being a household name. In his 2 years in the league he has thrown for 7,333 yards with 46 touchdowns and 35 interceptions. BigTex's main concern is definitely the TD/INT ratio and hopes that he can bring that ratio to a better standard. Bortles has some good weapons at WR. The two standouts are the Allens. Robinson and Hurns that is, followed by the #3 and #4 Rashad Greene and Marqise Lee. Eveything starts up front though. The Jaguars OLine is ranked #23 so look for some moves to be made to beef that line up!

What a time to be alive Jaguar fans! This team is headed in the right direction! With BigTex at the helm, they can only go up from here! Stay tuned throughout the season and check out what is happening with your beloved Jaguars!! We will leave you with the 2016 hype video. Watch out NFL, HERE COME THE JAGUARS!!!
