2. Jacksonville Jaguars (via SF)

2. player. 52. The Jacksonville Jaguars have a lot of problems to sort out, which is hard to believe considering the talent upgrades they’ve made to the roster over the past couple years. The good news is their defense seemed to make some progress this year though it still struggled to keep teams out of the end zone. If they’re going to take another step forward, then what better place to focus that the defensive line? <p>Malik Jackson and Yannick Ngakoue seemed to give it some life in 2016, but they’re still lacking a definitive presence who opponents know they have to game plan for. One guy perfect for that job who is shooting up boards is Solomon Thomas. This young defensive end from Stanford makes life miserable for blockers on every single snaps. He goes hard and fast with a relentless pursuit of the football. His Von Miller-like performance in the Sun Bowl proved that.</p>. DE. Stanford. Solomon Thomas
