The Jacksonville Jaguars finally have an intimidating offense. Blake Bortles, Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns and Julius Thomas have given them a serious passing game while Chris Ivory and T.J. Yeldon are a solid 1-2 combo in the backfield.

Now, the Jaguars need to continue to build out their defense. Jalen Ramsey and Dante Fowler Jr. are two guys that Jaguars fans are excited about, but now the team could use someone to man the middle of the defense.

Ohio State’s Raekwon McMillan could be just what the Jaguars are looking for. He’s an intelligent inside linebacker that does a great job reading blocking schemes to make plays at the line of scrimmage. He’s also not afraid to make contact with the ball carrier, which is a must if he wants to start at the next level.

Although McMillan still needs to work on pass coverage, he’s a prospect with huge upside that could be a great player to learn behind current Jaguars inside linebacker Paul Posluszny.
