The Jacksonville Jaguars already have some nice young talent on defense with guys like Jalen Ramsey and Dante Fowler. However, with the way this season is going, the Jaguars could definitely afford to add some more talent on that side of the ball.

Fowler and Malik Jackson could definitely use some help on the defensive line. Fortunately for them, there’s an incredible defensive lineman coming out of Alabama in Jonathan Allen.

Allen is everything you want in a disruptive defensive lineman. He stays low, uses his violent hands to disengage and does a great job of creating pressure. He’s dominant against the pass and the run, allowing him to make plays on a regular basis.

At 6’3” and 294 pounds, Allen has the versatility to play inside or out, which could make him a key piece for the Jaguars to help them create some disruption at the line of scrimmage.
