Jaguars sign A.J. Cann, getting rookie class under contract (The Associated Press)

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- The Jacksonville Jaguars have their entire rookie class under contract.

Third-round draft pick A.J. Cann, a 313-pound guard from South Carolina, signed his four-year deal Wednesday. Cann was the team's lone rookie unsigned heading into a three-day, mandatory minicamp that began Tuesday.

Under the NFL's rookie slotting system, Cann's deal was projected to be worth a little more than $3 million and include a signing bonus worth around $800,000.

The Jaguars drafted Cann in hopes of upgrading an offensive line that allowed a franchise-record 71 sacks last season.
