The Jacksonville Jaguars went into free agency in 2016 with a clear list of targets and more than enough salary cap space to accommodate all of them. Their first target was the top ranked player available and they got him – former Denver Broncos defensive tackle Malik Jackson.
After a breakout season, Jackson capped off his terrific 2015 campaign with a dominant performance in the Super Bowl. He was arguably the best player on the field and nobody doubted he would command a high price in free agency.
Despite all the apparent praise, Jackson missed out on the ultimately meaningless NFL Top 100 list this summer.
