How Travon Walker, Devin Lloyd Have Changed Jaguars Defense

NFL Week 4 - The Jaguars defense isn't an embarrassment anymore. After three consecutive bottom-five finishes in DVOA, including back-to-back finishes at 31st, the Jaguars sit at fourth in defensive DVOA through three weeks. The three teams ahead of them are the usual suspects: Tampa Bay, Buffalo, and San Francisco, a group not even the Jaguars staff would have imagined they would be in at any point this year. While that elite status probably won't hold over the next 14 games, it's clear how much talent has been injected into this team and how much faster they are playing under new defensive coordinator Mike Caldwell.
