The Jacksonville Jaguars bolstered their future draft prospects by trading cornerback Jalen Ramsey to the Los Angeles Rams on Tuesday, but executive vice president of football operations Tom Coughlin believes they can still win the AFC South this year.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network passed along a statement from Coughlin on Wednesday:
"Given the situation with Jalen, we made this decision based on what we thought is in the best interest of the Jacksonville Jaguars, for this season and well into the future. We feel the trade that we struck with the Rams gives us great value for the next two drafts, and we remain very confident that our team today will compete this season for a division title.
