Jacksonville Jaguars Tickets

Was the 12-4 record a mirage created by the combination of a soft schedule and the right breaks, or are the Jaguars capable of duplicating their playoff season with another year of seasoning? The truth might be somewhere in between, but the Jaguars need more balance to get back to the postseason.

2006 Team Draft Notes: Jacksonville addressed three need positions on Day 1 of the 2006 NFL Draft. First, the Jaguars grabbed former UCLA tight end Marcedes Lewis with the No. 28 pick. He will be groomed to replace veteran Kyle Brady, who has been assured he will return for the '06 season. Then the Jaguars took diminutive former UCLA running back Maurice Jones-Drew in Round 2. (Fred Taylor turned 30 earlier this year.) Then coach Jack Del Rio finally got a linebacker -- Clint Ingram from Oklahoma.

The Jaguars finished 12-4 the second-best record in team history and made the playoffs for the first time since 1999.

He played well as a rookie. The most significant improvement for these guys is in their second year. They get a feel for their opponents and the league. They develop some familiarity with the opponent. They learn a guy's techniques and nuances, and they really develop at that point. He was a first-round talent who fell to the second round (in 2005). He has been terrific. He started beginning in Week 5, and they went 10-2 with him in the lineup. Sacks went way down
