Jaguars Evaluate Front Positions Ahead of 2025 NFL Combine

The Los Angeles Chargers are exploring potential wide receiver acquisitions after struggling offensively against playoff defenses last season, with Deebo Samuel emerging as a prime target. The San Francisco 49ers have given Samuel's agent permission to seek trade opportunities, and his ability to generate significant yards after catch could enhance the Chargers' offense alongside quarterback Justin Herbert. Meanwhile, the Jacksonville Jaguars are focusing on their draft strategy ahead of the NFL Scouting Combine, with general manager James Gladstone emphasizing the need to strengthen both the offensive and defensive lines, which have underperformed. The Jaguars also need to consider their wide receiver options, with Tetairoa McMillan's stock reportedly slipping in draft projections, making it less likely he will be selected at the team's fifth overall pick. Analysts suggest that while McMillan has shown potential, his draft position may be more in the middle of the first round rather than a top-10 selection. As the Jaguars approach the combine, they are likely to prioritize positions that can bolster their overall team performance and support quarterback Trevor Lawrence.
