Jaguars O-line looks to be 'in better shape' than last year

Jun 06, 2014

The Jaguars like the progress of the offensive line. Left tackle Luke Joeckel is showing progress, and the Jaguars not only like how third-year center Mike Brewster is performing this offseason, they love what left guard Zane Beadles has brought. Bradley also has talked about the level of trust the team has in swing tackle Cameron Bradfield and in right tackle Austin Pasztor. This group still has to sort out depth and find a starter at right guard, but looks in better shape than a year ago.

Fantasy Impact:

This is good news for Toby Gerhart, who may surprise with a heavy workload as a 4th/5th round pick in fantasy drafts. He has touched the ball 15+ times in seven career games and has averaged low-end RB1 numbers (12.6 FP) with that type of workload. The former Heisman candidate will likely start for the Jaguars, though Jordan Todman could offer up some competition. Gerhart has fantasy RB2 potential as a lead back.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
