Jaguars make blockbuster defensive moves with Jessie Bates and Jordan Davis, NFL insider

After making several major trades just ahead of Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline, the Jacksonville Jaguars bolstered their defense and reinforced their ambitions to win the Super Bowl.

The award-winning NFL reporter, analyst and insider, Jason La Canfora, talked about the Jags’ defensive moves and highlighted the significance of the franchise’s decision.

"Adding safety Jessie Bates from the Atlanta Falcons immediately makes them better against the deep ball, which is one area that a very good defense was suffering," the insider and analyst explained in an exclusive interview with Casino Guru News.

The league expert reminded that the Jaguars lost nose tackle, DaVon Hamilton.

"And they lost an All-Pro-caliber, a nose tackle, a real run stuffer for the season," the insider said.

However, La Canfora stressed that the Jags didn’t let Hamilton’s injury weaken their defensive front and made a blockbuster trade for the Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle, Jordan Davis.

"So, what do they do? They go out and make a monster trade, almost like a quarterback-level compensation trade to get Jordan Davis an interior dominant present from the Philadelphia Eagles," the analyst and insider continued.

La Canfora argued Jacksonville planned to make two or three defensive additions, and they executed this strategy perfectly.

"They were going to make 2 to 3 moves for their defense, and they did, and I believe it'll pay off in a big way," he explained in conclusion.

Besides Bates and Davis, the Jags also acquired the defensive tackle, Davon Godchaux, from the New Orleans Saints.
