“That Is Expectations” – HC Doug Pedersen Thrilled As Jaguars Complete Trade For Star O-Lineman Ezra Cleveland On Deadline Day

The NFL trade deadline is like a sword hanging above everyone’s heads. As the clock ticks, the tip of the sword inches even closer. Every team is scrambling to play the perfect gamble. The one that doesn’t end up becoming a liability.

And as everyone runs like chickens let loose after a long day in the cage, the Jacksonville Jaguars seemed to have caught the prey after all.

Jacksonville Jaguars’ hunt for star O-lineman comes to a glorious end

The Jacksonville Jaguars were on the prowl to make a strong O-line and it looks like their hunt for the best offensive lineman might have come to an end. According to reports, the Jaguars have acquired Ezra Cleveland all the way from Minnesota. Considering the Vikings’ chances of making it to the playoffs look slim after losing star QB Kirk Cousins, this seems like a smart decision from both ends.
