WR Dede Westbrook
Dede Westbrook was his most productive in 2018 under Nate Hackett when he caught a career-high of 717 yards and five touchdowns. All but seven of those receptions were from the slot (59 in total) while all of his scores were from there, too. In 2019, he saw a good bit of time there again, but John DeFilippo’s scheme limited his playmaking ability and he saw a decline in impact plays, only registering 66 catches for 660 yards and three touchdowns.
That said, the addition of Shenault in the draft provides the Jags with another receiving threat who won’t only help Chark in a big way, but help Westbrook, too. Additionally, Gruden likes to utilize slot threats in his scheme as his former slot receiver, Jamison Crowder, caught 221 passes for 2,628 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns throughout four seasons with the Washington Redskins. Hopefully, this is something that translates to Jacksonville as most would say Westbrook is a better receiver than Crowder.
