Best: C Brandon Linder

Jaguars center Brandon Linder has quietly become one of the best centers in the entire NFL.

Drafted with the No. 93 overall pick in 2014, Linder has turned into a huge asset on a Jaguars’ offensive line that has been consistently under fire. After giving up five sacks in his rookie year, Linder would only allow five sacks in the span of five seasons.

Linder also recorded a Pro Football Focus grade of 75.7 in 2019, which was good for No. 5 in the NFL and also the highest grade on the Jaguars’ offensive line. His lowest grade since he has been drafted was 69.9 in 2015 which still graded him as a viable starter. Linder’s biggest weakness was penalties, as he exited 2019 with 10 infractions which ranked as the second-worst worst on the Jags’ offensive line.

The greatest caveat in all of this is the fact that Linder will have a cap hit of only $8 million, which ranks as No. 10 at his position meaning that the Jaguars have incredible financial value in the interior.

Great linemen are extremely hard to find especially at a great value, but it would appear that the Jaguars may have a guy that could be right up there with the production of franchise greats in Brad Meester and Vince Manuwai and Tony Boselli.
