The Jacksonville Jaguars finished 5-11 in 2015, including five losses in their final six games, but there are signs of promise going forward. Quarterback Blake Bortles made significant progress in his second season, and wide receivers Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns give him a pair of capable young targets.
With the NFL Combine coming this week, here are five prospects the Jaguars should target in this year’s draft.

5. Michigan C/OG Graham Glasgow

5. Michigan C/OG Graham Glasgow
Jacksonville needs to add some offensive line competition after allowing 51 sacks last season, and an interior upgrade could be sought in the draft. Glasgow played guard and center at Michigan, and he could push for a starting job immediately.
4. Ohio State FS Tyvis Powell

4. Ohio State FS Tyvis Powell
Powell followed the Ohio State caravan to the NFL Draft, and he was a three-year starter for the Buckeyes. With high marks for his size, speed and versatility, the Jaguars could use a safety of Powell's ilk in their secondary.
3. LSU OT Jerald Hawkins

3. LSU OT Jerald Hawkins
Now that Bortles has weapons available to him, upgrading his pass protection has to be a priority. Luke Joeckel is in place at left tackle, but Hawkins played both tackle spots at LSU and looks like a solid fit.
2. Michigan State DE Shilique Calhoun

2. Michigan State DE Shilique Calhoun
The Jaguars had no one with more than 5.5 sacks in 2015, so adding some pass rush is definitely in the cards. Calhoun missed the Senior Bowl with an injury, and he's a tweener (252 pounds), so he may fall right to Jacksonville as a draft steal.
1. Florida CB Vernon Hargeaves

1. Florida CB Vernon Hargeaves
Jacksonville intercepted just nine passes last season, with the league's 29th-ranked pass defense, so secondary help is needed. Hargreaves is widely considered the top corner in this year's class, and at No. 5 overall he should be available.
