How Jags-Ravens trade went down
Jaguars vice president of player personnel James Harris said the Jags had been in contact all week with several teams about making a deal to move up in the draft.
The Jags gave Baltimore their first-round pick, two third rounders and a fourth to move up to No. 8 to acquire Derrick Harvey. Part of the rationale behind the move is the surplus of talent already on the roster. Because of the talent , it's not a given anymore that a third or fourth rounder can make the Jags' final 53-man roster.
"With our roster, we're not sure they [third-round picks] could make the team," Harris said.
Stay tuned and don't rule out the possibility of the Jags' acquiring another pick by dangling receiver Matt Jones.

I think it's time. Matt Jones has been a good ball player. He's come up with some unbelievable catches- but he's too inconsistent. He's had his chances. They should look to Tennessee to possibly package a deal and get a better draft position in order to get a DT. The Titans could use a receiver and we could use a higher pick.
