Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jaguars are betting favorites to pick #1 in the 2021 draft, and by all accounts, they should be.​
What was once a loaded defense is nothing but question marks now outside of Josh Allen. Minshew Mania faded quickly after a fun start, and now Gardner Minshew is just a mustachioed placeholder. You couldn’t name Jacksonville’s starting RB even if you play fantasy football.​
New York Jets
At least Jaguars fans (fan?) knew a reset was coming. Poor Jets fans backed into another rebuilding year when C.J. Mosley opted out and the team traded Jamal Adams. Suddenly the cornerstones of a once-promising defense are gone while, inexplicably, Adam Gase still roams the sidelines.​
The Jets might have the worst pass defense in the league, though they’ll helped by a division that’s opted out of quarterbacks. Adams was probably their best run and pass defender, and maybe their best pass rusher too.​
The offense doesn’t look as bleak but depends greatly on Sam Darnold, who didn’t “make out” (see what I did there?) too well his sophomore season.​
 
Here were the writer's preseason predictions, worst to first.
Missed on a couple (Dolphins, Raiders), and at the beginning of the season he looked like he was way off on his #32, before Jacksonville crumbled apart after a decent start.

Prediction-Team-Actual (after Week 9)
32 - Jaguars ------ 31 (1-7)
31 - NY Jets ------ 32 (0-8)
30 - Washington - 28 (2-6)
29 - Dolphins ---- 12 (5-3)
28 - NY Giants --- 29 (2-7)
27 - Panthers ----- 24 (3-6)
26 - Raiders ------ 10 (5-3)
25 - Texans ------- 26 (2-6)

24 - Bengals ------ 25 (2-5-1)
23 - Lions --------- 22 (3-5)
22 - Falcons ------ 23 (3-6)
21 - Cardinals ---- 13 (5-3)
20 - Broncos ----- 19 (3-5)
19 - Chargers ---- 27 (2-6)
18 - Titans -------- 8 (6-2)
17 - Browns ----- 15 (5-3)

16 - Bears ------- 16 (5-4)
15 - Rams ------- 11 (5-3)
14 - Vikings ----- 21 (3-5)
13 - Packers ---- 6 (6-2)
12 - Bills -------- 3 (7-2)
11 - Patriots ---- 20 (3-5)
10 - Eagles ----- 18 (3-4-1)
9 -- Niners ----- 17 (4-5)

Apparently he had Dallas in the top eight(?!); they are currently in line to have the number three pick in the draft.
