Trading Yannick Ngakoue

Yannick Ngakoue is clearly upset at the Jags. He has to wanted to get out of there since before the draft. We all know that you don't play and work the hardest when you're not interested. The Jags should trade him before his value keeps going down. Or, they could trade him for at the trade deadline, but that would be risky because they would be betting that he plays well. So, here's some trade packages that the Jags could ship him out for. 

1. Seattle gives: Will Dissly and 2nd round pick

    Jacksonville gives: Yannik Ngakoue

This trade makes a lot of sense for both teams. Seattle has Greg Olsen, and they can draft a new TE in the draft next year. But, they need help badly on the edge. They do have Darrell Taylor, but he is unproven. They also can't ride Bruce Irvin forever. Him and Benson Mayowa are lested as the starters. Not very impressive. 

2. Arizona gives: Chirstian Kirk and 3rd round pick

    Jacksonville gives: Yannik Ngakoue 

The Cardinals do run a 3-4 defense so Ngakoue might not be the best fit. But, the Arizona Cardinals need to get help for Chandler Jones NOW. They have almost a Super Bowl team. Just tweak the O-Line and get the corners a little better and there. This would be a start. Also, Jacksonville would be pretty tough to stop with 3 really good receivers and Minshew. They would also get a 3rd round pick which would be pretty nice.

3. Cleveland gives: Oliver Vernon and 3rd and 7th round pick 

    Jacksonville gives: Yannick Ngakoue and 5th round pick

The Browns have all the pieces needed to succeed. I forgot who said it, but they like they said, the Browns are too talented to lose. All they need is a reliable pass-rusher alongside Myles Garrett. They would have to give Yannick Ngakoue a new contract, and give Vernon his 15 mil due for this season. Jacksonville is in rebuilding mode on defense anyway and they get a premium pass-rusher when he stays healthy. 

This was kind of hard, but here is a player only trade for you

 

4. Tampa gives: Jason Pierre-Paul and Kevin Minter

    Jacksonville gives: Yannick Ngakoue

This is probably not the strongest trade, but it is a pretty good one even though the Bucs run a 3-4 defense. They could move use Shaquil Barrett to LB and Ngakoue is a DE. Also, it gives the Jags a backup LB because they depth behind Myles Jack is not the greatest. Tampa gains another piece to go the promise land. The Jags get a pretty good rusher themselves. He is not bad at all (8.5 sacks last year). 

A huge thanks to ESPN for the stats and depth charts
