Adam Schefter is reporting that the Jacksonville Jaguars are interested in moving up for wide receiver Justin Blackmon. That could make things interesting for the St. Louis Rams, who have Blackmon pretty highly regarded in their evaluations.
UPDATE: Now Clayton is reporting the Rams are interested in trading up for Blackmon.
One trade has enabled Jacksonville to now try to trade up for OSU WR Justin Blackmon. Jags pushing for deal.
