After finishing the year 5-11, the Jacksonville Jaguars will head into the offseason armed with another Top-5 draft pick.

With the regular season now over, the Jaguars hold the No. 5 overall pick in April's draft, marking the fifth straight season the team has picked in the Top 5.

In 2012, Jacksonville picked now-suspended wide receiver Justin Blackmon fifth overall. In 2013, the team took left tackle Luke Joeckel at No. 2, while a year later, quarterback Blake Bortles was picked third overall. In 2015, Jacksonville took linebacker Dante Fowler, Jr. with the third pick in the draft.

Gus Bradley's team heads into the offseason with a number of needs on defense, including cornerback, safety and defensive end.
