Carlos Sanchez of Black & Teal argues the Jacksonville Jaguars should target Arizona Cardinals pass rusher Josh Sweat ahead of the NFL trade deadline. With the Jaguars off to a 4-1 start, Sanchez suggests adding Sweat would provide vital depth behind starters Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker for a playoff push.
