PFF grades: Jaguars 5 highest graded players on defense at bye week

As the Jacksonville Jaguars take a much-needed bye week, a closer look at their defensive players reveals the five highest graded performers according to PFF. While PFF's grading system is a valuable tool for quantifying performance, it should be considered as one component of a player's overall evaluation.

Ventrell Miller leads the pack with a remarkable 92.5 grade. He has been relentless against the quarterback, consistently disruptive and efficient in his tackling. Meanwhile, Josh Hines-Allen has recorded 17 quarterback pressures and two sacks this season, bolstering his high-quality grade of 77.2. DaVon Hamilton, a defensive tackle, has shown promise on the pass rush with seven pressures, while also excelling in the run game by eating up space and disrupting running lanes.

On the cornerback side, Travis Hunter has allowed a relatively high completion rate of 61% on 26 targets, with an average of 14.6 yards per catch. However, his two red zone interceptions and a passer rating of 58.8 when targeted by quarterbacks demonstrate his value to the defense. Lastly, LB Foye Oluokun has contributed significantly with two interceptions and six QB pressures as a blitzer, complementing Miller's strong performance. Together, Miller and Oluokun have formed a formidable duo on the Jaguars' defensive line.
