With the draft and OTAs closing in, it’s a great time to be a fan of the NFL. It won’t be long until post-draft predictions begin to surface and it appears the good people over at Football Outsiders are already on top of things.

In their early 2017 predictions for the AFC South, they shake up things in a major way with the Jacksonville Jaguars finishing second in a tiebreaker (of 8-8 records) with the Tennessee Titans.

AFC South Tennessee Titans: 8-8 (8.1 mean wins; SOS: 29) Jacksonville Jaguars: 8-8 (7.5 mean wins; SOS: 30) Indianapolis Colts: 7-9 (6.6 mean wins; SOS: 28) Houston Texans: 6-10 (6.1 mean wins; SOS: 10) This will continue to be the worst division in the NFL, but at least Tennessee and Jacksonville seem like teams on the rise. The Titans ranked 15th in our DVOA ratings last season, best in the AFC South, and they’ve made some strong free-agent additions on defense. So has Jacksonville, and the Jaguars project to have a top-10 defense, but there’s no reason to expect the offense to get any better. Houston might have won the division last season, but the Texans ranked a dismal 29th in our DVOA ratings. That first-place finish doesn’t do the Texans any schedule favors, because there’s a big difference between playing the Patriots and playing the other AFC East teams. The quarterback position is a colossal question mark, which is enough to outweigh a defensive projection that gives the Texans a boost with the return of J.J. Watt. Meanwhile, the Colts continue to experiment with just how much a bad defense can fritter away the prime years of a good quarterback.

Though they aren’t listed atop the division, I don’t think Jaguars fans would be upset with the results above as Jacksonville hasn’t been .500 since 2010. Needless to say, it would mark improvement and give the fan base a glimmer of hope heading into 2018.

As the Outsiders point out, the offense will need to improve — and as of now, the front office hasn’t really made any significant additions despite being open about getting better around the quarterback. That said, the draft will be key as they could use additions at running back, tight end and the offensive line. Of course, the season will also hinge on the improvement of Blake Bortles, who will be coming up on a crucial year (especially if his fifth-year option isn’t picked up).

As for the Titans, it’s interesting to see them listed atop the division as they have received a lot of offseason hype as one of the NFL’s ascending teams. According to Pro Football Focus, they have the top graded offensive in their favor, which should be great for Marcus Mariota, DeMarco Murray and company. One concern with them heading forward should be divisional play since they finished 2-4 in the AFC South in 2016.

Even more shocking than the Titans being listed as the division winner (with Jacksonville behind them) was the fact that the Texans, last season’s divisional champions, were listed dead last. It appears some won’t take their quarterback situation lightly as they recently traded Brock Osweiler to the Cleveland Browns. It’s now expected that they could look to the draft for a signal-caller, which could be good for the Jaguars when looking at the draft’s crop.

Lastly, the Colts came in third, which wouldn’t surprise many if it actually happened. After years of terrible drafting, the Colts are bound to feel the effects soon, though they got rid of a major problem in general manager Ryan Grigson. Coach Chuck Pagano could be next to go if the team doesn’t return to the top as they were in the early stages of his tenure.
