At just 24 years old, Jacksonville Jaguars safety Andre Cisco is an ascending player who could be on the verge of a true breakout in a contract year in 2024. The Jaguars already have big contract extensions for quarterback Trevor Lawrence and linebacker Josh Allen out of the way, so Cisco could be next up. After a tough offseason for the safety market, there is added intrigue with how teams will choose to pay their safeties, which also adds intrigue to Cisco's situation in Jacksonville. The former third-round pick in the 2021 draft out of Syracuse finished his third season in the NFL with 62 tackles (42 solo), half a sack, a career-high four interceptions, five pass breakups and a forced fumble in 15 starts last year. Cisco isn't quite on the fantasy radar yet in IDP leagues, but if he continues ascending, that could change in 2024.
The Jacksonville Jaguars selected Syracuse safety Andre Cisco with the first pick of the third round (65th overall) of the 2021 NFL draft on Friday night. Cisco is the fifth selection for Jacksonville already in this draft, and he's the second defensive back taken. The Jaguars secondary could surely use the help, as they were one of the worst secondaries in football in 2020. Cisco is a smooth prospect with soft hands, plenty or range and speed in the middle of the field. He's also proven to be a good tackler and has incredible ball skills. Cisco needs some work, but he can also be a great run defender when he's up in the box. A torn ACL in college made him fall into the third round.
