The Facts:
Top draft pick Matt Jones will be on the sidelines today when the Jaguars start the next phase of their offseason workout program with a three-day passing camp. Coach Jack Del Rio said Jones, who strained a hamstring on the first day of the mandatory minicamp April 29, aggravated the injury last week and the Jaguars don't want to rush him back in May. Fred Taylor, who underwent arthroscopic knee surgery in January, will also remain sidelined.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although it's safe to assume Del Rio would prefer all incoming rookies -- especially those making position changes, get in as much work as possible, the cautious approach is understandable. ... As for Taylor, Del Rio said the veteran running back is on schedule to start running in June and be ready for the opening of training camp.
