Contract details for Jacksonville Jaguars' third-round pick DB Caleb Ransaw
Contract details for Jacksonville Jaguars' third-round pick DB Caleb Ransaw Here is a look at the contract details for Jacksonville Jaguars' third-round draft pick DB Caleb Ransaw. Prior to rookie minicamp, the Jacksonville Jaguars agreed to contract terms with third-round draft pick, Tulane defensive back Caleb Ransaw. Over the Cap now has those contract details. When it comes to rookie deals, the rookie wage scale sets the parameters, based on where the player was drafted, that puts in place a ceiling and a floor for how much each draft pick can earn over their standard four-year contract. For a more detailed look at the rookie wage scale, click here. For Ransaw, who was the 88th overall pick, his total contract value over the four-year deal is $6.281 million and includes $1.208 million guaranteed as a signing bonus. From a cap perspective, that signing bonus amount will be prorated over the four years of the contract, in the form of a $302,014 cap hit each year. In Year 1, Ransaw will earn a base salary of $840,000. In Year 2, it increases to $1.075 million, followed by $1.361 million in Year 3, and $1.646 million in Year 4. Caleb Ransaw's salary cap hits each year with Jacksonville Jaguars 2025: $1.142 million $1.142 million 2026: $1.427 million $1.427 million 2027: $1.713 million $1.713 million 2028: $1.998 million Mike Silver of The Athletic would call Ransaw one of GM James Gladstone's draft crushes. Ransaw brings impressive speed to the Jaguars' defensive backfield, running a 4.33-second 40, along with versatility as well, having played multiple positions at Tulane. Within the Jaguars' defense, Ransaw could compete for the starting strong safety role right away, and that combination of speed and versatility provides defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile with added flexibility. "One of the things that really jumps out more than anything is the versatility," Gladstone said of Ransaw via Jaguars on SI. "As we look at that defensive back room, obviously the capacity to play corner, play safety, he showcased the post work at the All-Star Circuit that really jumped out. "Obviously, if you were to ever look at his stat page, what stands out is his tackle ratio. The root word of the position safety is safe, and he's somebody that can make sure that when there is someone who gets loose, he can get them down."

Breaking down Jacksonville Jaguars second-round pick: DB Caleb Ransaw
Breaking down Jacksonville Jaguars second-round pick: DB Caleb Ransaw In the third round of the 2025 NFL draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars selected Tulane defensive back Caleb Ransaw. Let's break down the selection. In the third round of the 2025 NFL draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars selected Tulane defensive back Caleb Ransaw. Let's break down the pick, and if you missed our other recaps, you can find them below. Caleb Ransaw's profile Height: 5-113 Weight: 197 Age: 22 College profile Breaking down the Jacksonville Jaguars' pick Ransaw played at Troy for three seasons before transferring to Tulane in 2024. He will bring speed and versatility to the Jaguars' defense. He ran a 4.33-second 40-yard dash at the NFL combine and has experience lining up at multiple positions. In this most recent season, Ransaw mostly lined up in the nickel, but he does have some boundary experience from his time at Troy and played in the box as well at both schools. At both stops, Ransaw has proven to be a reliable tackler, which has made him a stout run defender, and in coverage, he was quite stingy last season, allowing a completion rate of just 44% at 14.8 yards per catch with one pass breakup, per PFF. Given Ransaw's experience playing near the line of scrimmage, he could potentially compete right away for playing time at strong safety in the Jaguars' defense, pairing with free agent Eric Murray, Jacksonville's free safety. Caleb Ransaw's scouting report Lance Zierlein: "Ransaw already plays with an NFL field demeanor, utilizing his good size and strength. He is terrific as a big nickel supporting the run but he might not have the cover talent to hold up in man coverage against NFL slot receivers. He's capable in zone and might be rugged enough to line up over big slots and pass-catching tight ends. If he can't hold up as a slot, a move to safety could be a comfortable transition. Ransaw has the tools to play as a pro, but scheme fit could decide his ceiling and productivity." They said it James Gladstone: "One of the things that really jumps out more than anything is the versatility," Gladstone said via Jaguars on SI. "As we look at that defensive back room, obviously the capacity to play corner, play safety, he showcased the post work at the All-Star Circuit that really jumped out. Obviously, if you were to ever look at his stat page, what stands out is his tackle ratio. The root word of the position safety is safe, and he's somebody that can make sure that when there is someone who gets loose, he can get them down." Caleb Ransaw's athletic profile Highlights
