The Jacksonville Jaguars have an exceedingly high price tag for teams interested in pulling off a trade for cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

According to Albert Breer of The MMQB, Jacksonville is asking for two first-round picks.

Per rival clubs, the asking price for Jaguars CB Jalen Ramsey is two first-round picks.

That's a starting point. And added to what it'd cost to extend Ramsey, it's a lot. But it's not totally crazy, given what Seattle got for Frank Clark and Miami got for Laremy Tunsil.

Ramsey requested a trade through his agent following Jacksonville’s Week 2 loss to the Houston Texans. During the game, he got into it with head coach Doug Marrone on the sideline, signalling a real issue between himself and the organization.

As the Jaguars look for a trade partner, Ramsey has made it clear he will continue to play and is dedicated to getting himself ready for the team’s Week 3 Thursday night matchup against the Tennessee Titans.

Jalen Ramsey tells reporters: "Right now I'm still a part of the Jacksonville Jaguars." Said he's getting ready for Thursday night's game against the Titans and, "that's where my focus is."

Any team that does make a trade for Ramsey will obviously have to have the cap space to sign him to a huge long-term extension. Right now, Ramsey — one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL — is playing out the fourth year of his rookie deal, with his fifth-year option still to come.
