JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Cornerback Jalen Ramsey was the cant-miss draft pick. Defensive tackle Malik Jackson was the $90 million free agent. Pass-rusher Dante Fowler Jr. was the key piece returning from injury.Rookie Yannick Ngakoue is having as big an impact as any of them for the Jacksonville Jaguars this season.A third-round pick from Maryland, Ngakoue has a team-leading three sacks, three forced fumbles and an interception that set up a touchdown. And the Jaguars (1-3), who have a bye this week, believe hes just getting started.Every year in this league you have guys stepping up and things like that, so its no surprise, Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith said.You cant look at a piece of paper or a draft pick or what his check is and say, `This guy is going to be this. Thats what I love about this league: Youve got to go out and re-prove yourself every Sunday, every Monday, every Thursday.Every time you step on that field, you have to say, `This is who I am. And right now, hes doing a great job of it.Ngakoue is one of eight NFL players to notch at least one sack in each of the past three weeks. He also has a forced fumble in three straight games, and now leads all rookies in both categories. His three sacks tied him with Kevin Hardy (1996) for the most by a rookie through four games in franchise history.Its not surprising to us because he works like that in practice, coach Gus Bradley said. The cool thing is that he is carrying it over, and if there is a time where he gets stuck or blocked, it doesnt frustrate him to the next play. He recovers quickly and he has been playing at a high level.Ngakoue (pronounced In-GACK-way) played at a high level as a junior at Maryland. He set a school record with 13+ sacks and ranked second in the nation in sacks per game.The Jaguars viewed Ngakoue as a perfect fit at the teams pass-rushing Leo position behind Fowler, the third overall pick in the 2015 draft who missed his rookie season because of a knee injury.Its an important spot in Bradleys 4-3 scheme and one the Jaguars failed to fill the previous three years with Jason Babin, Jeremy Mincey, Chris Clemons, Andre Branch, Ryan Davis and Chris Smith.Jacksonville parted ways with Clemons and Branch after last season, clearing the way for Fowler to step right into a starting role. But they needed a backup.First-year defensive coordinator Todd Wash felt Ngakoue could be the guy, maybe even more.It was a situation where I was standing on the table earlier in the draft for him, Wash said. I loved him coming out. I know his temperament, his ability and I think youre starting to see more. ... We really like what weve seen in the draft and what were getting right now out of him.The revamped Jaguars rank sixth in the NFL in total defense, averaging 304.5 yards a game, and insist the unit is only going to get better the longer the new faces continue to jell.Ramsey has been better than anyone expected, starting from Day 1 and basically shutting down top receivers every week.Jackson has provided consistent pressure up the middle, keeping quarterbacks in the pocket and providing the catalyst for many of the teams 12 sacks. Fowler has been solid, too, with two sacks and several big plays.Ngakoue has been just as good, especially considering he hasnt been on the field nearly as much.Got to play with a chip, Ngakoue said. Always underestimated and always out to prove something each and every day. Just because I made it to this level, its not the end. Its just the beginning. Thats my mentality each and every day.Its a good approach to have, especially as a rookie whos had some early success.The Jaguars love it, almost as much as they do his past three performances.His first step is really good, Wash said. He can cover some ground vertically. He has the ability to lean and bend. He not only is a speed guy, but has enough man in him to be a power rusher also. You cant be a one-trick pony when youre rushing the passer, so were very excited about him.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Aaron Ramsey Jersey .

Creighton is set for its first true road game Wednesday, but the Bluejays dont have to stray far from home for their initial challenge in a hostile environment.The 10th-ranked Bluejays will travel just under 60 miles west on Interstate 80 to play in-state rival Nebraska at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln.It is the first time in program history that Creighton is a Top 10 team in either poll in consecutive weeks. The Bluejays (8-0) remained No. 10 in the Associated Press poll while moving from No. 12 to No. 10 in the USA Today coaches poll Monday.The annual showdown for bragging rights has been lopsided in Creightons favor in recent seasons, and Bluejays coach Greg McDermott has never lost a game to a Tim Miles-coached team.Bluejays guard Khyri Thomas, a sophomore from Omaha, said the Creighton coaches are more into the rivalry aspect than he is.Now that Im at Creighton, its starting to become a big deal, Thomas said. Last year I got a little taste of it, but this year were going there. The coaches are always amped up about it, so I guess I have to get amped up as well.Its just another game. Im ready to play, get the win and on to the next game.While the Bluejays played three games away from CenturyLink Center, all of those were at a neutral site in the Virgin Islands. McDermott expects to know much more about the Jays by the time the game ends late Wednesday night.I wish we would have had one other true road game before to get out feet wet, but were going to go into the fire right away, McDermott said. Im going to learn a lot about our team on Wednesday, whether we can go into an environment like that, where its loud and there are plenty of distractions because of the energy and the crowd. We have to be able to focus our way through it.Nebraska (5-3) took an 11-point loss to No. 2 UCLA at Paauley Pavilion and a two-point setback to Clemson in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.dddddddddddd McDermott said Miles has the Huskers on the right track.Hes got them playing well, McDermott said. Theyve got a couple of near-misses against some really good teams.Two Huskers specifically mentioned by McDermott as having good starts to the season were Glynn Watson Jr. and Tai Webster. Those pair are averaging a combined 30.7 points per game, with Webster setting the pace at 16.9.How the two teams get things done on offense and defense are vastly different. Creighton is the only team in the country that is shooting better than 50 percent from the field in all its games, and the Bluejays average 90.2 points per game.The Huskers are making shots at a clip of 42.5 percent through their first eight games while averaging 69.1 points per outing. Nebraska is giving up 62.5 points per game, while Creighton surrenders 73.9 each time out.McDermott said the Huskers arent a team the Bluejays can take lightly. He noted that none of Creightons current starters have played in the rivalry game in Lincoln.Theyre playing with a lot more confidence, McDermott said. Nebraskas a very capable basketball team, and were going to have to have our A game if we going to go in there and expect to win.The Wednesday contest begins a rough week for Nebraska, which plays at No. 3 Kansas on Saturday.Its a big week for us to come prepared and play our game and execute what Coach Miles wants us to do, Watson told huskers.com. Its big. Its a chance for us to show our game and show that we can play with the best teams, also. Its big, but weve got to prepare and execute whatever weve got to do to get the W. ' ' '
