Jacksonville Jaguars Fan Forums

Quote:I'm ok with the pick. Not my most favorite, mainly because I fear any pass rushers out of Florida after the Derrick harvey disaster. But we'll see.

Kearse,Carter and Dunlap pretty good though.

If Harvey never happened people would be creaming over this pick.

Agree - and this draft is deep at WR/RB. 

Quote:Let's see. The majority of experts were saying it would be Williams, Cooper, or Fowler. Each one had tremendous upside. The Jags picked one of the 3 and the Jag fans hate it. Classic.


NFL network was saying that some teams had concerns about Williams shoulder issue, and that's why he slid as far as he did.


The Jags have been abundantly clear they're happy with the young group of receivers. Cooler would have been a nice pick up for the team, but they obviously felt it wasn't an area of need.


Fowler is the best edge rusher in the draft coming to a team that had a good line but a lackluster pass rush. The team needs a guy who will affect the qb. Fowler should do that pretty well on this line.


It's a solid pick. He'll have an immediate impact.

Yup

Dave said they dont expect to pick at the top of the draft next year, you only get so many shots at the top pass rusher in the draft 

This reminds me of last year where there were only 2 players worth taking according to the majority.


Last year: Clowney & Watkins

This year: Williams & Cooper


And we picked someone different and then people whine because it's not one of the 2 that they've been hearing and reading about as being the greatest thing since sliced bread.

<p class="" style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Jaguars loved Vic Beasley and his speed off the edge, but felt like he took plays off. Not Fowler. Played hard every game, every down

Agreed. He spoiled it, but hopefully Fowler puts that experience to rest once and for all.

Think dave used some foresight saying the DE crop next year looks.lacking with a deep WR//RB class I think that will be the pick at 36.

<p class="" style="color:rgb(41,47,51);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Jaguars plan to get Fowler down to 250-255 pounds and keep him there. Believe he could get even faster off edge

Love it!

My guess is that they'll get their RB before the night is over.

Quote:It's the end of the world

lol ikr?

Dave Caldwell knows what he's doing.

I think fowler makes us a better team

Quote:My guess is that they'll get their RB before the night is over.

I hope so

Intersting that Beasley and Fowler jr will play in the same system, so we will see who is the best 

Quote:The Jags have the worst D in the NFL?

ummmm..they were 31st..sorry the Jets were

Quote:My guess is that they'll get their RB before the night is over.

Yes trade up for Gurley would be amazing

We still need a safety.

Quote:Look out for us trading back in the first for Perriman...would make sense. Like the tenacity of Fowler

 

While I'd like an elite WR, I still think that Phillip Dorsett or maybe even Perriman may be there at the beginning of Round 2.

 

WR in round 2 ---  Dorsett or Perriman

RB in round 3 --- Duke Johnson or T. Coleman or Ajayi

Love this pick. Love it. Love it. Can't stop typing love it.
