Unlike the Colts, the Jaguars should have their pick of edge rushers. At No. 3, their challenge will be deciding which player fits their scheme best. Florida’s Dante Fowler Jr. could very well be that player. Fowler played the Buck position in Will Muschamp’s defense; he also played under Dan Quinn as a freshman. Quinn left Florida to replace Jaguars coach Gus Bradley as the Seahawks’ defensive coordinator. The Buck at Florida is similar to the Leo position the Jaguars use (a weakside defensive end who moves around the formation, depending on whether the team wants to show an even- or odd-front look and attempts to wreak havoc in the backfield). Clemson’s Vic Beasley looks athletic enough to do all these things, but he played 25 pounds lighter than Fowler in college. Fowler has the size the Jags want, and he has already shown he can do the job in a similar scheme.
