Blew the shot at Watkins and Bortles is overrated made great picks everywhere else, if Blake can prove himself this may be one of best drafts in franchise history

I gave it a C. I still don't think Bortles was top 10 worthy or any Qb in draft but I haven't watched him much. Marqise Lee and Chris Smith are great value picks and I really wouldn't be surprised if Storm Johnson becomes 1 of the 3 best rb in draft. It happen 2 yrs ago in 7th rd when Skins drafted Alfred Morris. I love that unlike previous Harris/Smith regimes Dave Caldwell is actually putting pieces around young Qb. Drafted 2 wideouts in Marqise Lee and Allen Robinson. Selected 2 olineman in Guard Brandon Linder and C Luke Bowanko as we'll as Rb Storm Johnson in addition to Fa signings of Toby Gerhart and Zane Beadles.




Telvin Smith " Super Bowl is Destiny"

Storm Johnson's main issue is fumbling. If he can fix that, he's gonna be a good one. 

I give Caldwell & Co a resounding A!   They fell short of an A+ because of some health concerns I have over higher round picks but overall for the 2nd year I feel good about all of it.    GO JAGS!!!!

I was stunned by this draft. Things could happen but on paper this is the best draft in years. Just about everything we needed except maybe TE.I think it would have been a reach to get a TE after the fourth round anyway.

 

Anyone that does not like this draft must be Gene Smith's brother.

 

UDFA here we come!!!!

I am proud to be a Jaguar Fan. This draft has me feeling real good about the future. We have Competition at all the need positions on our team. The whole roster was addressed either thru free agency or the draft. The only position I feel that's a question mark is who will start is FS. It will play itself out with Joe Young, S. Martin, W. Guy, & J. Evans. This is a wonderful Draft. May go down as the best Jaguar Draft ever. Possible 4 starters maybe even 5.

 A+  because of the players drafted & the process the Front Office displayed to get them.  

 

 

#HurryUpPreseason!!!!

I really liked the top 3 picks, but there were two other picks in particular that intrigued me.  

 

First was Colvin, the CB, who could have been a late first or early second round pick, at least according to Mike Mayock, until be tore his ACL at the Senior Bowl.   But with medical technology as it stands today, he should make a complete recovery, and as soon as he does, we will have drafted a starting quality corner in the 4th round.  

 

The second pick that intrigued me was Telvin Smith.  We have never had any speed at linebacker, and he should be a guy who can play LB in the nickle package and cover the TE.   He's light to be sure, at around 220, but Gus has said he likes speed in his linebackers, and in my 20 years of watching the Jaguars, it seems like we've never been able to cover a TE with a linebacker. 

I definitely wouldn't hit the reset button on my PS3 with this draft..

Wanted to improve the O Line a lil more or get a pass rusher, but all and all a good improvement on offense Ii gave it a B.

How many O-lineman did you want us to get lol?

A+

 

Bortles has a high ceiling, dont mind the pick at all if he develops. I think its better for him to play though. Lee and Robinson complement each other well. Lee is best in between the 20s and Robinson can finish drives off. Other than Storm, who I thought would go in the 5th or 6th, I havent really seen anybody.

 

Just those 4 guys make me really excited about watching the team this year. Haven't felt that way in a few years. 

I gave the Jags an "A+." They got the consensus top quarterback who has great upside. Although Watkins or Mack would have helped more next year, I think the Jags made the correct pick for the long term. Lee and Robinson could have both gone in the first round. Telvin Smith strengthens the linebacker corps, Colvin will be a solid player beginning in 2015 and Fisch has already named Linder as the likely starter at right guard. The undrafted free agent class should add at least 2 or more players who make the final roster and Christian Jones could have been drafted in the 2nd or 3rd round.

 

It's hard to find anything to criticize about this group. I loved the Robinson pick, but would have preferred Marcus Martin at that spot due to need. Still not sure who the opening day center will be. It would have been nice to add a receiving tight end at some point, but there's no way they could have addressed all their needs and Lewis/Harbour should suffice for next year. The Jaguar organization is in great hands with Caldwell and Bradley.

I gave it an A.  The only thing keeping it from being an A+ is that I thought we waited far too long to draft a center.  That being said, it's hard not to be excited by virtually every pick. 

I'm giving it an I for incomplete.  I think it's hard to judge a draft from players who have never played an NFL snap.  If we are talking potential or projection then an A.

Greatest ever. I voted A+
