This may be the last year for Dareus, Jackson,and/or Campbell.  If a player develops to replace them, that could create more cap space.  Jalen and Yannick are going to be expensive

Jackson may be our most overrated defensive starter. He needs to play hard to keep earning his paycheck.

I'd be willing to trade up a few spots if need be. Then take the best available TE in round 2.

One of my favorite aspects of our All-League secondary last year was that we had our star stud Ramsey, yet Bouye, Gipson, & Church were all originally undrafted.  Crazy.

Another mind-numbing stat: Norwell was the only Olineman in football last year to not allow a single sack or pressure (what?!? Not even a pressure?!? Granted that’s from PFF and they’re iffy on OL evaluations, but [BLEEP] if true.  That’d be one of the most dominant years an Olineman has ever had in the NFL, and with an unpredictable QB to block for in Cam.)

That’s beyond nuts if he went 16 games without allowing a pressure and also graded as a top 5 run blocker.

Those are like imaginary stats.

• LT Cam
  
• LG Norwell
  
• C Linder
  
• RG Omameh
  
• RT Parnell

Probably our first 3 picks will be OG, TE, QB in any order.

(03-13-2018, 12:05 PM)Upper Wrote: [ -> ]I would agree if our oline wasn't already fine, but I think it was. We were 10th in yards created before contact in the run game and also 10th in pressures allowed per dropback or something like that (it was an NGS stat I forget exactly what it was but we were good). If our top 5 pick RB can't excel behind an already above average line...

I just think we're going to see some diminishing returns with Norwell. Going from above average to good at oline isn't going to be the same from going from below average to good at QB or receiving corps. But like I said it's fine Norwell will obviously help.

That stat does not paint an accurate picture of the Jags' run game in 2017. 
Given Fournette's style of play, a road-grading guard could have significant impact on this offense.

"Jacksonville’s offensive line had a lot of success in run-blocking as the 1.95 yards Jaguars running backs averaged before contact ranked second in the NFL last season."

I dunno man, PFF has us graded even higher than NGS did. I think we were actually just a good run blocking team. I think Fournette's low YPC was more his doing as the olines. Yeldon and Grant had no problem racking up a whopping 5.5 YPC combined.
