Zone reaction: Talking tight end

“The Jaguars sounded like a team studying tight end very closely” – and three other thoughts from senior writer John Oehser after Friday’s 2018 pre-draft luncheon
I would be shocked if the Jaguars didn't pick a tight end in the 1st or 2nd round. This team needs a threat in the middle of the field.
Ian Thomas in the 2nd round would be my guess. He has been a riser in mock drafts and likely won't make it to the Jags pick in round 3. I'd like to see them take Wynn or Hernandez in the first and Thomas in the second.

I think there is a chance he does fall to our 3rd round pick. In any case, he flashes big play ability and would be a great addition.
Listening to Caldwell, my guess is that they have some people they want at the bottom of round one, but if they are off the board, or several of them are still on the board, they may trade back out of the round.
I am also growing more intrigued by Ian Thomas. He seems to make a lot of big plays from the TE position.
No way they don't take a TE before the fifth round.

Crazy drops of players at other positions or TEs going way higher than anticipated would be the only way it doesn't happen IMO.
I want a TE obviously, but I hope Ryan O wasn't right in his thinking that they specifically want Hurst.

What about Hurst do you not like?
