I don't get into much draft scouting so I was weary when we took him to say the least. But so far I've been extremely impressed, possibly the first jaguars rookie that I've seen that looked like an elite talent right out of the gate. Props to Trent Balke and the rest for this one.

He's going to be unstoppable when he actually learns more pass rush technique. He's a total disruptor.
It definitely seems like we hit on this one

Great to see an early pick work out
Very happy with our last 2 drafts so far.
Watch him on this play. He's pretty impressive already.

I'm not surprised. I don't think we could have missed with either him or Hutch. Walker probably fits better schematically.

So, as I understand it, +800 is the same as 8 to 1 odds, right?   

I'm not sure I trust 50 AP sportswriters to make the correct choice.

Walker should move up a spot after the injury to Thibodeaux this weekend.
How's Hutchinson been doing this preseason?

Seems like has been pretty solid from my extensive google search.
So far, he has me regretting doubting him.

+800 is 7 to 1, if I recall correctly.

But yeah, you should never bet on something that can be rigged so easily.  "The horse's head in my bed said for Hutch".

He had one play that looked much better than it was in his first preseason game, tackle whiffed on him and he got a tfl. Again, its been overblown by the media and it did look impressive until you see the closeup.

X2 atm I'm looking at a major crow eating feast at the rate he is going

Personally, I favored Hutchinson, who is also having a really good preseason, but definitely hope Travon exceeds Hutch's performance.   Hope they both excel, as I'd like to see the Lions become competitive in the NFC North.   As long as they are starting Goff, I highly doubt they will challenge the Pack or Vikings
I wanted Hutch because I didn't believe in Travons floor out the gate. He had the higher ceiling but I didn't want a project. The fact that both are performing well gives me a plus 1 for TWalk. He has more athleticism etc with a higher ceiling. My crow is doubting Walker. We took the better player imo.
