Is the Thomas pick good? Depends, this game has 2 more days to go. Biggest hurdle is we pick #48 then not again till #96. Thats a big gap there.

Same here. No lie. No cap haha

I wanted the best big uglies. I don't care if this whole draft is linemen. It's always what I hope for. WRs are a dime a dozen if they aren't elite.

And all of them were gone by the Jags pick.

I'd love a shot at Fiske from FSU in the later rounds.

Worthy and Pearsall in the first seems more like Balke and crew were on point.

SF just got a steal

They got a mid 2nd round QB at pick 31 bud.

Yep. The run went early, then it got cold for a minute. It's a deep WR class but they went higher than expected.

You'll see a run early tomorrow night as well. Mitchell, Coleman, Franklin, McConkey & Baker will be the next wave.

Walker and Burton are also good values for some teams. Our focus should now shift immediately over onto IOL, IDL and CB for the next three selections.

Yeah. They did. Was wishful thinking he would be a RD2 selection. Too good of an athlete.

Actually the NFL forced the trade. They had mistakenly run a commercial the pick before us.

lol dang, funny tho. I think the trade was good.

Same!

For those unhappy with ESPN and/or NFL Network, I watched the College Gameday coverage on ABC and it was the best and most enjoyable draft commentary I've ever watched.

As for the actual draft as a Jags fan, I feel every year I get excited, only to be disappointed.  But maybe this year's different????

Players I'd like in round 2:

Cornerbacks:
Cooper DeJean
Kool-Aid
Ennis Rakestraw
T.J. Tampa

Offensive line:
JPJ
Zack Frazier

Others:
Johnny Newton
Kris Jenkins
Marshawn Kneeland


These 9 players stand out and any would be great picks.

So which is it? The Jags seem to like that metric, even though it hasn't exactly meant anything for production.

He scored a long TD against FSU but he also wasn't the focus. When he wasn't the #1 WR on the team, kept under 100 against good teams, he probably wasn't worth the pick. The Jags need a sure fire starter, he'll probably start, but a CB there would have been better.

Nothing says either corner that was bypassed by a lot of teams would have been better than Montaric Brown this upcoming season.   CB in the 2nd round could be just as productive...or could just as likely be a bust.  (See Emmanual Forbes last draft)

This team is going to go as far as Trevor Lawrence takes it, and they just gave him a tall/fast target with skill.    

Let's not be too negative.

Not negative but not a definite #1 WR. He has speed and measurables but hasn't been the #1 WR yet. Hopefully it works out but there were other areas that the team needed to fill. The division has updated the offenses and the Jags need to update the lines and DBs. WR was needed but not at this risk. The options before the trade were all 5 year starters and sign or get comp picks.

I thought ESPN and ABC coverage was the same, no? Either way, it's guys who made their name in college and not the NFL discussing the prospects and it just doesn't have an NFL feel to me.  Had to change away from it quick and have watched it for lengthier periods in years past and just did not care for it.
