Nice thread. Even though we are under newish management, the team usually selects a couple of guys they hold private workouts for (Ngakoue, Bowanko). Hope the have OLine stacked up and ready to go!
Don't know if there's a workout or visit scheduled, but:

<p class="" style="font-size:26px;"><a class="" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Jaguars?src=hash'>#Jaguars</a> are still apparently looking for bigger bodies at safety. JAX has shown interest in UVA S Kelvin Rainey (6-1, 205), per source.
LOL...
I tried Googling the topic narrowed to within the past week, and the most relevant link was to this thread.
Maybe the staff change made us start playing our cards different. Especially, with TC at the helm and all the visit in previous years.
On March 10th NFL.com posted Johnathan Allen had meetings lined up with Jaguars and Bears.
Jaguars have also met or will be meeting with Julie'n Davenport OT out of Bucknell, Evan Engram TE out of Ole Miss, David Jones FS out of Richmond, Javancy Jones OLB out of Jacksonville State, Cam Robinson OT out of Alabama, Eric Wilson MLB out of Cincinnati.
Right now I am all in on Malik hooker at 4. Let's get a play making safety back there as soon as possible. Dat boy got skills.
UTC DE Keionta Davis - fits Alualu's current role well as a strongside DE. He's not a natural edge rusher with the hips and bend and all that, but he's got power and ability to take on and get by the TEs he'd constantly face on the strong side. Davis would have to make the roster as a rotational DE alongside Campbell.
North Carolina State center Joseph Scelfo - athletic and instinctive natural C ...will need some work in NFL weight room.
It's interesting that both players have long 34" airms. Is this a trait they're looking for?
Quote:Thought I'd make a thread for this seeing as how we are starting to get info about who we are working out.
So far all I have seen is:
"UTC DE Keionta Davis has workouts lined up with #Titans and #Jaguars"
http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/keio...id=2557930
"North Carolina State center Joseph Scelfo has a private workout with the Jaguars on April 1st at NC State"
http://www.nfl.com/draft/2017/profiles/j...id=2557950
Davis is extremely underrated. 6'3" 271 lbs. and had 10.5 sacks and 3 forced fumbles last season. I was also really impressed with his performance at the Senior Bowl where he fared very well against much better competition racking up 6 tackles and a sack. He seems like an ideal edge rusher. He's one of those guys who could go anywhere from round 3 to round 6.

It's a sought after trait in defensive linemen moreso than OL guys, but it's also valued to some degree in OTs - a little less-so in interior O-linemen.
Though I can't find the measurement, supposedly the other guy Keionta Davis would be competing with - Jonathan Woodard - also has very long arms.

Rainey isn't as easy to look into since he's didn't go to the combine, but his pro day numbers are in. Rainey weighed in at 6' 0 7/8", 196 lbs., and he ran a 4.68 40 with a 1.65 10-yard split. He did 12 reps with a 33" vert and a 9' 9" broad... and shuttle/3-cone times of 4.52 and 6.77.

- Julien Davenport - 6-7, 318lb OT with 36 1/2" arms ... started every game dominating each one, but really poor competition means he'll need a full season to develop especially if he plans to play LT which is possible for him. Projected as a 3rd round prospect.
- Even Engram - same as Gerald Everett except he ran a 4.4... Do the Jaguars take him at #35 and kiss Neal Sterling good bye?
- David Jones - Impressive pro day for FS... 6' 1 1/8", 205lb, 4.43 40, 1.50 10-yd split, 12 reps, 34" vert, 10'9" broad, 4.32 and 7.31 drills
- Javancy Jones - 6'1", 245 OLB ... 6th round grade ... I understand the "no more OTTO talk" ... but this guy defines the OTTO.
http://texanswire.usatoday.com/2017/01/21/2017-draft-watch-javancy-jones-makes-strong-shrine-game-impression/
- Cam Robinson - If you get him at #35, where do you start him?
- Eric Wilson - 6' 1 1/8", 230lb MLB led UC Bearcats this past season with 129 tackles... started playing in 7th grade...graded #17 out of 207 ILBs... projected to go undrafted before pro day, but ran a 4.5 flat at Pro Day. ...also did 25 reps and had a 39 1/2" vert. ...met with the Jaguars, Jets, Colts and Bengals.

This kid makes a lot of sense as a developmental FS prospect that may find a ST niche. 7th rounder most likely. Maybe priority UDFA.

I like David Jones a lot, but I believe the kid will get drafted anywhere from rounds 5 to 7.

That's my man! He has caught the injury bug here of late, but I get the feeling that his tape and those numbers he just put up will require a Fifth in order to get him.
Then again, I drink the kool aid maybe just a bit much...
Corn Elder CB Miami reportedly met with Jaguars. Says he is close to Jalen.
"#Miami CB Corn Elder had a formal meeting at the NFL Combine with the #Jaguars. He also said Jalen Ramsey and him are very close."
Love this. One of my favourite guys in the draft. Can be an elite slot guy in the NFL and tackles like crazy.
He'd little, but he does appear to be a polished corner already. I prefer Kazee as the same guy but only better, but in the late rounds I have no issues with Elder.

Elder will be going in the 3rd or so. He's very very good.
