Never forget.  The flashes have been there.  Big play Dave. He's only 24 and the upside is there

Well, he is an inch taller and 35 lbs heavier. Ridley had 76 catches on 136 targets for 1016 yards last year and 8 TDs. Gabe had 45 catches on 81 targets for 746 yards and 7 TD's. Their catch per target is almost identical. Gabe's yards per catch was higher at 16.6 vs Ridley's 13.4. If Gabe's catch per target ratio stayed the same, given the same number of targets as Ridley he would have produced 1520 yards to Ridley's 1016.
another plus is for the same money as Ridley we got to get a veteran center. (BONUS) I actually believe the groupof recievers we have will produce much more without Ridley. Treavor will spread the ball more. I know Ridley was pressed more than any other receiver in the NFL last year. That was because he was most always the first read. Other teams knew this and their strategy was to take away TL's first read as their rush would get there before he could move on. Just my opinion.

This supports adding a receiver like Legette in round 2 or a developmental WR/TE in round 3, rather than reaching for Mitchell or Thomas in Round 1. 

I'm now definitely seeing corner or D-line in round 1.

Legette might be gone by the time the Jags pick, but if he's there that's a no-brainer.  Really think they will go with CB in round 1 because that appears to be where the value will be.

Legette is an interesting prospect. It's just concerning it took him until year five to breakout because his previous four years are very, very minimal. Especially with his size and speed. People keep saying he's D.K Metcalf. He's honestly built more like A.J Brown.

Davis has a ton of upside though. Is established. Can offer some big plays downfield. I just hope he can stay consistent and healthy. I am in agreement that this team is not going WR with the 17th pick. Doesn't fit Baalke's M.O. We still have areas of need elsewhere. CB, DT and even EDGE could use another prominent talent to develop or start immediately.

I am leaning more towards Ricky Pearsall, Troy Franklin, Ladd McConkey, Javon Baker & Malik Washington in this draft class personally. Coming up with any one of those five receivers would bode well in the long run for this offense. Especially with contracts looming in the near future set to expire with Kirk and Jones.

My biggest sleeper pick is Hayden Hatten out of Idaho. Would be a guy I would take in RD6 or RD7 if he's there. Good size, good speed. Big play ability. Very productive over the last two years. Would be an interesting player to compete with Elijah Cooks for a roster spot.

I don't think you can be listed 30 lbs lighter than someone and be compared physically to that someone.  That's quite a bit of a difference.

  I didnt compare them physically. Im comparing them as WRs , both very similar styles. Metcalf was 19 pounds heavier at his combine than Thomas Jr. Metcalf is a little stronger but both are the same height, both run a 4.3, both vertical deep threats that's not very good route runners coming out, both very athletic which Thomas has a little bit higher ras and is 9th All time.  2 very similar players imo and I wanted us to draft Metcalf coming out.

Definitely the type of wr we need.

What number do you think Gabe wears? 12 and 19 are available.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.

6 foot 2 and 225 pounds.

1 inch taller and 10 pounds heavier, and he'd be a tight end.

I'm anxious to see how Davis performs this season. His big-play ability is undeniable, but also is his inconsistency. Hard to believe he's still only 25 years old so I guess he was worth the investment.
