How would you feel about this draft scenario?

#1

Rules: if you don't like a player advise why or why not. (No need to say "he won't be there")


Round 1 - Fournette rb

Round 2 - Peppers weapon

Round 3 - Webb qb

How about you advise us why you selected those players in the first place.

If you think Peppers will be a versatile weapon just because of what he did at Michigan, forget about it. He might play on both special teams and defense, but NFL players usually don't play both linebacker and safety (Tryann Mathieu is a rare exception). As a full-time safety and punt returner, I would like the pick. No thanks if he wants to be a linebacker.

 

We have much bigger needs at #68 than quarterback.

Fournette bc our Running game was atrocious. And Bortles can't carry a team.


Peppers bc I think he could fall due to a lack of a true position but he's a good football player


Webb bc he put up some big numbers and he could push Bortles as a starter. And we need a QB incase Bortles picks up where he left off.

Bortles can't carry a team that has no run game. Give him a running back and run blockers, and he will be fine.

You have to give your reasons.

 

The Leonard Fournette pick is obvious - maybe the BAP in addition to filling a need. Jabrill Peppers on the other paw is an unknown commodity because nobody knows where to put him.

It's very hard to make a mock draft without free agency over with. Free agency will change everything. We could draft OL, DL, SS, CB, or RB in the 1st. But assuming we fix our OL through free agency then we can get Fournette in the 1st and a OL in the 2nd.

I can't think of a 'realistic' scenario that could possibly be worse, to be honest. Sorry.

I'd climb to the highest peak in Ireland with a Jaguars jersey proudly wrapped around me and jump off.

Would you draft vick if had cunningham?


Would you draft moss if had owens?


Would you draft j taylor if have l taylor?


Why we would spend the 1st pick on a guy when we already have him.


Would make zero sense.

Probably the most NOPE-ist NOPE scenario I could ever imagine.

1.  Yes.  Cunningham was finished by the time Vick came around.

 

2.  Yes.  Then I'd have Moss and Owens, and match up advantages for years.

 

3.  Yes.  Not only can you not have enough pass rushers, but Taylor would have been ancient by the time Jason Taylor came around.

 

4.  Fournette is younger (Ivory turns 29 next month), bigger (6'1, 235 v. 6' 222), not a fumbler, faster, and a better overall prospect than Ivory (Nfl.com compared him to Bo Jackson).

 

It wouldn't make zero sense.

 

Might there be better picks for the Jaguars?  Yeah. 

 

But don't say it makes zero sense when the Jaguars best rusher last year only had 465 yards.

 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

You mean the guy that has only 1 "barely" thousand yard season.

Yeah, "Great" RB is a bit of a stretch here.  Ivory hasn't done much at all and I'd take quite a few guys in this draft over him.

This draft is loaded with RBs. 

 

I don't like taking any RB at 4 considering Garrett, Allen, Adams or Thomas will be there. Get a defensive stud to make this defense even better and then build the Oline. Find a RB later in like round 3 or 4.

Peppers could indeed fall because he doesn't have a true position.  On the other hand, I wouldn't draft a player who doesn't have a true position.

They said similar things about Carnell Lake, Darren Woodson, Brian Urlacher and Jevon Kearse.

 

Would you not draft them?
