Why did the Jags draft a FULLBACK?

OL & DL) but then again, I also thought we should signed a pass rusher in free agency but what do I really know.    I get it, not everything is perfect, just puzzling.

Ummmm, Because Doug Pederson literally uttered the words "it opens your offense up more [if you can find one of those guys]"

He was willing to roll the dice on adding a new facet. That's cool. 

I don't get the consternation over the 4th pick we had in the seventh round, LOL

It was an afterthought wing and a prayer - why not try for something a bit unique? 

Were y'all expecting Brock Purdy?

Nope.  Just a wasted pick.  That's all.

Opens up the offense.  Lol.   We have Trevor, ETN, Ridley, Kirk, Jones, Engram, Strange, Agnew ..... and they were looking to this guy to open up the offense more.

Well, at least we didn't waste a 2nd round pick on him like the Jags did with Greg Jones (913 career rushing yards).
