Mitchell could ultimately become the top cornerback from this class, but his lack of stellar competition at Toledo could lead to a challenging rookie season. His Senior Bowl week was great, but I still expect a big learning curve. If Terrion Arnold is still on the board at 17, he would undoubtably be my first choice at corner and most likely be the pick. He is the most well-rounded corner who is very good at press coverage- a trait that Ryan Nielson would love in his cornerbacks. If Arnold was not there, I'd likely take Newton to provide the much needed pass rush from the inside. Even if Hamilton returns at full-strength, having Newton would greatly help the defense. Since the Jaguars lack a true nose tackle, they would also want to find one in free agency or the draft to play alongside Newton.

The remainder of his draft is very strong- especially the selections of Frazier and Fiske. If Newton is the 1st round pick, Fiske would not be as needed. However, he should be a very solid pro. Based on what he said about Frazier, I'd be hard-pressed to find a better 2nd round pick. The value of Frazier in round 2 is likely going to be better than JPJ in round 1. If the 1st 2 rounds were Arnold and Frazier, I'd be elated.

I don't agree with his feelings about losing both Ridley and Zay Jones. I expect at least one of these receivers to return- especially with the significant increase in salary cap announced today. Regardless, I would still draft a receiver on day 2 or at the start of round 4. McMillan was a solid pick as would have been Ricky Pearsall.

I plan on following the Mock Draft Guy to get more insight regarding the Jaguars as well as other NFL teams.

You like Arnold better than McKinstry?  Other than Humphrey what good corners have come out of Alabama?   I wish Mitchell played against better competition as well but he donminated everyone he went up against.  Teams didnt really throw at him and when they did it wasnt good for them.  Cant wait to see how all these players test and see how these corners move in the drills


Maybe the most domiant game by corner ever

4 Int and 2 pick 6s
