I have a feeling, though, that 3 years from now we'll be sorry that the Jaguars didn't trade up for him. He is likely to do for his new team what Kelce does for the Chiefs.

If Bowers is there in the teens you absolutely trade up for him imo.  He is the one player that could help take this offense over the top. I think he is the 3rd best player in the draft behind MHJ and Alt.  Never did I think we would have a chance in hell at Bowers after last season.  I dont think there has ever been a perfect prospect for a Doug Pederson offense.

Kirk, Gabe, ETN, Engram & Bowers could really pose a multitude of matchup problems for opposing defenses with how versatile Engram/Bowers can both line up. I agree with Cleatwood where the "process" of choosing Strange last year in the 2nd and then potentially grabbing Bowers would end up as inefficient/wasted opportunities but I'm warming up to the idea for Bowers if he falls far enough.

I'm a BIG fan of Nabers and Odunze as well but if there's a coach/team who could utilize multiple TE sets in creative ways Doug Pederson's offense would be just that.
