Vic K would say WRs are a dime a dozen.

 

Regardless of how you feel about Chad Henne and his arm strength our OLine had our star LT traded to the Ravens, our star rookie LT injured out for the season (hopefully he'll be back to before), our Center retired, and our star franchise running back is now an Oakland Raider.

That being said I have faith/hope that Dave Caldwell is working his magic, and that this running back from Minnesota (Gerhart) will be eager to prove he is an elite running back but wasnt given the chance due to the shadow of AP.   The team has/had an elite WR in Justin Blackmon so we had thought but his off field shannigans and inconsitencey makes him irrelevant. In the last couple of decades the Jaguars make the leap to draft a star WR in the 1st round only to fail every time. 

On the other side the team has struggled to draft an elite pass rusher in the first round too, Derrick Harvey got a lot of fans excited only to be a miserable failure.  I remember reading all the pretend hype about Tyson AluAlu being this great pass rusher whom became really a run stopper just like Harvey was.

The team has been the league's worst at pass rushing for several years, but I feel that Clowney is that guy that could change everything.

 

The problem is the Jaguars seem to stink at sucking too.  Think about the hype around A. Luck QB, the Colts finished worst to draft him everyone kind of knew he would go first & the same thing happened this year with Houston getting Clowney.  The key to our division an elite pass rusher & an elite QB and two of the teams in our division have both.

 

To answer this poll, it is a team sport and one player cant do it all but they do have what is known as premium positions and an elite DE is more desireable than an elite WR by any franchise if they are equally in skills at respectable slots.
