Quote:I'm totally fine with this draft pick.  They need youth and more production from the Leo position and this guy seems as good a candidate to accomplish that as anyone rated highly in this draft class.  

 

Yes, I was a little more impressed watching Beasley's cut-ups than I was Fowler's -  but by a pretty small margin. 

 

Excited to see what tonight brings for the Jaguars. 

 

Beasley had two problems.   One, he didn't play the run.  At all.   And two, he took plays off.   They played several videos last night to show how he tended to stand around on running plays.  Yes, he rushes the passer really well, but that's not the only thing a front 7 player has to do. 

 

But from everything I hear, Fowler never takes plays off.  

 

Fowler is a 3 down player.   Beasley is a specialty pass rusher.
