All right guys, we are entering the most boring stretch of the year to be a football fan, so i'll start yet another thread where we rank stuff.  This time, the value of the Jaguars 2017 NFL draft.  If this has already been discussed, let the flogging begin! I've been busy.  This is not a ranking of who will be best as a pro, but rather what value was best for the pick (round, need, position, talent, etc.)  I'll kick it off...

 

1) Cam Robinson - A potential upper echelon starting left tackle in the second round?  Sign me up!  Somebody pinch me when we finally get a stud LT. Fingers crossed.

 

2) Dede Westbrook - A character risk in the fourth, and a debatable need, but this is a passing league and go watch his tape!  Hopefully he's grown up.

 

3) Jalen Myrick - You can't teach speed, and because of this deep db class, getting this guy in the 7th at a position of need is phenomenal.

 

4) Leonard Fournette - The hardest one to place.  A phenomenal prospect at a position of need, which will also help Bortles and his struggles. But a RB at 4 is tough.

 

5) Dawuane Smoot - A talented guy joins a team at a position with a lot of talent. I love having deep talent on the DL and I have a good feeling about this kid.  Almost put him above Fournette but he comes with some questions after a scheme change and talent drop off as a senior.  I think 5 years from now we will love this pick.  Would he have been available in the fourth?  This will be a very interesting pick to watch.

 

6) Blair Brown - Fills a need, shows potential, has speed, good draft slot.  Very solid pick, just not sure what he turns into as a pro.

 

7) Marquez Williams - Fullback in the 7th, right where he should be.
