If you followed the board leading up to the draft last year, you will remember I correctly predicted the Jags would draft an OT with the #2 pick.  Many people did not believe it, but I used logic and deductive reasoning based on team needs, player ranking/character, and who would probably be available later in the draft at other positions of need to make my best guess.

 

At this point, before the Combine and the Pro Days, it is hard to predict what the 1st round will look like and what the Jags might do.  That being my current guesses are: (of course there will be draft day trades, but unpredictable right now)

 

1. HOU – QB T. Bridgewater
   
   
   
2. STL – DE J. Clowney (STL could go OT, and we would be looking hard at Clowney)
   
   
   
3. JAC – QB Blake Bortles
   
   
   
4. CLE – QB J. Manziel
   
   
   
5. OAK – OT G. Robinson
   
   
   
6. ATL – OT J. Matthews
   
   
   
7. TAM – OLB A. Barr
   
   
   
8. MIN – QB D. Carr
   
   
   
9. BUF – DE/OLB K. Mack
   
   
   
10. DET – WR S. Watkins
    
    
    

 

Round 2 – OC Travis Swanson, Arkansas



Round 3 – WR Davante Adams, Fresno State



Round 4 – RB Lache Seastrunk, Baylor



 

Note:  Some "experts" are predicting Bortles will jump to #1 to the Texans by draft time.  If he doesn't,  I would not be surprised if Cleveland traded up to #2 to take Bortles.  If that happens, we draft Clowney, but are left hanging at QB.  However, Caldwell might reach for Carr at #3, because I doubt he falls to round 2, and the drop off is then huge after him.   Hopefully we could find a LEO in Free Agency or get lucky late in the draft.
