Acceptable Surpluses

Therefore, there are no positions I'd pass on if the player is clearly the BAP at the time of the selection. That being said, it is very unlikely I'd take a player in rounds 1 or 2 at wide receiver or running back since these are positions of relative strength for the Jaguars. Once round 3 begins, however, I wouldn't hesitate to grab a Dynami Brown at receiver or Michael Carter at running back if I believed they were the BAP at that time.

The one position I would "reach" for is tight end due to that being the team's greatest weakness. I'm clearly in the minority by wanting them to select Freirmuth at pick 33. That being said, if Eichenberg, Moehrig or Collins also happen to be on the board at that time, I'd have to select them over Freirmuth. If that did happen, I'd have to either take Brevin Jordan or Hunter Long in round 3 or trade a 4th for Njoku. Although I used the term "reach" for Freirmuth, that is based only on his pre-draft rankings which typically make him a mid-2nd rounder. Personally, I believe Freirmuth will prove to be more than worthy of the 33rd pick.

How does Freirmuth compare to past TE prospects with measurables? What are some pro comparisons? 

I hate the idea of reaching for any player just because it's a glaring need. That's how you end up with a mediocre/poor roster. The Jaguars aren't going to the Super Bowl and probably not the playoffs next year even if TE is filled. Why not wait another year if there's a better BAP in round 2 or 3 than the available TE?
