The embarrassment from that would greatly exceed 1-15.

We'd never live it down.  People would never bring up "Punter in the third round" or "tyson Alualu" again.  It'd be "Forgot to draft Trevor Lawrence."

As unpleasant as all of the losing as been, I know it happens in the NFL.  But despite it all, I can still wear my Jaguars gear with pride and hope.

If somehow we failed to get the card in on time and we lost out on Trevor Lawrence, that would be my breaking point.  My buddy-the obnoxious Bills fan0would never let me hear the end of it.  I'd have to leave town.  Change my identity.

What would be really funny is, when the commissioner comes out and says, "Welcome to the 2021 NFL Draft, the Jaguars are on the clock."  And he looks down and our rep is in front of the podium waving the card at him.

I'd much rather see that.

ZERO shame whatsoever.
