NFL.com has us taking Deforest Buckner

Quote:I don't understand why people even create mocks before the the NFL announces all juniors who have declared for the draft. That will not happen until January 22. Analysts should wait until they know who will leave college early.
because we are Jaguars fans and what the hell else are going to talk about during playoff time

I think most people have Hargreaves going 9-12, not top 5.  Of course things could change at the combine if he has an out of this world 40 time

Quote:Just a pass for me. He just did not look all that good to me. Looks like a bust waiting to happen honestly. It almost feels like these writers are trying to influence the draft. Ramsey has been our pick for the longest now it's Buckner or a LT lol. Not even Hargreaves any more huh?


Not many expected us to take Bortles so early.
No commercial messages in sigs

What if an offensive tackle is not a meh pick?

The big end position to me is about as sexy as a nose tackle. We need players who can get to the QB. I'm not saying we can't upgrade Odrick, but this would be a poor choice IMO.

Exactly if we upgrade on Odrick it should be with a player like Muhammad Wilkerson, not Buckner who most will call a bust, since he wont have more the 5 sacks in a season most of his years in the NFL, you dont draft run stuffers in the top 10, see Tyson Alualu.

I was surprised Daniel Jeremiah mocked DeForrest Buckner as a top 5 pick. It is more important to get a pass rusher than a run stuffer in the first round.

Bucker had 12 sacks

But would that translate in the defense that we run? Perhaps, I don't know. If you can get a player for that side who can stop the run AND rush, then great.

We may not run the same defense next season.

Buckner had 10.5 sacks, but his pressure stats overall are pretty disappointing.

FWIW Bucky Brooks mocked Shaq Lawson to the Buccaneers at #9 and Deforest Buckner to the Giants at #10. That looks more accurate than Daniel Jeremiah's mock that has us picking Buckner.

Buckner at Michigan State.... YUCK!


Looked like a less talented Andre Branch out there.

This is going to change a bunch of times as we get closer to the draft. No one was mocking DFJ to us until a little while before the draft, in fact I believe Daniel Jeremiah was pretty consistently mocking him to us. I hope he's wrong this time. I still really hope we someone land Ramsey.

Alualu had double digit sacks in college too, Buckner skill set is not a pass rusher at the pro level

We are looking at his first mock. Obviously it will change many times before the end of April. I take all mock drafts before the combine with a grain of salt.

How would you know what's more accurate?

I honestly don't see it.  I'm not big on his speed.  To me he comes off like he'd do okay as a 5-tech possibly since he's strong and has busy hands, but I don't see the explosion you'd want from a pass rusher.  I'd much rather have Ramsey or Jack

Not feeling Buckner. Bosa, Ramsey, Jack or bust.
