Obviously, he must be cleared by the team doctor as well as determining how his physique has changed so dramatically since his injury. The more I hear about the quarterbacks in this draft class, the less sold I am on any of them in the first round. Why not just go with Foles and draft Metcalf in the first round and a tight end in the 2nd. Imagine a receiving corps of Metcalf, Westbrook, Chark and Lee and add in either Hockenson or Irv Smith. The only thing they would then need to address is offensive line in the 3rd and 4th rounds. There should be guys capable of starting at those spots- especially at either guard or center. As far as drafting a quarterback,  they can take someone in the last couple of rounds who will have time to develop. If Foles flops, they can then get their quarterback in the first round next year when the crop looks much stronger.

I sincerely hope that this isn't how the Jags determine who is a strong possibility.

I didn't mean to imply that the Jags should consider him due to physique alone. After watching his highlights from last season, the guy looks like he can do it all. He has enough speed to get deep as well as the ability to catch balls thrown to the middle of the field. He made a couple of one-handed grabs which were incredible. Add in the ability to be a threat in the red-zone due to his height and the comparisons to Josh Gordon (minus the drug issues) seem legitimate. The Jaguars have a terrible track record with 1st round receivers and will need to do their due diligence on this guy prior to the draft. Another Justin Blackmon would set this team back another 3 years and close their Super Bowl window for the unforeseeable future.
