If he's there at #3, by all means pull the trigger, but if he goes earlier, let him go and draft a non-QB at #7. Then trade up with one of our 3rds to the tail end of round one to get a QB with the 5th year option. One or two more might be gone, but there's sure to be someone there whether it's Murray, Grier, Jones or Lock.  Straight up I grade all four rather evenly so just get any one of them. Even in a worst case scenario where all four go, I'm sure Finley will still be there and he's just about as good too. 

If Haskins isn't possible (and they refuse to consider Murray, which is probably likely) then I'd much prefer them to trade back from 7 and pick up some extra picks, one of which could go on the QB later in the first. It doesn't appear there is much value for an offensive player at 7 tbh, and drafting a defensive player would cause a meltdown of sorts. Especially if they then gave away one of our 3rds to trade back into the first. If we can't get Haskins, and won't get Murray, then trade back and get more much-needed picks.

It's true, and I understand there are valid reasons for concern with Murray. But screw it, I'm willing to put it on record that I absolutely think he will be a special player in this league and could well be next on the long list of QBs the Jags regret not drafting.
