Multiple sites have revealed their "way too early 2021 mock draft"

The 3 that I have checked out, all have the Jaguars getting Lawrence. 2 of them have us with the #1 pick. The other has Trevor falling to us at #3.

If Minshew plays pretty good, (~26td, 10int) but Jaguars struggle, is there any chance we wouldn't go T-Law next season? Penei Sewell is a nice consolation prize.
P.s. lets hope the Rams have a terrible season and we get two picks in the top 10.

Prediction: Jags start 2-11. Then win their final 3 games to take them from 1st pick to #7.

Because Jaguars.

Minshew is going to win us some games next year, unfortunately Minshew is tooo much of a winner for us to go anything lower that 6-10 next year.

Jaguars have the worst odds to win the Super Bowl, so I reckon that means best chance at #1 pick as well.

Yep. And the only chance that they'll have at landing Lawrence is if the Rams finish horrible due to an injury to Goff. Or, a team that lost it's franchise QB for the year couldn't overcome that loss and they really don't have a need for Lawrence. In that case? You're probably forking over both of your first round pick's to move up to numero uno. Potentially a 2nd RD pick and maybe even a future 1st and/or 2nd. 

It could very well be that demanding for a prospect like Lawrence.

"What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."

I’m on board with this. I think Lawrence can have a Mahomes like cultural impact. How many 1st rounders would you give up for an Rodgers, Mahomes, or Brady. What if he has that kind of impact?

---

Wanting to get the #1 pick is a horrible idea, because it means you have to really suck to get it. If I have a choice between our team getting better next year or getting worse, I would hope we get better.

None of those three were number one overall picks, so the teams they landed on didn't have to suck to get them.  Trying to get the #1 pick so you can draft a particular player is a horrible idea, because it means you have to have the worst team in the league, and that is not the path to the Super Bowl.

Indeed!
Bucs and tacks recently had the #1 and #2 overall picks.
Neither of those guys worked out. And those teams are now operating with FA veterans in hopes to win a SB.
Baker Mayfield didn't exactly launch his team into prominence. Neither did Sam Bradford...
Jamarcus Russel... Alex Smith...
David Carr and to some extent guys like Stafford and Goff haven't exactly done much except dig the teams from the cellar into middling.

I hate it when people want to "suck for" a player. Hell, it really didn't work out for the clots either.
You try to improve your roster every year at any position and get better not worse. Take your QB when you need to where you need to. Watson and Mahomes look to be working out for the teams that took them instead of sucking on purpose.

Because Jaguars.

Or we end up winning just enough games to select at #5, so we can't get Lawrence, Fields, Chase, or the Oregon tackle. 

Meanwhile, the Rams have a resurgence and are NFL's surprise team after Garropolo, Russell, and Murray suffer injuries (or something). 

Because Jaguars.

I think there are worse teams or teams that should equally be in that discussion, but the small-market team is easy to pick on. 

Miami is not going to set the world on fire with rookie Tua/Fitzpatrick
Cincy is not making the playoffs with rookie Joe and a brutal division
Jets are going nowhere
Tyrod isn't taking the Chargers to the playoffs
Redskins still need a QB
Giants/Daniel Jones are on par with the Jags
Lions are the Lions
Bears may fizzle again
Rams outside of two defensive stars aren't as talented as Jags

Is he can't miss though? Did he not play badly in his last bowl game or was that someone else?

I mean they weren’t far off with that top 10.

Lawrence or Fields would be fine by me.

It won’t happen though. We’ve got enough talent to win at least four games and Minshew will probably pull one out of the bag with some unlikely comeback win.

It’ll be the Redskins or Panthers probably and we’ll be wondering what to do with the fifth pick again.

Why Panthers? Their division may be the hardest in football but team wise they’re better than the Jags. Especially on offense.

Because they only won five games last year, had one of the worst defenses (conceding an average of nearly 30 points a game, with a run defense worse than ours) and aside from McCaffrey and Moore haven't got much on offense either.

(And yes, because they're in a tough division)

That's why their Vegas odds are so bad.

If we get the first pick then we absolutely go Lawrence, he was a number 1 pick since he started college football. Best qb prospect since Luck. With tht being said i really dont think we're picking first, unfortunately we will win 4 to 6 meaningless games and miss out on him. This franchise has been so bad I almost will be rooting for us to lose, i believe Lawrence is that great. In that Elway, Manning and Luck sure shot number 1 mold.... dont wanna hear that no sure shot BS either.

---

Yeah, I’d be lying if the idea of Trevor Lawrence leading this team for the next 15-20 years didn’t excite me. I am the biggest Minshew homer there is, but Trevor’s upside is too much to look over.

There most likely won’t be fans in the stands this year so if there was ever a year to suck, this is the year to do it lol.

And the Jags odds are worse. They upgraded their defense, have Samuel and Robby Anderson to go with Moore and upgraded their QB position.

They are in an infinitely better spot than the Jags.
