The Jacksonville Jaguars currently have a solid amount of draft capital. Their mid-round picks are all dependent on what Calvin Ridley does in the offseason. He hit the statistical benchmarks to give the Atlanta Falcons a third-round pick. However, if he signs an extension with the team in a certain timeframe, the second-round pick would go to Atlanta. For the purposes of this article, we will have the Jaguars pick all of their picks.

Jacksonville Jaguars NFL Draft Needs

The Jacksonville Jaguars need the following positions: CB, WR, EDGE, OT, IOL

The Jacksonville Jaguars need some help on the outside. With Ridley’s fate unknown, the team needs some young talent at the wide receiver position. Lawrence is in the top half of quarterbacks in the NFL. They need to surround him with weapons to maximize his window. On defense, the team could use a lockdown corner. With so many great receivers in the game, the Jaguars need to slow them down to take pressure off the offense.

From there, the Jaguars could use some help on the offensive line. The unit is pretty good but needs to build depth. Injuries on the offensive line killed them last year; a big part of it was the lack of depth. Look for the team to use day three picks to build that depth.

Mock Draft Analysis

It was a toss-up whether to give the Jacksonville Jaguars a CB or a WR with the first-round pick. Ultimately, wide receivers can often be found later in the draft. DeJean was the last top-tier corner on the board, and the Jaguars snagged him. He can play anywhere on the field and even has some special teams value. Getting Polk in the second round isn’t a bad way to wrap up the first two rounds.

They build the trenches in the middle of the draft. Getting Van Pran and Fisher will help build quality depth. Kamara is a wild card at the edge rusher position, but by the fifth round, taking a flyer on a player isn’t a bad idea. Overall, the Jaguars build some depth while adding some electric pieces.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are eager to take back control of the AFC South. This team might have a chip on their shoulder next season, which might help them. Ultimately, any team with a solid quarterback has a chance, and Jacksonville has that in Trevor Lawrence.
