NewEra Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 With the 39th pick in the NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars select, Elijah Moore, WR, Mississipi. With DJ Chark and Marvin Jones on the outside and Shenault lining up all over the place, including the backfield, we felt that we needed to give Trevor Lawrence a top tier slot WR that can also take the top off the defense. Moore has speed, quickness and is electric with the ball in his hands. We see him as the perfect compliment to our current WR unit and can’t wait to utilize his speed. This pick, along with Teven Jenkins, will make James Robinsons job easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just have to look beyond 2021. Seems like everyone is hell bent on adding a player that will have the biggest impact on the 2021 season.....while Beane is likely adding the BPA at a position of relative need and positional value. This is a very good WR class imo. A class with speed. We need speed on O. It’s one of our biggest needs. The WRs we have under contract for 2021: Diggs and Davis (and Hodgins, if he makes the team). Our O should maintain 5 very good WRs imo. That’s what we do. Throw the ball 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope we can land a corner with one of our first 2 picks. We NEEE one. Badly. Maybe even another one in rd 5-7. We need more athletes in the secondary. Speed. Our current corners are a step below what I’d like athletically. Draft a couple cbs that can hit and run Just now, Virgil said: The Broncos @whatdrought are on the clock My fault.

I don't see how that would make any sense whatsoever, unless the value was just too great to ignore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got a freak to run our offense, now we get a freak to run our defense. He’s big, long, and fast. I love this guy in the middle with what we have around him and with our re-vamped secondary.

Everyone is infatuated with DeVonta Smith but I don't see a special receiver. #18 is confusing because they can go in different directions. I'm thinking its Zaven Collins, trade down, or EDGE.

In 1997, the Colts drafted Tarik Glenn and Adam Meadows in rounds 1 and 2. The following season, they drafted Peyton Manning. I think that Bill Polian was the GM. They seem to have fared pretty well. The Dolphins have a QB that had a rough rookie season and needs help. I got him Pitts and two young, talented OTs and make no apologies.

Two more first rounders this year would make three firsts and a second round pick invested in the position over only two drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracking and that makes sense based on why you went with the different skill set. the value is there as well, depending how people look at skill sets. I just have Browning a little bit higher of a grade, this pick isnt a value buster. The lowest graded player I have on my board that has already been taken is Alex Leatherwood.
