Jacksonville Jaguars Mock Draft Roundup 1.0
Throughout the year and leading up to the 2021 NFL draft, we will update our Jacksonville Jaguars Mock Draft Roundup showing picks for the Jacksonville Jaguars from several prominent sites and draft analysts.
The following are picks in recent mock drafts for the Jaguars:
Pro Football Network - DiCecco (6/7)
1) Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB Clemson
16) Jacksonville Jaguars (via Rams): Pat Freiermuth, TE Penn State
The Jaguars invested various resources into the tight end position in recent years, but the glaring lack of production has largely hindered the offense. Freiermuth, the unanimous top tight end in this class, gives Lawrence a security blanket and red zone target that can work all three levels of the field.
Fox Sports - McIntyre (6/7)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars -- Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
11. Jacksonville Jaguars (via Los Angeles Rams) -- Patrick Surtain Jr, CB, Alabama
The Rams rebounded from a shaky offseason to have a very good draft. Still, a difficult season awaits. Surtain will probably be the second best defensive back in America in 2020 after LSU sophomore Derek Stingley.
Walter Football (5/19)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
6. Jacksonville Jaguars: Walker Little, OT, Stanford
The Jaguars need to make sure Trevor Lawrence is protected as well as possible. Their offensive line stinks right now and is in dire need of some upgrades. Walker Little was projected as a top-10 prospect in the 2020 NFL Draft before he suffered an injury. He'll be back to that designation in 20201 if he can show that he's healthy.
CBS Sports - Edwards (5/12)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
18. Jacksonville Jaguars: Kyle Pitts, TE, Florida
Jacksonville has an affinity for the University of Florida: Jawaan Taylor, Taven Bryan and now C.J. Henderson. Pitts has great body control down the field and will be an ideal option for Trevor Lawrence.
CBS Sports - Trapasso (5/4)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
15. Jacksonville Jaguars (via LAR): Alaric Jackson, OL, Iowa
Jackson is next in a long line of Iowa tackles who enter the NFL after being highly regarded as a prospect. While his balance could improve, he's massive, ultra-strong, and moves well for his size.
PFF - Renner (4/30)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars -- QB Trevor Lawrence, Clemson
15. Jacksonville Jaguars -- OT Walker Little, Stanford
Little had cleaned up the hitch in his kick-slide last year against Northwestern and looked poised for a big year before going down with an injury for the season. He's got the physical tools to be a complete tackle in the league.
San Diego Union Tribune (4/29)
1. Jacksonville (150/1) -- Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
15. Jacksonville from L.A. Rams (33/1) -- Chuba Hubbard, RB, Oklahoma State
The Cowboys haven't had a running back selected in the first round since Barry Sanders in 1989. Can Hubbard top his sophomore season (2,094 yards and 21 touchdowns)?
SI - Hanson (4/27)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
15. Jacksonville Jaguars (via LAR): Liam Eichenberg, OT, Notre Dame
While I like small-school prospect Ben Bartch, left tackle Cam Robinson will be a free agent in 2021 and there has been some speculation about moving him inside this season. A potential first-round pick had he declared in 2020, Eichenberg returns to South Bend as a three-year starter at left tackle and has the length and athletic feet to protect Trevor Lawrence's blind side for a long time.
Bleacher Report - Miller (4/27)
3. Jacksonville Jaguars -- QB Trevor Lawrence, Clemson
17. Jacksonville Jaguars (from Rams) -- OT Alex Leatherwood, Alabama
After finding a quarterback of the future in Trevor Lawrence, the Jaguars go the route of the 2020 Miami Dolphins and select a left tackle of the future, too. Alex Leatherwood was another surprise return to Alabama this season, but the senior-to-be has the pedigree, tools and potential to become a first-round left tackle prospect with time to improve his agility and timing in pass protection. With a good offseason and regular season, Leatherwood can move into the top 15 next year.
SB Nation - Kadar (4/27)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
16. Jacksonville Jaguars (from Rams): Samuel Cosmi, OT, Texas
If the Jaguars do take a quarterback at the top of the draft, it would be smart to target a pass blocker with their second pick. Cosmi started his first two seasons at right tackle for Texas and will switch to the left side this year.
The Athletic - Brugler (4/27)
1. Jacksonville Jaguars -- *Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
17. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR) -- Trey Smith, OG, Tennessee
Coming back from a career-threatening injury, Smith returned to form last season as a junior, bouncing defensive linemen around the field. As long as the medicals are clean, his power and point-of-attack skills project very well to the NFL game.
