Most likely the best available player at the start of the fourth round, Dede Westbrook finds a new home with the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2017 NFL Draft. It was a value pick in the fourth round, getting a player who is capable of being a second-rounder but falls due to character concerns.

Those character concerns likely caused Westbrook to slide but the Jaguars are willing to take a chance on him. If they can give him a stable place to put down some roots and grow, he could become one of the more impressive players on a talented offense.
