Maurice Jones-Drew came out to make the third round selection for the Jacksonville Jaguars, bringing the 69th pick to the team. Yannick Ngakoue was the selection, bringing a possible stud to the team at defensive end.
Ngakoue is a solid defensive end with room to grow into a solid starter and possible stud at the position. He played at Maryland over three seasons with the last two totaling 28 tackles for a loss and 19 sacks.
Those are the kind of numbers that the Jaguars were hoping for in a third round defensive end. After passing on the edge rusher position in free agency and the first two rounds of the 2016 NFL Draft (who could blame them with Myles Jack and Jalen Ramsey), it made sense to get a productive pass rusher with room to grow as well.
