Evaluating the tight ends of the 2019 draft class for the Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars are in desperate need for a quality tight end. Marcedes Lewis was a great player and contributed to the team in many different ways for over a decade, but he was not a star receiving tight end. He was more known for his outstanding blocking ability than his ability as a game-breaking pass catcher.

Julius Thomas was signed in the 2015 offseason in hopes he would provide a consistent red zone threat, but it turned out that he was more a product of Peyton Manning than a true star tight end so he was traded to Miami.
