Is T.J. Yeldon a Second Round Sleeper?

T.J. Yeldon was a second round pick by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was drafted 36th overall in the 2015 NFL Draft.

That doesn’t sound anything like a sleeper.

But as we look at the coverage of the Yeldon selection, all we seem to hear is how the Jaguars reached for Yeldon at 36th overall and he will really have to struggle to live up to his higher draft slot.

The fact of the matter is that the Jacksonville Jaguars front office thought that Yeldon was worth getting at 36th overall. They thought he could help their football team and that he was the best available at his position.
