Jacksonville Jaguars 2017 NFL Draft: A Trade Down Must Be Explored

The options at pick four are bountiful for the Jacksonville Jaguars in the 2017 NFL Draft. Running back Leonard Fournette, defensive ends Solomon Thomas and Johnathan Allen, and safety Jamal Adams have all been widely linked to the Jaguars in various mock drafts. Various other prospects have been as well in more extreme mock drafts.

But the move that could prove to be the most valuable for the Jaguars is trading their pick and moving back. By sliding back in the first round, Jacksonville can load up on more picks while also using their new first round selection to take a guy who will still be an immediate improvement.
