Jacksonville Jaguars fans all hold differing opinions as to who exactly the Jaguars should select during the 2017 NFL Draft. There is seemingly two popular train’s of thought that separates the fan base, in that the Jaguars should either draft a pass rusher with the 4th overall pick, or a running back.
In this mock draft, I’m going to address the Jaguars’ 1st round pick, as well as the rest of their draft, as if I was in general manager Dave Caldwell’s shoes: Who would I select to improve the Jaguars’ roster in the 2017 Draft?
1st round (4th overall): Jonathan Allen, DE, Alabama
Allen is a high floor defensive talent that can help lift Jacksonville’s pass rush to being one of the best in the league.
