The Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Ohio State nose tackle Davon Hamilton with the No. 73 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Hamilton was a big part of what Ohio State did up front this past year. Aiding in a run defense that allowed just 2.98 yards per rush — good for No. 6 in the nation — he showed tremendous value in the ground game, with the ability to clog the lane and slow down opposing running backs even when still engaged with a blocker. At 6-foot-4, 310 pounds, he was also able to use his size to bull rush the QB and quickly constrict the pocket, forcing hurried throws and occasionally leading to a sack.
