The selection of Michael Bennett, defensive tackle out of Ohio State, is purely a best player available move by general manager Dave Caldwell. He plays a position the Jaguars are already stacked at, but with the chance to add a second or third round talent in the sixth round, Caldwell simply couldn’t pass him up.
Here’s what the Jaguars have at defensive tackle already:
1) Sen’Derrick Marks
2) Roy Miller
3) Jared Odrick
4) Ziggy Hood
5) Abry Jones
With a base 4-3 defense, two defensive tackles are on the field at any one time.
