Jacksonville Jaguars in Drivers Seat for Trevor Lawrence After Ngakoue Trade

Let the cries of "Tanking for Trevor" begin becuase the Jacksonville Jaguars are well on their way to securing the No. 1 overall pick for the 2021 NFL draft.

Jacksonville entered a full-blown rebuild once they traded defensive end Yannick Ngakoue to the Minnesota Vikings whether the organization is willing to admit its current direction or not. On paper, the Jaguars are the NFL's worst team entering the '20 campaign and best-positioned to eventually claim the future first selection, thus securing a franchise quarterback prospect.

In this case, Clemson's Trevor Lawrence is the likely target, especially since the ACC is currently slated to play this fall while Ohio State's Justin Fields may or may not have the opportunity to do so.
