Or is it?

Around the interwebs as of late, there has been much (uninformed) discussion about who the Jaguars will take with the 7th pick.  I’m not talking about the people who create mock drafts and feel the pressure of the web community bearing down on them so they predict the Jags scooping up Quinton Coples or some other “safe” pick.
