Jacksonville Jaguars Mock Draft 3.0–Get the Big Men Early
By Jacob DeFee
33. Cleveland Browns- T.J. Watt, Defensive End/Linebacker, Wisconsin
The browns bolster their pass rush here and grab another exciting player here for their defense. If T.J. is half the player his brother J.J. is, look out.
34. San Francisco 49ers- Patrick Mahomes, Quarterback, Texas Tech
Mahomes is one of the more athletic quarterbacks in the draft and checks a lot of boxes for what you want in a franchise quarterback. The 49ers are an ideal place for him as we would not have to start right away as he can sit behind Brian Hoyer for a year or two while new general manager John Lynch continues to build the roster.
35. Jacksonville Jaguars-Dan Feeney, Guard, Indiana
The Jaguars fill the biggest hole on their roster. The Jaguars are committed to improving the running game in 2017, and it all starts up front. Feeney can come in and pave the way for the Jaguars immediately.
Once again, this isn’t a sexy draft for the Jaguars as they add two linemen. However, it would add quality depth to the defensive line, and a new starting guard. The running back class is very deep and can be addressed later in the draft, possibly with Texas running back D’onta Foreman, a poor man’s version of Leonard Fournette.
