Jacksonville Jaguars trade for QB Carson Wentz in this 5-round mock draft
The Jaguars add depth in the fourth and fifth round.
Even though the Jaguars don’t have a third and a fourth-round selection due to their trade for Carson Wentz, they have another fourth-round pick, the one they got besides the first-rounders when they traded Jalen Ramsey. Against Tennessee Titans, wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. had the second-most carries after running back James Robinson.
They need to find a true backup for the Illinois State standout and Oklahoma running back Kennedy Brooks is the man. In the last two years, he’s racked up 274 carries for 2067 yards and 18 touchdowns.
The Jaguars also need to add depth and fortify their linebacker corps. Myles Jack has been a stud and Joe Shobert, who joined the team this past offseason, has become a key cog on defense. However, they need depth, and Monty Rice can provide it.
The Bulldogs linebacker has registered 27 solo tackles, 19 assists, one sack, and two forced fumbles in 2020, and has the potential to become a three-down linebacker in the NFL.
This Jacksonville team also needs to add depth to their offensive line and they can do it with the fifth-round selection they acquired after trading safety Ronnie Harrison to the Cleveland Browns earlier this year.
Cade Mays plays right tackle but has the skill set but looks better suited to move to guard in the NFL. Down the road, he could become a swim tackle for the Jaguars.
