Jaguars Wire final 7-round mock: Jags secondary gets bolstered early

Round four, selection No. 137: Shane Lemieux, OG, Oregon – The Jags don’t sound like they will be looking for starters on their offensive line this week, but they certainly could afford some depth. Shane Lemieux would give the Jags a player who could push A.J. Cann to be a starter in 2020. However, if the veteran wins the battle, Lemieux certainly should be ready to step in next year as he’d bring a tenacity that Doug Marrone will like.

Round five, selection No. 157: Hakeem Adenji, OT, Kansas – We took Adenji in our last mock (check it out here). He’s not quite as tall or big (6-foot-4, 304-pounds) as the Jags like in their offensive tackles, but landing him in the fifth-round makes him a solid value pick.

Round five, selection No. 165: Josiah Deguara, TE, Cincinnati – Jags coach Doug Marrone said the team isn’t done adding help at tight end this offseason. That said, it looks like they need an H-back type weapon who can block and serve as a pass-catcher. Josiah Deguara can be just that for them and he’s a player they’ve met with this offseason.

Round six, selection No. 189: Isaiah Hodgkins, WR, Oregon State – The Jags shouldn’t stop at just adding one receiver. Dede Westbrook, Chris Conley, and Keelan Cole are all set to be free agents next season and the Jags must prepare to lose at least one or two of them. Landing the 6-foot-4, 210-pound Isaiah Hodgkins gives them a developmental receiver who plays smart football and has soft hands.

Round six, selection No. 206: Harrison Hand, CB, Temple – Just like at receiver, the Jags should double-dip at corner because behind Tre Herndon and D.J. Haden, the group looks iffy. Harrison Hand would be a good selection in the sixth round as he showcases the competitiveness and discipline fans like to see on tape.

Round seven, selection No. 223: Bravvion Roy, DT, Baylor – Bravvion Roy was a standout during the practices at the Shrine Game and was arguably the most mentioned player of the process. According to Tony Pauline of Pro Football Network, Roy collapsed the pocket and could not be stopped all that week for the most part. At 6-foot-1, 333 pounds, he could potentially rotate at nose tackle as Al Woods is the Jags’ oldest player (33).
