After grabbing two Atlantic Coast Conference stars in Trevor Lawrence and Travis Etienne on Day 1, the Jacksonville Jaguars went into Day 2 hoping to add more impact players with the pair. Looking at their selections, it seemed that Urban Meyer, Trent Baalke, and co. emphasize athleticism and traits. Their selections on Friday, when it was all said and done, included Georgia cornerback Tyson Campbell, Stanford tackle Walker Little, and Illinois safety Andre Cisco.
Then came Day 3 on Saturday. The front office added some depth players with starter potential in Southern California defensive tackle Jay Tufele, Alabama Birmingham edge rusher Jordan Smith, Ohio State tight end Luke Farrell, and Georgia Tech receiver Jalen Camp.
It was quite an interesting haul, to say the least, as it appears Meyer is confident in his staff’s ability to help these players with strong athletic traits translate. If they are successful, they will have a strong contending team on their hands and one that will easily surpass last season’s 1-15 record.
However, we’d like to hear from you all on the topic. How would you grade the Jags’ 2021 draft class overall?
