1. Jacksonville Jaguars – Travon Walker (EDGE/Georgia) I can’t believe I am writing this. Walker wasn’t even considered a first-round prospect until the combine. Adrian Hutchinson seems like the obvious choice, but Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke compared Walker to Aldon Smith, who he drafted in San Francisco and Walker emerged as the odds-on favorite…

While on the press junket for “The Batman” lead actor Robert Pattison and director Matt Reeves often compared the titular character to Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. Reeves had Cobain in mind as he wrote the first act, shifting the perception of the billionaire playboy that we have seen across several films over the past 30-plus…

1. Jacksonville Jaguars – Evan Neal (OT/Alabama) Everyone is putting Adrian Hutchinson here, and he should be the top player taken this spring, but I think it’s far from set in stone. Jacksonville has spent a lot of capital in recent years on pass rushers, taking Josh Allen and K’Lavon Chaisson in the opening round of…

Draft order is based on current betting odds from FanDuel. 1. Houston Texans – Sam Howell (QB/North Carolina) DeShaun Watson wants out of Houston and the Texans want him to stay. With both sides digging their heels in, someone has to budge and I think it will eventually be the Texans, especially if they land…

1. Jacksonville Jaguars – Trevor Lawrence (QB/Clemson) At this point, there’s really no need to get into the details. Lawrence is going to be the pick barring some sort of apocalyptic event between now and draft time. 2. New York Jets – Zach Wilson (QB/BYU) Like Jacksonville with the top pick, there really isn’t a…

1. Jacksonville Jaguars – Trevor Lawrence (QB/Clemson) The first overall pick is usually the least surprising of the draft. Jacksonville has been taking calls for Gardner Minshew and there is no doubt that the team is in need of a franchise signal-caller. Lawrence has been the most intriguing NFL prospect since Andrew Luck. 2. New…
