Auburn. Derrick Brown. 12. player. 52. Pick Analysis. DL. Scouting Report

The Jacksonville Jaguars have essentially traded or released, well, everyone on their team over the last year.

Despite all of the departures, the Jaguars have made a couple of savvy moves in free agency, signing inside linebacker Joe Schobert away from the Cleveland Browns, a player who can be a threat on all three downs for them.

They also brought in former first-round pick Darqueze Dennard on a team-friendly three-year deal at the cornerback position, and one of the more underrated pass rushing defensive linemen in the league — Rodney Gunter — to help replace some of the depth they’ve lost up front.

This is truly a team that needs to rebuild and reload from the inside out on both sides of the ball, and Derrick Brown at pick number 12 overall is a tremendous value.

Brown’s explosiveness off the line is second to none in this draft class among interior defensive linemen and he was a dominant player over the past two years for Auburn.
