Jacksonville Jaguars 7-round 2021 NFL mock draft: Lawrence locked up
Round 4, 97th Overall
Over the offseason, the Jacksonville Jaguars declined Cam Robinson’s fifth-year option, making him a free agent at season’s end. His up and down play has left his future in Jacksonville in serious doubt and while I wouldn’t be surprised if the Jags bring him back on a “prove it” type of deal, they still need to add competition at tackle.
BYU’s Brady Christensen might be off the board at this point but if he happens to slip to this pick in the fourth, the Jacksonville Jaguars should be all over it. Christensen is a highly experienced player with ideal size for the position and he has put together a terrific junior season for the Cougs.
This would be an A+ pick for Jacksonville.
Round 4, 117th Overall
With D.J. Hayden’s contract coming to an end after this season, the Jacksonville Jaguars could be in the market for a replacement at the nickel position this offseason. The team did draft Josiah Scott in the fourth round of last year’s draft but he has yet to prove that he can step into the role. Adding competition to the unit is a must.
Washington’s Elijah Molden is an instinctual, scrappy slot corner prospect that brings attitude and smarts to the position, which the Jaguars are lacking at the moment. Molden has the skill to potentially step into a starting role right away.
Round 5, 129th Overall
The Jacksonville Jaguars are 30th in the NFL in sacks this season and while Josh Allen’s absence is obviously a factor, the depth behind him needs an upgrade. K’Lavon Chaisson has experienced a lot of growing pains in his rookie campaign and the only pass-rusher that has really made an impact is Dawuane Smoot, who will be a free agent after this year.
If the team doesn’t look to improve the position early in the draft, they should look at Kingsley Enagbare in the later rounds. Enagbare is an under the radar prospect that I have fallen in love with of late. He is twitchy off the snap and does well to convert speed to power moves. He really flashes off the edge and would be a welcomed addition in Jacksonville.
