You can bet on who the Jacksonville Jaguars pick in the 1st Round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Derrick Brown and Javon Kinlaw are among the top prospects for Jacksonville.
Three analysts projected Kinlaw (South Carolina) to the Jaguars at No. 9.
"He's a dominant player with the athleticism, power and body type to be a starter as a 3-4 end or 4-3 tackle," Matt Miller of the Bleacher Report wrote of Kinlaw.
Luke Easterling of USA Today projected Brown to the Jaguars at No. 9 overall.
"A rare athlete for his size, Brown is a dominant force who can wreck opposing offenses all by himself," Easterling said.
SI.com's Kevin Hanson: "There has been some turnover on the Jags defensive line as they have declined Marcell Dareus’s option and traded Calais Campbell this offseason. In addition, Yannick Ngakoue could be (hopes to be) moved as we approach the draft. Due to his blend of size, length, strength and quickness, Kinlaw has as much pass-rush upside as any interior defender in this year’s draft."
The Jaguars are slightly favored to select a defensive player (8/13) versus an offensive player (5/4).
