The Jacksonville Jaguars have had a lot said about their draft plans over the course of the last month and tonight we got to see just what they decided to do with the No. 3 overall pick. For starters, they ended up keeping the pick as there was talk of the Jags maybe trading back but they didn’t find anything they liked in terms of offers.

Instead, the Jaguars stood pat and ended up drafting quarterback Blake Bortles with the No. 3 overall pick.

The pick was a bit of a shock as the first quarterback was not expected to be Bortles, but the Jaguars have taken a chance that he’ll be their franchise guy.
