Vernon Hargreaves. 5. player. 52. <p>The Jacksonville Jaguars are a team on the rise. They’ve drafted well in recent years, especially on offense, and have started to generate some long awaited buzz. Blake Bortles has grown leaps and bounds from what he was in his rookie season, and having some excellent playmakers around him has helped immensely. Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns are two excellent receivers Bortles can grow with, while TJ Yeldon has provided a consistent running attack. If they can add some protection for Bortles through the draft and free agency, this core will become even better and be a threat for years to come.</p> <p>Now while the offense is bursting at the seams, the defense is crumbling. It’s clear the current ensemble that is manning the secondary is not equipped to handle divisional opponents such as Andrew Luck or future threats such as Marcus Mariota.</p> <p>Jacksonville jumps a defensive needy team to get a shutdown cornerback, Vernon Hargreaves III. A kid who grew up in Tampa and went to Florida, Hargreaves may come out as the best overall player in this draft. With terrific ball skills and decent speed, there’s no doubt he can play in this league.</p> <p>Previous Pick: Jalen Ramsey, DB</p>. Cornerback. Florida
