Jacksonville Jaguars' Mock Draft: B/R Community Top 100 and 7-Round Results

Much like children on Christmas morning, the 2015 NFL draft has had the Jacksonville Jaguars and NFL communities excited and restless. Everyone wants to see what unfolds on draft day, but there is still a little time before NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell walks out on the stage to announce the first pick.

So, the excellent writers of B/R have come together to offer some food for thought with a top 100 pick community draft and updated mock drafts. It doesn't compare to the real thing, but hopefully this mock draft and the community top 100 can provoke some thoughts and discussion.

I represented the Jaguars, and I did my best to take the best players when they were available, or at least try to emulate what the Jaguars might do. (Yes, there's a LEO taken in the first three rounds, no surprises here.)

The Jaguars have a lot of options coming into the draft on Wednesday, and with a QB race and incredible depth when it comes to pass-rushers and wide receivers, there could be some serious fireworks. 

Bringing the best possible players to Duval County is the goal of general manager Dave Caldwell, and so far, he's done a pretty good job. His Super Bowl is in a few short days, and like the players, he's going to have to perform at the top level.

Whether that means taking the smart choice, the risky gamble or trading out remains to be seen. But the one thing that is guaranteed is that the excitement and anticipation won't end until the draft is wrapped up and done.

With the intro out of the way, let's look at the B/R community top 100 and my seven-round mock draft.

No. 3 - Dante Fowler Jr, DE, Florida

Well, with options like Leonard Williams, Amari Cooper, Randy Gregory, Dante Fowler and Vic Beasley on the board, I couldn't go with anyone besides Fowler. No one plays a true LEO as good as he does in this draft (save for Beasley), and I feel that Fowler would be the best fit.

The main reason I picked Fowler was because of his incredible tenacity and how natural he is in the LEO position. Williams is an extremely strong pass-rusher, but as talented as he is, he's not primed for the LEO spot is.

As for Gregory and Beasley, the decision got much tougher. All three are great pass-rushers with all the right qualities, but Fowler stood out because he's just as good as Beasley and Gregory, but it's apparent that he can improve.

His errors, such as his occasional spurts of shaky handwork are scratches that can be buffed out. He has no major flaws, and all of the one he does have are little technical errors that, with the right coaching and training, he can rid himself of very quickly.

There were multiple pass-rushers that I would be happy with if the Jaguars take them on Wednesday. Fowler's separating factor is that he has already shown the prowess to find the quarterback consistently, but he can get even better.

No. 36 - Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, Oklahoma

After looking at all the players taken, I had a couple major decisions to make. I could either take my choice of running back between Ameer Abdullah, Jay Ajayi and Tevin Coleman, or choose between wide receivers Phillip Dorsett or Dorial Green-Beckham.

In the end, I selected Green-Beckham due to the fact that no one available had as much talent to offer than him. At 6'5" and 237 pounds with a 4.49 40-yard dash, Green-Beckham is one of the most imposing athletes in the draft.

The major concern of Green-Beckham is questions of his character, and deservedly so. Multiple off-the-field issues at Missouri led him to being kicked off the team, leading him to transfer to Oklahoma, where he had to redshirt.

This absent 2014 is one of the reasons why I think Green-Beckham has come a long way from his days in Columbia, Missouri. He remained clean the entire year, continued training and practicing, and while he didn't get to play, I think his year in Norman was a rehab of sorts, plus he'd be joining an organization experienced with these kind of situations.

Green-Beckham has the qualities and athleticism of a guy like Kelvin Benjamin, and the potential for more. If his 883 yards receiving and 12 touchdowns in 2013 is any evidence, Green-Beckham could be a top target and a red-zone dominator.

At the 36th overall pick, I couldn't pass on an incredible, top-10 talent like Green-Beckham.

 *First pick of Round 4.

No. 67 - Jeremy Langford, RB, Michigan State

When I selected Green-Beckham in the second, I passed on the best running back besides Melvin Gordon and Todd Gurley in Jay Ajayi. I hoped he would he slipped to the third round, but the Carolina Panthers recognized the talent I do and took him.

However, the very talented Langford was available at 67th overall, and I quickly selected him. Langford isn't Gurley or Gordon, but I do think he has a lot to offer and could be a direct competitor for the starting job with Denard Robinson.

Langford had 2944 yards and 40 touchdowns in his two years as a starter with the Spartans, some of the most impressive numbers of the class. Langford is a power back with an apparent nose for the end zone, shown by his 40 touchdowns (22 in 2014, 18 in 2013).

Langford isn't the fastest back, but for 6'0" and 208 pounds, his 4.42 40-yard dash time at the combine is pretty quick. His ability to find the hole, be it inside or outside, and burst through and slip by defenders was the deciding factor in the end for me. 

Langford isn't perfect, but his vision and athleticism are really good foundation for building a durable, long-term option for the Jaguars.

Fourth Round

No. 103 - James Sample, SS, Louisville

James Sample quietly worked and produced for Louisville last season while Gerod Holliman brought down an NCAA-record 14 interceptions. Sample is the better all-around safety, and while Holliman may have had an insane season, Sample is poised for the better career.

It's not like Sample's numbers were anywhere close to bad last season. Sample tallied 74 tackles, four interceptions and eight passes defended, a very impressive and strong season from beginning to end. 

Sample's main issue is his lack of playing time. Sample was a starter in 2014, but had never started a game for Louisville or Washington before transferring. However, Sample took the opportunity and made the most of it in 2014.

Sample is an incredible talent with a lot to offer the Jaguars as a strong safety this season, but has the potential to do so much more. Sample's only major flaw is his lack of experience, and as he matures and learns the aspects of the game that only come with experience, he could be a real contender for the starting job.

Sample isn't an immediate starter, but he's got a lot of talent and ability that could blossom if he can get reps with the Jaguars. 

Fifth Round

No. 139 - Leterrius Walton, DT, Central Michigan

In the fifth round, I've got the Jaguars getting a DT to learn and grow behind veterans Sen'Derrick Marks, Jared Odrick, and Roy Miller in Leterrius Walton. The Central Michigan Chippewa is not necessarily the most well known option, but he's definitely a worthy one.

At 6'5", 319 pounds Walton is one of the biggest DTs in the draft. His sheer size isn't just that, either. In high school Walton played three sports and has maintained his shape in college as well, impressive for a guy as big as Walton.

His football numbers were impressive as well. In 31 starts, Walton totaled 99 tackles, 5.5 sacks and 14 tackles for losses. The numbers are by no means staggering, but his amount of experience and consistency throughout college is a nice attribute coming into the NFL. 

Walton has improved throughout his college career and looks like a guy who could continue to grow in the NFL. He has a lot of work to do to reach the standard of NFL starters, but his quick improvement at Central Michigan seems to show that he can continue to get better. 

Walton is athletic phenomenon and despite playing at a low-level school and a lack of polish, Walton is a guy who could learn and improve a lot with the Jaguars excellent defensive line.

Sixth Round

David J. Phillip/Associated Press

No. 180 - Jeremiah Poutasi, T/G, Utah

Jeremiah Poutasi is 6'5", 322 pounds and is one of the most versatile blockers available on the third day of the draft. Poutasi was a starter for Utah the past two years, and is now ready to take his talents to the NFL.

Poutasi was initially a right tackle for the Utes, but his two years starting came at left tackle instead. Poutasi's enormous size made him a difficult blocker to deal with, and allowed him leeway to develop his technical skills over the past two years.

The major flaw of Poutasi is his speed. A lot of edge-rushers are too quick for him on the left side, and while he could do better on the right side, his best position is probably neither tackle spot, but at guard. 

He's developed his technical skills to match his incredible body in college, and if he shifted over to guard, he'd have to time to develop some more and prepare for a role as a guard. Poutasi may not be a legitimate competitor for a starting job for a year or two, but if he gets time, he's got the talent and size to be successful.

Poutasi has a lot of potential and variety in his skill set, but I think he'd do best at guard. Considering the Jaguars have three guards on roster, Poutasi could be a depth option and could learn a lot from veteran Zane Beadles and up-and-comer Brandon Linder.

Poutasi would be an investment and a risk, but the Jaguars need a bit more depth at guard and Poutasi could satisfy that need as well as preparing and developing for a starting role in a couple years.

Seventh Round

No. 220 - Tony Washington, OLB, Oregon

We've come to the last pick in the draft, and in the seventh round, I went with Tony Washington from the Oregon Ducks. Washington has been a key player for the Ducks the past two years, and could be a valuable late-rounder.

Washington's most impressive attributes are his nose for the quarterback and his versatility as a linebacker. Washington has played many roles, outside and inside, and has consistently found the quarterback for the Ducks, totaling 12.5 sacks in the past two years.

Washington's 6'4", 247-pound frame is ideal for a linebacker, and that's the main reason he's able to play various roles as a linebacker. He's at his best pursuing the quarterback, and that's where the Jaguars could make the most of him.

I doubt Washington could ever be a definite starter, but he could be a situational guy. In a similar way that Dekoda Watson was brought in for various packages, Washington would be a great pass-rusher for various packages from multiple positions.

Washington's size and versatility will be the reason he makes in the NFL. At the very least, Washington could be a valuable special teams guy and could be used for specific packages as well. Make every pick count.
