May 7, 2021 With the 2021 NFL Draft just a week old, some in the draft industry are already looking at 2022 and beyond. What are experts saying about the Jaguars thus far? There is always a too early time to look forward to the NFL Draft. It is the most exciting and impactful three-day event on the NFLs calendar, but teams and fans alike are turning their eyes toward the 2021 NFL season.  But scouts and draft analysts have the luxury of being able to do both. As a result, there is already a...

Saints add Huggins to depleted interior defensive line - 4 minutes ago METAIRIE, La. (AP) — The New Orleans Saints have signed defensive tackle Albert Huggins in a move that addresses a position where the club lost two prominent regulars this offseason. The 6-foot-2, 305-pound Huggins is a third-year pro out of Clemson who has played in five NFL games — four with Philadelphia as a rookie in 2019 and one with Detroit last season. New Orleans is trying to rebuild depth on its in...

But thats a debate for another day.  Theres no doubt he left his mark during both his stints with the Crimson Tide, and last year was behind the offense that captured just about every major award. The offensive coordinator even had a wide receiver win the Heisman Trophy.  Ove...

We heard rumblings about 24 hours before the first round that the Cardinals were likely to take Collins, though he was someone expected to go in the mid-to-late 20’s. Could they have traded back and landed him? Maybe. But his versatility combined with that of Isaiah Simmons and Budda Baker make this a tough defense to play against. Moore makes so much sense in the second round, as we still don’t know if Larry Fitzgerald will return. No matter what, he’s a perfect fit to play the slot in t...

The 2021 NFL Draft is, at last, over. The most important draft class in Jacksonville Jaguars history, the Jaguars brain trust of head coach Urban Meyer and general manager Trent Baalke took it upon themselves to add nine new players to a depleted Jaguars roster.  What does each of the picks mean for 2021? What was the teams reasoning for each pick? We take a look below through all nine new Jaguars, from Trevor Lawrence to Jalen Camp. Round 1, Pick No. 1: Clemson QB Trevor Lawrence Why they ma...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — A day after landing Clemson’s most dynamic offensive playmakers, the Jacksonville Jaguars turned their attention to the other side of the ball. The Jaguars selected Georgia cornerback Tyson Campbell with the first pick in the second round of the NFL draft Friday, adding a three-year starter to a position group that Jacksonville has invested significantly in over the past year. Grabbing Campbell so early in the draft also raises questions about the team’s confidenc...

JACKSONVILLE – Least important thing first: With the 2021 NFL Draft now officially two days in and a day from conclusion, the app form for O-Zone questions is still not working correctly. So much for TrevorMania changing everything. We therefore ask that you continue submitting question through the website form or via Joehser@gmail.com. Now, on to the most important thing – i.e., the fan angst that inevitably accompanies every NFL teams draft every year, particularly when teams commit the ...

With the Jaguars set to kick off todays Day 3 with pick No. 106, which players make sense as potential fits?

Longhorns Miss On First-Round NFL Draft Selection Once Again Texas, for the sixth straight season, goes without a first-round selection in the NFL Draft. Author: Apr 30, 2021 The Texas Longhorns’ drought of NFL Drafts without a first-round pick continued on Thursday, as Texas was shut out for the sixth straight year. The last Longhorns player to be taken in the first round was defensive lineman Malcom Brown in 2015. He was taken No. 32 overall by the New England Patriots. Brown, the former B...

My take: This pick raised eyebrows since Turner wasn’t widely graded as a Round 1 prospect by many analysts -- and since cornerback, linebacker, wide receiver and even quarterback were seen as more glaring needs for the Saints amid reports that they would aggressively try to trade up on Thursday night. But New Orleans definitely needed more defensive line depth after parting ways with DE Trey Hendrickson and DTs Malcom Brown and Sheldon Rankins this offseason. And it should come as no surpris...
