There are few greater blessings than the No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick when you’re a team starting from scratch. Arguably the league’s most valuable asset, if a quarterback’s on the table — especially a special player — you can turn your franchise around on the snap of their beautiful throwing motion.

Few quarterbacks possess Lawrence’s rare combination of poise, arm strength and athletic ability. With Lawrence at his best, who is now in his second year as a pro, the Jaguars can not only be a fixture in the AFC but also be a mainstay on the sport’s brightest stages for his entire career.
