The storyline of what the Jacksonville Jaguars will do at pick No. 33 has become more interesting than what the franchise plans to do with the first overall pick recently. For Jacksonville, the No. 1 pick is down to four players, according to general manager Trent Baalke. Most seem to think those four players are offensive linemen Ikem Ekwonu and Evan Neal, as well as Michigan edge-rusher Aidan Hutchinson and Georgia defensive lineman Travon Walker.
With their next pick, the Jags can go in a variety of different directions, though. They could draft an offensive lineman, a wide receiver, or a linebacker. There is a bevy of players the organization is likely considering at each position.
Jags general manager Trent Baalke and head coach Doug Pederson met with the media on Friday to preview the upcoming 2022 NFL draft next week. In the process, Baalke discussed how important the pick at 33 overall is for the franchise.
