Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke and coach Doug Pederson told the media last Friday that they are down to four players who are under consideration for the No. 1 overall pick. Those four players are likely Michigan edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson, Georgia edge rusher Travon Walker, North Carolina State Ikem Ekwonu, and Alabama offensive tackle Evan Neal.
Jaguars Wire has already made cases for and against taking Georgia’s Travon Walker and Michigan’s Aidan Hutchinson earlier this week. We’re back to continue this on Thursday, but this time we are examining the pros and cons of Ekwonu having his name called first. Let’s get started.
The former Wolfpack offensive tackle is a mauler and recorded an insane 67 pancake blocks last season, according to ESPN. Some draft scouts consider Ekwonu the best offensive lineman in this year’s class.
