The Jacksonville Jaguars are still widely expected to take Michigan edge rusher, Aidan Hutchinson, with the first overall pick in the NFL draft that’s now almost two weeks away.
But NFL Network’s Peter Schrager said that other coaching staffs and front offices believe Jacksonville will take Georgia pass rusher, Travon Walker, over Hutchinson.
Schrager said they believe this based on Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke’s draft history with the San Francisco 49ers where he took players with incredible physical traits over the best performers in college. He pointed out the 2011 draft where the 49ers took Aldon Smith with the seventh overall pick over the likes of J.J. Watt, Robert Quinn, Ryan Kerrigan, and Cameron Jordan.
