The Jaguars approach their second NFL Draft with HC Liam Coen and GM James Gladstone running the show. John Shipley of SI<\/a> cites one anonymous NFC staff member who thinks Jacksonville is \u201ctough to figure out,\u201d given they\u2019ve refrained from hosting an excessive amount of top-30 visits.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThey do the Rams thing. Pro days, visits, now the combine. They are tough to figure out,\u201d the staff member said.\u00a0<\/p>\n One anonymous scout also believes the Jaguars are doing well to keep their plans ambiguous.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cNot taking visits leaves other teams in the dark, but we are all doing things to try to throw you off the scent,\u201d the scout said. \u201cThey do their own thing. If it works, it works.\u201d<\/p>\n Jacksonville does not have a first-round pick in this year\u2019s draft. One former AFC front office member could see them trading down.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cI do not think they pick No. 56. Not at all,\u201d the former front office member said. \u201cThey will trade up or down. I bet down.\u201d<\/p>\n Texans GM Nick Caserio referenced LB Henry To\u2019oTo\u2019o<\/a>, OL Jarrett Patterson<\/a> and WR Xavier Hutchinson<\/a> as examples of Day 3 NFL draft success stories: \u201cThat\u2019s the way a league works. Those Saturday discussions, it\u2019s the same thought process and mindset. It\u2019s not well, we\u2019re sitting there on Saturday in a fifth round. \u2018The guy\u2019s character is horrible. Don\u2019t worry about that\u2019 Draft in the fifth round, or drafting a third round, it\u2019s still the same\u2019 This goes back to what I said earlier. We\u2019re drafting people. So if you get the people right? When you look at I would say some of those people that we\u2019ve drafted in the late rounds. There\u2019s some of our top, I would say, borderline elite mplayers, Henry, Hutch, Patterson. There\u2019s a reason those players have maybe stuck around beyond maybe where they were drafted again, happens all the time. We\u2019re not the only team that goes through this. I mean, let\u2019s go look at Seattle. Drake Thomas<\/a>, who wasn\u2019t drafted, was starting linebacker. He\u2019s got a contract extension because he plays his hair on fire, and he represents the 12 the way they want play. So it happens all over the league.\u201d\u00a0(Aaron Wilson<\/a>) Miami EDGE Reuben Bain Jr. enters the NFL Draft with some character concerns after he was involved in a car crash back in 2024 that resulted in the death of the passenger, Destiny Betts. Titans GM Mike Borgonzi said they\u2019ve spoken to Bain about his driving issues and feel confident about how he learned from the incident, per Terry McCormick.\u00a0<\/a> Looking for the latest NFL Insider News & Rumors?<\/p>\n Be sure to follow NFL Trade Rumors<\/a> on X.com<\/a>\u00a0and FACEBOOK<\/a>\u00a0for breaking NFL News and Rumors for all 32 teams!<\/p>\n
\nCaserio on QB C.J. Stroud<\/a> and picking up his fifth-year option: \u201cI don\u2019t really think that affects his future. He\u2019s our quarterback. We\u2019ve said that from the beginning. DeMeco and I have both said it. I think that was really more of a procedural thing. I don\u2019t want to say it was a no-brainer, but it was kind of a no-brainer, so we\u2019re glad he\u2019s here. Again, it\u2019s more of a part of the process. So, we\u2019re excited about his offseason. I think he\u2019s had a good approach, had a good attitude here. I think he\u2019s put a lot of work in from, I\u2019d say, March and April. I\u2019m so excited to have him around here in the spring and I\u2019m excited to keep moving forward.\u201d (James Palmer<\/a>)
\nIn the upcoming draft, Caserio said the only position they won\u2019t consider is quarterback. (Wilson<\/a>)
\nCaserio said WR Tank Dell<\/a> is day-to-day and thinks they will better understand his timeline as the spring progresses. He also mentioned Dell\u2019s availability won\u2019t impact their draft decisions: \u201cIf there\u2019s a receiver that we like that we want to add to the team and we\u2019re going to take them independent [of Tank]\u2026 The competition will sort itself out.\u201d (DJ Bien-Aime<\/a>)<\/p>\n
\nAs for Ohio State LB Arvel Reese, Borgonzi called him one of the most \u201cexplosive\u201d players he\u2019s ever seen and thinks he has potential as a pass rusher: \u201cYou look at the physical tools, and for Arvel, he\u2019s one of the more explosive players that I\u2019ve ever seen. In terms of his burst, his ability to close, and his explosion on contact, he has all the tools to do it\u2026 You certainly see the flashes there of him being a dominant pass rusher.\u201d\u00a0(Turron Davenport<\/a>)
\nRegarding their plans at No. 4 overall, Borgonzi said there is a \u201ccluster of players\u201d that they really like and views Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love as a \u201cspecial\u201d prospect: \u201cThere\u2019s a cluster of players up there that we really like. In particular, Jeremiyah (Love), I think he\u2019s a special player. \u2026 It\u2019s also a group of edge guys up there that are really good, too. We\u2019ll have some really good options up there at 4.\u201d\u00a0(Jeremy Bergman<\/a>)<\/p>\n
