First pick, top prospect. Until we have a reason to doubt him, Lawrence looks like a star in the making. How will it work with Urban Meyer? No one knows. But Lawrence has just about everything you could hope for in a franchise QB. Even Tim Tebow can’t take away from the glitz of this pick.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Congrats to all who bet over 1.5 running backs in Round 1. The Clemson-to-Jacksonville pipeline continues with Lawrence at No. 1 and Etienne here. That’s a hell of a backfield now, with James Robinson handling the dirty work and Etienne as the weapon in space. With those receivers, a solid line and two quality backs, the Jaguars suddenly have some real offensive juice.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Campbell is a long corner with great athletic traits. He was roasted against Alabama but otherwise had promising tape. Even after taking C.J. Henderson in Round 1 a year ago and signing Shaquill Griffin in free agency, the Jags needed another corner.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Had the 6-foot-7 Little played more than 72 snaps over the past two seasons, he might have been a first-round pick. His athletic traits are exciting and he has excellent length in an OT class that is short on that. This is giant risk, but it could pay off if Little gets stronger and develops after missing most of the past two seasons to injury and opt-out.

Eric Edholm's Commentary
Cisco is a gambler with a serious nose for the ball (13 interceptions in 24 college games). He can be undisciplined and is still rehabbing a torn ACL from last fall. If he learns a little patience and play recognition, Cisco could be a very interesting addition to a revamped Jacksonville secondary.
