2020 NFL Draft: 20 Bold predictions for first round
By Dan Parzych
11. Jaguars take chance on Jeudy
Did the Jacksonville Jaguars make the right decision in moving on from Nick Foles after only one season to pave the way for Gardner Minshew II?
In a way, this whole situation seemed a bit unfair for Foles since the former Super Bowl MVP was injured right away last season in Week 1, and didn’t exactly have the best weapons to work with later in the year once he was healthy enough to return.
Even with all of the excitement surrounding Minshew, Jacksonville still needs to do a better job in building a better offense around their beloved quarterback, especially after the recent release of Marqise Lee.
D.J. Chark certainly took a major step in the right direction last season with an impressive sophomore campaign, but if the Jaguars really want to help Minshew, another wideout in the first round wouldn’t exactly be the worst idea around.
With some unexpected questions surrounding Jerry Jeudy all of a sudden due to knee issues, there has been some recent talk over whether the Alabama wideout could slip in the first round if some teams view him as too much of a risk.
Luckily for the Jaguars, they could always take the chance to see if Jeudy is still available at No. 20 if they choose to go in another direction at No. 9 since they are fortunate enough to have multiple picks in the first round thanks to the Jalen Ramsey trade with the Los Angeles Rams.
