So now there's this...

[Mr. Scot]

Will someone make the Jaguars an offer they can't refuse?

The most intriguing potential suitor for 2021 is the Panthers. Carolina holds the eighth overall pick. If they package that pick with several other selections in an effort to keep Lawrence in close to Clemson, will that be enough to get the Jaguars to pull the trigger?

No, I don't buy that the Panthers will do this. It's pure speculation, but so was Newton's "bold prediction" and people went apesh-t over that.

What we'd have to give up just to get to number two or number three would probably make me cringe. Can't imagine what it would take to get to number one.

[Moo Daeng]

Yes it's speculation. The words potential and if make that clear. 

[Wanderlai]

Far better chance to pry Watson out of Houston. Zero chance of getting the Jags to give up #1. 

[Captain Morgan]

[WarHeel]

In a world where the amount of capital to get Watson equals that of obtaining the #1 pick this year, I wonder which direction this fanbase would lean.

Watson vs Sunshine 

Who is everyone taking?

[LinvilleGorge]

I'm just not sold on Lawrence being this super prospect. Yeah, he checks all the boxes but the vast majority of the time he's ever taken a field his team was head and shoulders better than the competition.

I'll take the proven MVP caliber QB. Yes, even over the rookie contract.

Yet people will run with it as though it was inevitable.

Watson is established, but Lawrence is younger and significantly cheaper on a rookie contract.

It would depend heavily on your evaluation of Lawrence. If you think he could genuinely be as good as Watson, it becomes a real debate.

No harm in calling and offering something crazy.  The Jags won't take it, but still worth the call.

It has crossed my mind that with how hard they are going after a sure fire starting qb that the number pick would be on the table.  But the cost would be mind boggling.

But you are sold on Zach Wilson being this super prospect ? Make it make sense Linville . 

[PantherKyle]

I wish. But nope. The downside for them is just immense. Imagine explaining to that fan base the picks were worth missing on Lawrence.

[Ornias]

Can Tepper just buy the team? Might be cheaper.
