    now this is funny.

    they traded ALL THE WAY up to eight last year to get a defensive end that had 3.5 sacks this year when they could have stayed put and gotten a guy like brian orakpo or michael johnson this year.

    Who's the slowest wide receiver in the draft? That's who they will take.

    Actually some decent picks. I mean, at least they have all had some significant playing time. Not that I want any of the picks from 2003-2008, but they have all contributed in some way.

    the jags need more than a WR. the need offensive linemen, defensive linemen, a CB and a WR.
