On ESPN’s “First Take” Monday, featured commentators Stephen A. Smith and Max Kellerman discussed their expectations for former Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence and how high they should be in his first season in the NFL after he is presumably selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars with the No. 1 overall pick in this month’s draft.
When Smith looks at the situation Lawrence is entering into with the Jaguars – who lost 15 straight games in 2020 following a season-opening win over the Indianapolis Colts – he believes there is nowhere for Lawrence to go but up considering the team he is expected to play for, the AFC South division he will be playing in, the talent he will be playing with and the coach in Urban Meyer he will be playing for.
