The Jacksonville Jaguars weren’t quite expecting LSU edge rusher/outside linebacker K’Lavon Chaisson to be available at pick No. 20 overall. However, he was and the Jaguars didn’t hesitate to call his name with the team’s second pick in the first round.
There is more to the story here, though.
Jaguars general manager and head coach Doug Marrone were ecstatic about getting a versatile defensive player such as Chaisson that late in the draft. In fact, had Florida cornerback C.J. Henderson not been available for the No. 9 overall pick, Jacksonville’s brass was actually ready to pick Chaisson.
