Playin Nice: Big Cat Country

1. Last year in the first round the Jags took Kentucky’s Josh Allen. This year they took Chaisson to, I assume, pair opposite of Allen. What about Chaisson stands out to you?

At first I was somewhat surprised by the pick, as I expected the Jaguars to go after bigger needs such as wide receiver, defensive tackle or offensive line with the No. 20 overall pick (after selecting cornerback C.J. Henderson with the No. 9 pick). However, it did not take very long for me to get excited about Chaisson, not long at all.

The first thing that caught my attention about Chaisson is his freak athleticism: speed, power, length, explosiveness — he seems to check all of the boxes there.
