NFL Network evaluates Jaguars NFL draft needs for potential No 1 pick

Jacksonville came back into the possession of the after the defeat against the in week 11 and his crippling loss in week 12 to the further solidified the Jaguars at the top of the rankings (not a typo).

There are still seven weeks of NFL regular-season action left to determine which non-playoff teams select where.

But in the event the Jaguars hold the top spot, NFL Network analyst says on Monday broke down Jacksonville's biggest positional needs and analyzed arguably their biggest priority: improved protection for quarterback Trevor Lawrence.

Biggest needs: CB, S, WR, OT, DT

Opponents week 12: BYE

Remaining Strength of Schedule: .333 (32nd)

The Jaguars should look at offensive tackle prospects in the top half of the draft to protect Trevor Lawrence. Right tackle Anton Harrison and backup Javon Foster, a fourth-round pick this year, are the only true OTs under contract beyond this season, with Walker Little heading into free agency.

There are no NFL draft declarations pouring in from college football yet. But of the expected prospects, four currently have first-round grades on the : LSU left tackle Will Campbell, Texas left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. and right tackle Cameron Williams and Minnesota left tackle Aireontae Ersery.

The Jaguars will certainly be linked to two-way star Colorado. Cornerback and wide receiver Travis Hunter Jr., throughout the draft process as long as they retain the first pick. He is the consensus No. 1 pick in the draft pool.
