Jaguars Podcast: Previewing the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine

In this week's episode of The JaguarReport Podcast, John and Gus breakdown what they will be looking for at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine.

The 2022 NFL season is over and the offseason is already in full swing. Next, the NFL Draft process is set to kick into gear as the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine is set to take place in just days. 

Considering the Jaguars are set to turn into a draft-and-develop team this offseason after back-to-back years of spending big money in free agency. With the Jaguars set to use this year's draft as a jumping point for the future, few combines in recent history have been as important to the franchise as this year's.

The Jaguars are set to pick No. 24 in the 2023 NFL Draft following the conclusion of their season, which ended with a 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Divisional Round. Jacksonville holds nine selections in the 2023 draft.

Typically, the Jaguars would pick No. 25 overall, but due to the Miami Dolphins having a forfeited first-round pick, the Jaguars pick goes up a selection. 

The Jaguars have picked in the top-10 in each of the last four drafts, selecting Travon Walker and Trevor Lawrence No. 1 overall, CJ Henderson No. 9, and Josh Allen No. 7.

Jacksonville has never picked No. 24 in a draft. The closest they came was picking No. 25 overall on two different occasions: taking safety Donovin Darius in 1998 and running back Travis Etienne in 2021.
