Josh Allen

I'm not as high on Allen as some, as his play-recognition can use some work. He'll often have his mind set on where he's going rather than taking what the lineman gives him, and while that will work at times, it'll make the bad plays even worse. He does play with tremendous passion and doesn't give up on a play. He's going to be best suited as an outside linebacker in a 3-4, as offensive tackles seemed to have their way with him once they got their hands on him in the run-game.

Josh Allen selected No. 7 by Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars have selected former Kentucky OLB Josh Allen with the seventh pick in the 2019 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

Allen is one of the best edge rushers in this year’s draft class, and he was widely considered to be a top-5 talent. The Jaguars have more pressing needs (specifically on the offensive line and in the receiving game), but Allen was the best available pick and a steal at No. 7.
