A four-year producer at Florida with 24.5 tackles for loss (including 14.5 sacks), Umanmielen transferred to Ole Miss in the offseason in hopes that a change of scenery could result in a breakout campaign. Umanmielen (6-foot-5, 255 pounds) has the size and explosiveness scouts want to develop, but he needs to show greater consistency.
With Tyson Campbell entering the final year of his contract and limited depth on the outside, there are a lot of questions about the long-term future at cornerback in Jacksonville. After a disappointing and injury-riddled 2022, Burke bounced back and returned to form as a junior last season. He can play in press man or off coverage, with the read-and-react skills to fit in any scheme. Burke had nine pass breakups in 2023, and if he puts up more good tape in 2024, he has first-round potential.
The Jaguars haven't had a shutdown corner since they traded Jalen Ramsey to the Rams. Morrison is a former four-star recruit with premium athleticism and elite ball skills. He had more forced incompletions (three) than receptions allowed (two) against Marvin Harrison Jr. in two games vs. the Buckeyes the last two seasons.
Burke turned down a likely spot in the top 50 of the 2024 class for one more year in Columbus. He can read and drive in the quick game or turn and stay attached to receivers vertically.
Davis is a ballhawk with freakish length who would create an excellent cornerback combo with Tyson Campbell. Davis earned an excellent 85.9 coverage grade in 2023, breaking up 12 passes in the process. He could be the next Tariq Woolen.
If Kelvin Banks isn't the first offensive tackle off the board, that's likely because Will Campbell jumped him. Campbell is massive (6-foot-6, 325 pounds) and might be the best run blocker in the class. He played left tackle at LSU but could play either tackle spot in the NFL.
Trent Baalke certainly has a type when seeking out players for his front seven, as the Jaguars GM consistently gravitates toward supersized, hyperathletic defenders. Williams certainly fits the bill at 6-5 and 265 pounds, and he could showcase his pass-rushing ability as he transitions to more of a stand-up role this season.
