Jacksonville Jaguars pick All-Pro cornerback in PFF's 2011 NFL redraft
Jacksonville Jaguars pick All-Pro cornerback in PFF's 2011 NFL redraft In PFF's 2011 NFL redraft, the Jacksonville Jaguars pick an All-Pro cornerback.
With the benefit of hindsight and thier grading system, Pro Football Focus went back and redrafted the first round of the 2011 NFL draft. So, who did the Jacksonville Jaguars come away with this time?
After an 8-8 season in 2010, the Jaguars originally held the 16th overall pick in 2011, but would move up to pick No. 10 in a trade with Washington in order to take quarterback Blaine Gabbert.
However, in this redraft, the Jaguars stayed put at pick 16 and selected Kansas cornerback Chris Harris Jr., who originally went undrafted.
"In this redraft, Jacksonville scoops up the best undrafted player from the 2011 class in Chris Harris Jr," wrote PFF. "He garnered an elite 93.5 PFF overall grade across his 12 seasons, which included four trips to the Pro Bowl."
Harris would end up playing 12 NFL seasons and was a four-time Pro Bowler and one-time All-Pro. He was also named a member of the All-2010s team.
Harris appeared in 172 games, which included 145 starts during his time with Denver, the LA Chargers, and the New Orleans Saints. He came away with 22 interceptions, 97 pass deflections, and seven forced fumbles.
Gabbert, meanwhile, would play only three seasons with the Jaguars. Over the span, he started 27 games and completed just 53% of his passes with 24 interceptions to 22 touchdowns while averaging just 5.1 yards per attempt.
Gabbert was traded to San Francisco during the 2014 offseason and was an NFL backup through the 2023 season, which included winning a Super Bowl in Tampa Bay behind Tom Brady and in Kansas City behind Patrick Mahomes.

Slimmer Travis Kelce prepares for 13th NFL season
In the days after the Super Bowl, it seemed as if Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce would be calling it a career after 12 NFL seasons. But he quickly decided to come back. When he does, he'll have a different look. Via Andrew Battifarano of the New York Post, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said during a Saturday SportsCenter appearance that Kelce has been telling people he has lost some weight in the offseason. 'He's told people close to him that he's lost about 25 pounds this offseason,' Fowler said. 'Played a little bit heavier in 2024. . . . He vowed to change it, and he has.' For older players, it's not uncommon to lose weight — it's perceived as a way to perhaps regain some of the speed that Father Time is starting to strip away. There's a balance to strike. Body weight becomes part of the body's natural armor. If Kelce is too thin, he could get banged around a little more than he has in the past. Regardless, the change shows he wasn't happy with how things went in 2024. And if 2025 will be his last season, he's committed to applying a different approach. In 2024, Kelce had 823 receiving yards. That was the lowest since his rookie year, when he appeared in one game and had zero targets. Three total touchdowns was also the lowest total, since he became a regular contributor to the Kansas City offense.

A video from Washington Commanders practice has stirred up rumors about Deebo Samuel's alleged weight gain and declined foot speed.
A video from Washington Commanders practice has stirred up rumors about Deebo Samuel's alleged weight gain and declined foot speed. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. With nothing better for fans to do, social media has turned into a feeding ground to speculate and overanalyze every glimpse they can get from inside NFL minicamps. Advertisement How is he playing? Is he fast? Does he look healthy? If he going to get traded? All of these thoughts, and more, are up for debate ... either as legit discussions or simply agendas pushed in search of clicks. This week's buzz about such videos comes from Washington Commanders practice, where wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was seen running a deep route and catching a pass at the goal line. What looks like a routine play has been met with a storm of harsh criticism about Samuel's alleged weight gain, claiming that it looks like he's put on some pounds and has lost a step of speed. "... no comment ... because I don't want to be mean," one fan said about the clip. Advertisement "Deebo Samuel is a Popeyes biscuit away from being a TE," another commented. "Extra-wide receiver*," one added. The dual-threat receiver was acquired in a trade from the San Francisco 49ers this offseason, hoping to form a dynamic duo with All-Pro Terry McLaurin for star quarterback Jayden Daniels. Since his breakout season in 2021, Samuel has seen a decline numbers wise, but he is still widely considered an elite player because of his unique pass catching and rushing abilities at the position. His weight has been a topic of conversation in the past, as there was an alarming report about his physical conditioning shortly after he requested a trade and was dealt to Washington in March. Advertisement The Athletic's Matt Barrows confirmed a report that Samuel had been 20 pounds over weight during the 2024 season. 'I'm not going to say the number, but I asked what was Deebo's high point weight wise last season and it meshes with what you said a couple of weeks ago," Barrows told Tim Kawakami on The TK Show. "It got really high and there may have been reasons for that. Not able to work out because of pneumonia. Not able to work out because of injuries. But that's a concern. I think the 49ers had that concern the minute he showed up in Santa Clara in 2019 and it never fully went away.' Samuel barked back on social media clearing up his weight, saying "225 to be exact ... Can't wait till this season start. Fresh start..." Advertisement So, does he still look heavy and slow this offseason? Maybe ... but there are things to consider before fans jump off the deep end and say he's completely washed. This is a minicamp drill ... players are not supposed to be running full speed, and you certainly can't expect that from a veteran player like Samuel who is older and doesn't as much to prove anymore. Also, Deebo has never been the skinniest guy to begin with. His pads may make his torso look thinner during the season, so seeing him in just a jersey for the first time this year could have caught fans off guard. Part of the reason Samuel excels in rushing is his combination and strength and speed, so it's worth remembering that this body type isn't completely out of the ordinary. Advertisement Fans could be reaching for the tinfoil hats a bit too prematurely here. Let's let the rest of Washington's offseason program play out first. From here on, we can now expect to see regular Deebo updates to either contradict or defend this criticism.
