The Jacksonville Jaguars have officially announced the full coaching staff for the 2021-2022 season, including new passing game coordinator Brian Schottenheimer.
Schottenheimer has coached in the NFL in 21 of the past 24 years, including 12 years of playcalling experience, meaning the Jaguars have an extremely seasoned coach set to prepare the No. 1 overall pick for the NFL. But just what does his background suggest he can bring to the Jaguars?
Here’s a closer look at how Schottenheimer’s coordinated offenses have fared in terms of points per game, yards per play, Expected Points Added (EPA) per play, Pro Football Focus grade and Defense-adjusted Value Over Average (DVOA) year-to-year.
Word on the street is that this thing called the NFL Draft is still on for 2021, even if we don’t get the NFL Scouting Combine and some of the college all-star games like the East-West Shrine Bowl like we typically do. Given that news, I figured it would be wise for me to let you in on what I’m thinking about the 2021 NFL Draft and how all the action could unfold in just over two months.
Couple disclaimers that nobody will read: I haven’t scouted all of these guys close enough to have grades on them yet (some I have), so this is very much a mock of what I think could happen and what does seem to make sense given my knowledge of each team’s needs and prototypes at certain positions. Also, I try not to go too trade-heavy in the first mock draft of the year, so there is just one in this mock draft. More coming in my next one, I’m sure.
