Jaguars strengthen defensive tackle position in 2027 NFL mock draft

In a preseason 2027 NFL mock draft by Jordan Reid of ESPN, the Jacksonville Jaguars are projected to select Oregon defensive tackle A'Mauri Washington with the 17th pick. Washington, who stands 6-3 and weighs 330 pounds, had a prominent role last season with the Ducks, recording 22 pressures and two sacks. As current starters Arik Armstead, DaVon Hamilton, and Matt Dickerson will become free agents, the Jaguars address a critical need in their defensive line for the upcoming season. The team's prior draft included defensive tackle Albert Regis in the top 100 picks, highlighting a commitment to fortifying this position group for future success.
