Harrison's Pad-Play Pushes Jaguars Toward Left-Tackle Role

Two padded practices in Jacksonville highlighted Anton Harrison’s strong showing at left tackle, signaling a rising price tag if he locks in the spot; on defense, Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker continued to disrupt, while rookies Josh Cameron and CJ Williams flashed as playmakers. Jarrian Jones also made impact plays in coverage, but the offense endured turnover issues (three on Tuesday, plus a fumbled snap Monday) and Wyatt Milum struggled in pass protection as he adjusts to new responsibilities along the line.

Brian Thomas Jr. Lights Up Jaguars Day 5 Camp With Deep Catch

Day 5 of Jacksonville's training camp featured the first padded practice, and Brian Thomas Jr. stole the show with a deep bomb from Trevor Lawrence over Montaric Brown, signaling a growing connection in wet conditions. Lawrence and Thomas have started to click on downfield throws, while Thomas has been turnover-free through camp. Chris Rodriguez Jr. added punch in live runs, and Anton Harrison dominated at left tackle in one-on-ones. The session also saw hiccups for the passing game with Lawrence-to-Parker Washington on a couple downfield routes in the rain, plus pass-rush bursts from Ruke Orhorhoro and continued activity from Ventrell Miller and Zach Durfee. Wyatt Milum faced a tough matchup against Travon Walker as the team builds its depth with pads on.

Jaguars secure Trevor Lawrence's protection with Anton Harrison pick.

The Jacksonville Jaguars selected offensive tackle Anton Harrison from Oklahoma in the 2023 NFL Draft, which surprised many who expected the team to pick a defensive back. The pick was not a reactive or panic decision due to Cam Robinson's suspension, but rather a strategic move to bolster the offensive line. The Jaguars also gained extra picks by trading down twice in the first round, which could be used to target a defensive back in the second round.

"Assessing the Jacksonville Jaguars' Draft Strategy: A Look Back and Ahead"

In the Pride of Detroit Community Mock Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars selected Anton Harrison, an offensive tackle out of Oklahoma, with the 24th overall pick. The Jaguars are in need of an influx of talent at the position after losing Jawan Taylor to Kansas City, and Harrison brings talent to the offensive line and potentially locks in as a foundational piece of a group tasked with keeping Trevor Lawrence clean in the pocket for years to come.

Bengals' 2023 draft predictions and team updates.

The Cincinnati Bengals are set to make their pick at number 28 in the 2023 NFL Draft, and media outlets have projected potential selections including tight ends Dalton Kincaid and Michael Mayer, offensive tackle Anton Harrison, and cornerback Deonte Banks. Kincaid is the top-ranked pass-catching tight end in the class, while Harrison could replace Jonah Williams if he is traded. Banks is a physical cornerback who could pair well with Cam Taylor-Britt, and Mayer is a versatile all-around tight end who could be a bargain pick for the Bengals.

Steelers' Draft Strategy: Building a Strong and Versatile Team for the Future.

In Mel Kiper Jr.'s latest two-round mock draft, he has the Pittsburgh Steelers selecting Boston College wide receiver Zay Flowers at No. 17 overall, followed by Oklahoma offensive tackle Anton Harrison at No. 32 overall and Kansas State cornerback Julius Brents at No. 49 overall. Flowers is Kiper's top-ranked receiver and played with Mike Tomlin's son at Boston College. Harrison could compete with Dan Moore Jr. and Chukwuma Okorafor for a starting spot, while Brents has the potential to learn from veteran Patrick Peterson and defend against the run. While this scenario may not be entirely realistic, it would address some of the Steelers' biggest needs.

Chicago Bears Scout Tips Off Potential Draft Sleeper

Former Chicago Bears scout Greg Gabriel believes that GM Ryan Poles may trade down from the #9 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft and target Oklahoma's Anton Harrison, an athletic and nasty left tackle, later in the first round. This move would bring back extra picks and build up draft capital for the Bears to use in the second round, which Gabriel believes is a strong point in this year's draft. However, it ultimately comes down to Poles' confidence in Harrison's potential as a good player.
