There was a lot of hope in Jacksonville when they drafted Blake Bortles third overall in 2014, and while there were ups and downs, it might be safe to say that the former AAC Offensive Player of the Year did not turn out to be the right fit for the Jaguars.

From the University of Michigan, Maurice Williams was taken with Jacksonville’s second round pick in 2001.  The Offensive Lineman was a starter as a rookie, and he went on to play mostly at Right Tackle for the Jaguars.  Williams went on to start 100 of his 105 Games as a pro, and he did well until his career faltered due to compounding injuries in 2008.  He was waived after 2009, and he tried to find a home with Denver but was unable to make the team.

A former Big East Defensive Player of the Year at Syracuse, Donovin Darius was a late First Round Pick by Jacksonville in 1998. 

A star lineman at the University of Miami, Leon Searcy played eight years in the National Football League, the first half with the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the second half with Jacksonville.
