JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — This year's NFL Draft class is not short of talent when it comes to the offensive line. It is a position the Jacksonville Jaguars must address to keep Trevor Lawrence upright.
At 6’8, 340 pounds Georgia Offensive Tackle Amarius Mims looks like he was made in a lab with a towering frame, rocked-up build, big hands and long arms. Mims moves easy out of his stance and redirect with the fluidity of someone 25 pounds lighter. He's balanced and smooth in his 45-degree and vertical sets to reach his spot on time, expand his set points and mirror rushers through the top of the Q-B's drop. Mims delivers firm, powerful strikes with grip strength and length to keep rushers at his fingertips once latched. Gains quick control on down blocks and strains to sustain, steer and pin defenders to create lanes behind him.
The Jaguars own 8 picks in the 2024 NFL Draft. You can watch every round of the NFL Draft on ABC 25.
