    While the consensus seems to be that the Jaguars made a smart decision trading their first- and second-round picks — No. 16 and No. 49 — to the Redskins in exchange for the No. 10 pick which turned out to be QB Blaine Gabbert, Pro Football Weekly is hearing head coach Jack Del Rio could be in the minority. With pressure to win now at an all-time high for Del Rio, and Gabbert expected to take time to develop behind starter David Garrard, the embattled head coach likely would have benefited more from help on defense with those two picks.
