Jacksonville Jaguars: NFL Draft

C.J. (stands for Chris Jr.) Henderson is a Miami native who decided to go north to join the Gators after initially committing to the Hurricanes. Florida defensive coordinator Todd Grantham called Henderson the best cornerback he'd ever coached after just one season. Henderson was a second-team All-SEC pick in that season, starting all 13 games as a sophomore (38 tackles, five tackles for loss, three sacks, two interceptions, seven pass breakups and two forced fumbles). He was a first-team All-SEC selection in 2019 as he led his squad with 11 pass breakups (also making 33 tackles, three for loss) despite playing in just nine regular-season games due to an ankle injury. Henderson also skipped the team's bowl game to stay healthy and prepare for the draft. He excelled in his first year with the Gators, as well, garnering Freshman All-SEC notice with five starts in 11 contests (22 tackles, four pass breakups) and tying for second in the nation with touchdown returns on two of his four interceptions.

K'Lavon (pronounced KAY-luh-vahn) Chaisson followed a friend to an LSU football camp and wound up receiving a scholarship offer despite not yet playing a down of varsity ball. Two years later, the Houston North Shore High School product was a four-star prospect and top-50 overall recruit. He started three of 12 games played as a true freshman in 2017, posting 27 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, two sacks and two pass breakups off the edge. Big things were expected for Chaisson in 2018, but he tore his ACL in the season opener; he had five tackles and a sack in his only game of the year. He met those expectations in his redshirt sophomore season, helping the Tigers take the national crown by garnering first-team All-SEC honors with a team-high 13.5 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks among his 60 total stops in 13 starts.

Laviska Shenault (pronounced lu-visk-uh shuh-nault) became one of the nation's top receivers in 2018, and was named Colorado's MVP even though he only played in nine games (eight starts). He was a first-team All-Pac-12 selection after leading the FBS with 9.6 receptions per game and ranking fourth in the country with 112.3 receiving yards per contest (86-1,011-11.8, six TDs). He also scored on five of 17 rushes on the year, making him the only player in the country to have five rushing and receiving touchdowns. Shenault was a second-team all-conference selection in 2019 after seeing a reduction in his production (56-764-13.6, four TDs receiving; 23-161-7.0, two TDs rushing) in 11 games (eight starts). He flashed as a true freshman in 2017, leading the Buffaloes with 24 yards per catch (7-168 in 12 games as a reserve). Shenault helped DeSoto High School (Texas) win its first-ever football state title his senior year (46-825, nine TDs). His father, Laviska Sr., died in July 2009 from injuries suffered when he was hit by a car on the side of a highway after he had exited his vehicle to switch from the passenger seat to the driver's seat. Laviska Jr.'s mother, Annie, survived West Nile Virus though it took her almost a year to feel fully healthy again.

Hamilton was an Associated Press All-State pick at Pickerington Central High School in Ohio his senior year. After his redshirt season with the Buckeyes, he became a valued reserve lineman in 2016 (10 tackles, 2.5 for loss in 13 games) and 2017 (12 tackles, 4.5 for loss in 13 games). Hamilton started three contests on a deep Ohio State line his junior year, making 16 tackles, 3.5 for loss. Finally getting a shot to start as a senior, Hamilton was named third-team All-Big Ten for his efforts (28 tackles, 10.5 for loss, six sacks in 14 starts). His younger brother, Ty, committed to Ohio State as a Class of 2020 recruit.

Bartch grew up in Oregon but family ties to the Twin Cities led him to sign with the annually successful Division III Johnnies. He came to Minnesota as a tight end and played the position for two years; he played in one game in 2016 and eight contests in 2017 (four receptions, 43 yards, 10.8 per, one touchdown). Before the 2018 season, however, Bartch moved to left tackle. He started all 13 games in his first year at the position, earning second-team All-Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference honors. Bartch continued growing into his frame during his senior year, earning the eyes of MIAC coaches to garner first-team all-league and Offensive Lineman of the Year honors in 14 starts at left tackle.

Scott excelled as an honorable mention All-Big Ten junior corner for the Spartans, leading his squad with three interceptions and eight pass breakups in 13 starts. He overcame a knee injury that cost him the first eight games of the 2018 season to earn the RedBox Bowl Defensive MVP Award (three tackles, one for loss, four pass breakups) in the Spartans' 7-6 loss to Oregon. Scott started only five games on the year but still intercepted two passes and broke up seven others (along with making 13 tackles). He was an honorable mention all-conference pick as a true freshman, starting all 12 games and breaking up 12 passes (30 stops, two interceptions). The Ohio native's three brothers won national titles at perennial Division III football powerhouse Mount Union.

Quarterman was one of the top linebacker recruits in the country, earning the Florida Times-Union Defensive Player of the Year award as a senior at Oakleaf High School. He enrolled at The U a semester early, which helped him become the first freshman starter at middle linebacker since first-round NFL draft pick Dan Morgan in 1998. He was a third-team All-ACC pick with 84 tackles, 10 for loss, and 3.5 sacks in 13 games. Quarterman was a second-team all-conference pick after starting all 13 games in 2017 (83 tackles, seven for loss, 2.5 sacks, five pass breakups) and a first-team selection as a junior (82 tackles, 14 for loss, six sacks, one interception). He was a first-team pick in 2019, as well, leading his team on and off the field (107 tackles, 15.5 for loss, one sack, five pass breakups in 13 games).

Thomas started all 13 games at strong safety for the Tigers the past two seasons. As a senior he collected 74 stops, 5.5 for loss, and broke up a pass. In 2018, Thomas racked up 74 tackles (two for loss), intercepted two passes (returning one for a score), broke up three passes, and forced two fumbles. The former second-team all-state football player from Montgomery contributed as a true freshman in 2016 (16 tackles, 1.5 for loss, three pass breakups, one start in 11 games), even intercepting two passes against Alabama in the Iron Bowl. Thomas started one of 14 games played in 2017, posting 35 stops, one interception, and three pass breakups.

Collin and his brother, Kirk, wanted to play at UT to follow in their father's footsteps. Johnnie Johnson was an All-American defensive back for the Longhorns, a 10-year NFL veteran, and a member of the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame. Collin's the one whose physical gifts have stuck out to NFL scouts, even though he never earned all-conference honors during his collegiate career. Johnson played in all 12 games (one start) as a true freshman despite missing most of his senior year of high school at Valley Christian High in California with an injury. He tied for the team lead with three touchdowns, catching 28 passes in total for 315 yards (11.3 per). Johnson started nine of 13 games played in 2017, leading the squad with 754 yards on his 54 receptions (14.0), scoring twice. He and quarterback Sam Ehlinger were a strong duo in 2018, with Johnson collecting 68 receptions for 985 yards and seven scores in 13 games (12 starts). He set a Big 12 Championship Game record with 177 yards on nine catches and a score against Oklahoma. Johnson was limited to seven starts as a senior, however, due to a hamstring injury (38 receptions, 559 yards, 14.7 average, three touchdowns).

Playing for a small-town high school football team that ran the Wing-T, Luton (pronounced loo-ten) flew under the recruiting radar. Washington State passed on Luton to sign the late Tyler Hilinski, so the University of Idaho landed the tall, strong-armed quarterback. He could not find the field very often with the Vandals, though, playing behind Matt Linehan (the son of former NFL coach Scott). Luton played in eight games as a reserve in 2015 (51 of 80, 63.8 completion percentage, 403 yards, one touchdown, four interceptions) and then transferred to Ventura Community College. He set school records (single-season and career) with 3,551 passing yards and 40 touchdowns at VCC. The top-50 junior college recruit signed with the Beavers for the 2017 season, and he started the first four games (83 of 135, 61.5 completion percentage, 853 yards, four touchdowns, four interceptions). Luton was carted off the field against his home-state Cougars, however, due to a spine injury. He was able to return to start the final five games of the 2018 season (140 of 224, 62.5 completion percentage, 1,660 yards, 10 touchdowns, four interceptions in eight games overall). Luton started 11 games as a senior for OSU, earning honorable mention All-Pac-12 notice by completing 62 percent of his passes (222 of 358) for 2,714 yards and 28 touchdowns against three interceptions.

Claybrooks was a wideout and running back at Nashville's McGavock High School, and was a receiver and return specialist at Fort Scott Community College in 2016 and Coahoma Community College in 2017 before heading to Memphis. Tigers coaches moved him to the secondary right away, and he played in 12 games as a reserve (12 tackles, one interception). Claybrooks missed the first five games of his senior season with a foot injury but suited up for the final nine at cornerback (42 tackles, one interception, two pass breakups) and contributed as a kick returner (11-338-30.7, one TD). Claybrooks joked on Twitter last fall that his son, Christopher, was offered a scholarship by then-Memphis head coach Mike Norvell after he checked out the youngster's skills.
