C.J. Henderson Heads To Jaguars With Ninth Overall Pick
5 years agoThe Jacksonville Jaguars selected Florida cornerback C.J. Henderson with the ninth overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. Henderson was first-team All-SEC last year despite dealing with an ankle injury early on. He's going to be asked to shut down top receivers at the next level, but he'll need to improve his tackling to become one of the best young cornerbacks in the NFL. His forte is coverage ability. The Jaguars traded away both Jalen Ramsey and A.J. Bouye, so this pick makes perfect sense for a secondary that needs help. Henderson needs to be more consistent at the catch-point, but he can play in man or zone coverage for Jacksonville as their new No. 1 corner.
