Jaguars,Myles Cole

The Jaguars have selected an edge rusher for the first time in 2024.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have put a bow on their 2024 NFL Draft class, selecting Texas Tech DE Myles Cole with the No. 236 pick.Cole spent the first four years of his career at Louisiana-Monroe, appearing in 34 games and starting 12 games while recording 3.5 tackles for loss and 1.5 sacks.

Cole transferred to Texas Tech in 2022, appearing in 25 games and starting 13. In that span, he recorded nine tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, and one pass deflection. Cole recorded the longest arms and wingspan at the Senior Bowl and the NFL Scouting Combine with 36 7/8-inch arms. “Well, when you can’t run the football and later in the year, you can’t stop the run, that’s a problem in the National Football League. We’ve always prided ourselves on being able to do that; run the football, stop the run," Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke said at the start of the offseason.

"For whatever reason, we weren’t able to do that. I think there’s a lot of moving parts to that. I don’t think it’s just player related, I don’t think it’s just scheme related. We’ve got to get bigger, we’ve got to get stronger, we’ve got to get more physical in the trenches. If you want to compete for championships, you have to do that. I think we’ve got some good pieces in there, we have some good young players in there, but we have to get better.”2nd round, No.
