With the following pick -- No. 114 -- the Jacksonville Jaguars drafted Oklahoma Sooners cornerback Aaron Colvin. The Sooners' standout is notable for having torn his ACL in Senior Bowl practices, and scouts wondered how the injury would affect his draft stock. Colvin was excluded from the NFL Combine due to the injury.
A number of defensive backs found a home early in Round 4. Four cornerbacks and one safety were taken, highlighted by Colvin and Florida Gators corner Jaylen Watkins, taken by the Philadelphia Eagles to open the fourth round. Watkins is the brother of No. 4 overall selection Sammy Watkins.
On the other side of the ball, a trio of receivers went off the board. Oklahoma's Jalen Saunders was drafted by the New York Jets, while the San Francisco 49ers selected Bruce Ellington of the South Carolina Gamecocks . Ellington was a two-way standout, starting at point guard for South Carolina's basketball team. The Jets added another receiver at pick No. 115, grabbing Shaquelle Evans of the UCLA Bruins .
