Doug Pederson, Jaguars select Travon Walker with No. 1 overall pick in 2022 draft

Doug Pederson is on the board as the head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars, selecting former Georgia star defensive end, Travon Walker.

The Jaguars were selecting at the top of the draft for the second consecutive year after taking quarterback Trevor Lawrence in 2021, and the franchise picked Walker over Michigan edge rusher, Aidan Hutchinson.

Walker started vaulting into top-10 discussions after his impressive workout at the NFL Scouting Combine, with the only knock on him being his lack of experience as a true edge defender.
