Jaguars selected Syracuse S Andre Cisco with the No. 65 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
Cisco (6'0/209), a three-year starter at Syracuse, snagged 13 interceptions throughout his career, which is made more impressive by the fact he was only able to play two games in 2020 due to an ACL injury. He was voted as the only true freshman to the Walter Camp All-America team in 2018, then earned himself second-team All-ACC honors in 2019. On film, Cisco is a dream for Cover 3 teams, which bodes well for Jags DC Joe Cullen. He can hold up when playing a deep centerfielder role, showing off some ability to maintain proper spacing and trigger on the QB, even if he can be too overzealous at times. Moreover, Cisco can roll down to play hook/curl assignments as a pseudo-box player because of how quickly he reacts to and drives on plays in front of him. Long speed is a question mark for Cisco, which means playing man coverage from the slot is going to be tough, but he offers enough elsewhere that he can still be a decent starter along the lines of Ha Ha Clinton-Dix.
