On the subject of the Jags taking Alulu at 10, I dunno if any of you ever listen to a guy named Tim Brando during the weekday morning hours on 1560 ? He starts at 10 AM and runs for a couple hours.
Anyway, he thinks there's a link between this pick and the other most dramatic pick in the Draft, the Tebow pick by Denver in the 20s. Brando thinks the Jags are soon to be history in Jacksonville (very possible under any circunstances), and one of the only ways they could have saved themselves is by taking the enormously popular local guy Tebow to sell tickets and rejuvinate the hometown fans. This theory is well know of course.
But his theory goes on and he thinks the owner really wants the franchise to move to LA, and by taking somebody else so early it would avoid speculation about why he didn't do the obvious and trade back to get the Cal DT while getting additional picks, but if he did that it would put him dangerously close to the area where several teams think Tebows a value, as borne out by Denver.
Honestly I'm not making this up, but some of these radio guys make stuff up all the time so that's probably what's going on here. FWIW.
