Jaguars trade away pick Michael Bennett was scheduled to announce from London
Mike DiNovo / USA TODAY Sports
The Jacksonville Jaguars entered the 2016 NFL Draft planning to announce a pick from London for a second consecutive year.
Defensive tackle Michael Bennett was even flown overseas to join one lucky fan in making the pick, but it wasn't long into the second day of the draft when Jacksonville traded the pick away.
HAHAHAHAHA jacksonville flew me to London to announce the 146 pick. They just traded it away. Thanks for the flight! Lol

Though the deal certainly changes plans in London, Bennett conceded that he and the fan would likely be moved to announcing a later pick.
@carlolewis I'm sure we'll announce a 5th round pick or something
