FutureB
The Jaguars turned the phones into found money: B. The Jaguars put a flag in the ground for Jason Henderson, 143 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.
The McNeil-Warren pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick65
Rnd3
D'Angelo Ponds
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 65 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick81
Rnd3
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at pick No. 81 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick88
Rnd3
Max Klare
A slide stopped in No. 88, with Max Klare worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89
Rnd3
Nicholas Singleton
A conviction pick on Nicholas Singleton at the 89th pick that the board grades a round light. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick92
Rnd3
Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at the 92nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100
Rnd3
Genesis Smith
A clean, defensible pick in slot 100 with a little surplus value in Genesis Smith. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick118
Rnd4
Jack Endries
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jack Endries in the 118th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124
Rnd4
Mikail Kamara
Mikail Kamara at pick No. 124 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick158
Rnd5
Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at No. 158 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick183
Rnd6
Patrick Payton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Patrick Payton this early at slot 183. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick198
Rnd6
Keyshaun Elliott
They paid a round early for Keyshaun Elliott in pick 198, more than the board wanted. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick222
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
The board had cheaper options than Diego Pavia at the 222nd overall pick, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick223
Rnd7
Eli Heidenreich
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Eli Heidenreich. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick224
Rnd7
Trebor Pena
Trebor Pena at the Round 7 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick232
Rnd7
Logan Taylor
A wild overpay on Logan Taylor in pick 232, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick237
Rnd7
Kalil Alexander
They reached into another round for Kalil Alexander, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick239
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in No. 239 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at pick No. 241 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick243
Rnd7
Tyler Onyedim
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Onyedim in the 243rd overall pick, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick244
Rnd7
Deven Eastern
A big swing on Deven Eastern at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245
Rnd7
Aidan Hubbard
They reached a country mile for Aidan Hubbard at the 245th pick, and the board is aghast. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick246
Rnd7
Owen Heinecke
No edge and no loss on Owen Heinecke in Round 7, Pick 30; it is a wash and a sensible one. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick247
Rnd7
Joe Fagnano
They talked themselves into Joe Fagnano at No. 247, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jalil Farooq
Jalil Farooq in the 252nd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick256
Rnd7
Reid Carrico
A real head-scratcher, Reid Carrico in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick257
Rnd7
Jack Velling
Value said wait; Jack Velling in the 257th overall pick says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
