FutureB
The Jaguars won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B. The rest of the league had time to spare on Jason Henderson; the Jaguars did not wait, grabbing him 132 spots ahead at slot 252.
The Hurst steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. The Jaguars paired the rookies with proven help, Ernest Jones leading the way.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick71
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
No edge and no loss on Jacob Rodriguez in pick No. 71; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick83
Rnd3
Antonio Williams
Antonio Williams is a better player than Round 3, Pick 19 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jake Golday
Somehow Jake Golday was still sitting there in the 88th overall pick, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick89
Rnd3
Brian Parker II
The board had cheaper options than Brian Parker II at pick 89, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick92
Rnd3
Emmett Johnson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emmett Johnson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick95
Rnd3
Skyler Bell
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Skyler Bell worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100
Rnd3
Treydan Stukes
Good price on Treydan Stukes in Round 3, Pick 36, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124
Rnd4
Drew Allar
Drew Allar in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129
Rnd4
Davison Igbinosun
A reasonable price with a little left over, Davison Igbinosun in the 129th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick203
Rnd6
Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at the 203rd overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick220
Rnd7
Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander at No. 220 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick223
Rnd7
Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at slot 223 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224
Rnd7
Eli Heidenreich
They jumped the gun on Eli Heidenreich, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick228
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at pick No. 228 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick232
Rnd7
Keyshaun Elliott
You do not let a linebacker like Keyshaun Elliott reach the 232nd overall pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick245
Rnd7
Logan Taylor
Logan Taylor in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
They went early on Nolan Rucci in slot 246, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick251
Rnd7
Trebor Pena
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Trebor Pena at pick 251 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jason Henderson. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256
Rnd7
Aidan Hubbard
A wild overpay on Aidan Hubbard in pick No. 256, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick257
Rnd7
Joe Fagnano
A big swing on Joe Fagnano at the 257th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
