There is reaching, and then there is Logan Fano at No. 203. The Jaguars jumped the board by 55 and dared it to prove them wrong. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

The Kilgore pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They went 8 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.24 · Pick 56 · Derrick Moore · DE-EDGE · rank 62
A straight-up fair deal on Derrick Moore at No. 56, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.17 · Pick 81 · Brian Parker II · OT · rank 105
Brian Parker II at slot 81 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.24 · Pick 88 · Ted Hurst · WR · rank 89
By-the-book stuff, Ted Hurst at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.36 · Pick 100 · Zakee Wheatley · S · rank 86
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Zakee Wheatley in pick No. 100. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.24 · Pick 124 · Jalon Kilgore · CB · rank 100
Somehow Jalon Kilgore was still sitting there in the 124th pick, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.24 · Pick 164 · Marlin Klein · TE · rank 157
Fair-plus on Marlin Klein, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.26 · Pick 166 · Demond Claiborne · RB · rank 161
Demond Claiborne at Round 5, Pick 26 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.22 · Pick 203 · Logan Fano · DE-EDGE · rank 258
A real head-scratcher, Logan Fano in the 203rd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R7.17 · Pick 233 · Aiden Fisher · LB · rank 227
They did well to land Aiden Fisher in the 233rd pick, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.24 · Pick 240 · Bryce Foster · C · rank 251
Bryce Foster in pick 240 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.29 · Pick 245 · Nick Barrett · DL · rank 254
The board had cheaper options than Nick Barrett at pick No. 245, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
