Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Jaguars.

The Jaguars went off the board in a big way for Eric Gentry, 53 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. That Walley pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
Princely Umanmielen in Round 1, Pick 17 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick49 Rnd2 Bryson Nesbit
No edge and no loss on Bryson Nesbit in pick 49; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jacobee Bryant
Jacobee Bryant in the 89th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick113 Rnd4 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Andrew Mukuba
Nothing to complain about; Andrew Mukuba went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick153 Rnd5 Reuben Fatheree II
A straight-up fair deal on Reuben Fatheree II at the 153rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
A conviction pick on Miles Frazier at pick 177 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Justin Walley
Justin Walley is a better player than No. 185 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick209 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They reached into another round for Eric Gentry, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
