Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jaguars cashed the board's mistake on Gray: B+.

The Jaguars ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

Gray falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. With linebacker and quarterback unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Every board in the league had Van Pran lower, and that gap is the story.

Good work on the whole, with linebacker the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
A tidy bit of business in the 35th overall pick, where Kamari Lassiter graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They liked T'Vondre Sweat enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 48. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick60 Rnd2 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at Round 2, Pick 28 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick71 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at No. 71 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick79 Rnd3 Maason Smith
Of all the spots to shop, they chose DT-EDGE. Maason Smith in pick 79 leaves linebacker and quarterback for later.
Pick91 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 91st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick96 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at the 96th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at Round 4, Pick 14 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick116 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They paid sticker price for Khyree Jackson in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
Cole Bishop at the 155th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner is a better player than slot 195 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick211 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaiah Williams. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick225 Rnd7 Joshua Gray
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Joshua Gray in No. 225, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick237 Rnd7 Cody Schrader
No edge and no loss on Cody Schrader in pick 237; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
