Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Jaguars: B-.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Jaguars would have aced it. Joe Milton III at pick 138 is 33 spots clear of where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the 36th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick40 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
They paid sticker price for Tyler Guyton in Round 2, Pick 8, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick48 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at pick 48 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick79 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
By-the-book stuff, Mike Sainristil at pick No. 79 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They took Zak Zinter at par in slot 96, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick115 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
A straight-up fair deal on Leonard Taylor III at the 115th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 James Williams
They reached a country mile for James Williams at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick138 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joe Milton III in pick 138, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick152 Rnd5 Cody Schrader
A real head-scratcher, Cody Schrader in No. 152 is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick195 Rnd6 Solomon Byrd
They talked themselves into Solomon Byrd at the 195th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick211 Rnd6 Josh Wallace
The board had cheaper options than Josh Wallace at Round 6, Pick 36, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick234 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
A reach for Steele Chambers in the 234th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
