Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall D+
ValueF NeedB TradesC- FutureB
A weekend the Jaguars will want back. Grade: D+.

The Jaguars treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 165 on Shawn Murphy a full 255 spots early. It grades a D+, and the process earned it.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Moore. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Dante Dowdell
A big swing on Dante Dowdell at No. 57, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick100 Rnd3 PJ Williams
A wild overpay on PJ Williams in slot 100, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Isaiah Nwokobia
They reached a country mile for Isaiah Nwokobia at the Round 4 slot, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125 Rnd4 Dezz Ricks
Dezz Ricks at the 125th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick129 Rnd4 Makai Lemon
Taking Makai Lemon in pick 129 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick165 Rnd5 Shawn Murphy
Shawn Murphy at the 165th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick206 Rnd6 Dylan Lonergan
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dylan Lonergan well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jelani Thurman
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jelani Thurman this early at pick No. 236. The roster fit checks out.
Pick244 Rnd7 Dante Moore
Dante Moore at No. 244 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Zane Durant
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Zane Durant reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick250 Rnd7 Chris Johnson Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Chris Johnson Jr. in pick 250, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
