FutureB-
The Jaguars fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Jaguars bet big and early on Stephen Dix Jr., 129 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
Getting Pavia where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick61
Rnd2
Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt in No. 61 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick74
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
Nice patience on Daylen Everette, who had no business lasting to the 74th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90
Rnd3
Michael Taaffe
Value with a capital V on Michael Taaffe in pick No. 90, a genuine coup. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick91
Rnd3
Evan Stewart
Value said wait; Evan Stewart in the Round 3 slot says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100
Rnd3
Austin Romaine
Austin Romaine in the 100th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110
Rnd4
Bryce Boettcher
They talked themselves into Bryce Boettcher at Round 4, Pick 8, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson slipping to No. 116 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117
Rnd4
Jaydn Ott
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaydn Ott at the 117th overall pick is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick168
Rnd5
John Mateer
They will replay John Mateer at Round 5, Pick 30 for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jack Velling
They reached into another round for Jack Velling, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick194
Rnd6
Fernando Carmona
Fernando Carmona at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick195
Rnd6
Taylen Green
Steal is underselling it; Taylen Green at the 195th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick198
Rnd6
Khalil Barnes
Taking Khalil Barnes in pick 198 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick223
Rnd7
TJ Metcalf
They went early on TJ Metcalf in pick No. 223, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick229
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jason Henderson well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick230
Rnd7
Reid Carrico
Reid Carrico in the 230th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick239
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
You do not let a quarterback like Diego Pavia reach the 239th overall pick and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick242
Rnd7
Marquis Johnson
They barely believed it either: Marquis Johnson still on the board at pick 242. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick243
Rnd7
Keaten Wade
Keaten Wade at Round 7, Pick 27 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick244
Rnd7
Stephen Dix Jr.
A wild overpay on Stephen Dix Jr. in slot 244, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245
Rnd7
J.C. Davis
Somehow J.C. Davis was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246
Rnd7
London Humphreys
The board had London Humphreys higher than No. 246, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248
Rnd7
Walker Parks
Walker Parks at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
