FutureB-
The Jaguars fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. Some picks age like wine; Stephen Dix Jr. at pick No. 245 will need to, sitting 127 spots clear of his grade. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
On value alone, Pavia makes the weekend a net positive. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick58
Rnd2
Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe in the Round 2 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick74
Rnd3
Jalon Kilgore
They took Jalon Kilgore at par in Round 3, Pick 10, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90
Rnd3
Harold Perkins Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Harold Perkins Jr. at No. 90 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick91
Rnd3
Carson Beck
Carson Beck is a better player than pick No. 91 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick100
Rnd3
Evan Stewart
Evan Stewart at the 100th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick110
Rnd4
Chase Roberts
Value said wait; Chase Roberts in the 110th overall pick says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142
Rnd5
Lander Barton
Lander Barton at the 142nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick149
Rnd5
Xavier Scott
They talked themselves into Xavier Scott at pick 149, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick165
Rnd5
Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson in No. 165 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183
Rnd6
Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh in Round 6, Pick 7 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jack Velling
A big swing on Jack Velling at the Round 6 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Akheem Mesidor
They reached into another round for Akheem Mesidor, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick217
Rnd7
TJ Metcalf
TJ Metcalf in the 217th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
A real head-scratcher, Jason Henderson in slot 222 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
Circle this one: Diego Pavia at the 223rd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick230
Rnd7
Austin Siereveld
Austin Siereveld at the 230th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick239
Rnd7
Keaten Wade
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Keaten Wade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick243
Rnd7
Reid Carrico
Reid Carrico in slot 243 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245
Rnd7
Stephen Dix Jr.
Stephen Dix Jr. at Round 7, Pick 29 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
