Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jaguars, and a B to prove it.

The Jaguars spent real capital to be 49 picks early on Jayson Jones, and the board is going to hold them to it.

Coleman falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 24th pick they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
You do not let a cornerback like Terrion Arnold reach No. 48 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick56 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Steal is underselling it; Keon Coleman at the 56th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Darius Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Robinson in the Round 3 slot, miles early. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick96 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They paid sticker price for Dominick Puni in slot 96, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 James Williams
They jumped the gun on James Williams, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124 Rnd4 Javon Foster
By-the-book stuff, Javon Foster at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
A big swing on Jaylen Harrell at the 155th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick174 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo is a better player than pick 174 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick195 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in No. 195, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick211 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
Value said wait; Matthew Jones in Round 6, Pick 36 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jayson Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jayson Jones this early at slot 237. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
