Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Jaguars a B.

The Jaguars put a flag in the ground for DeMonte Capehart, 90 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Rakestraw Jr..

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 33rd pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A conviction pick on T'Vondre Sweat at pick 48 that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
The board fumbled Ennis Rakestraw Jr. all the way to the 57th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dominick Puni. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at pick No. 102 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick115 Rnd4 James Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, James Williams well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart in pick No. 120 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
A reach for Jaylen Wright in the 152nd overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick165 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They took Kitan Oladapo at par in No. 165, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick180 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the 180th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick195 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the Round 6 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jared Wiley in Round 6, Pick 22, miles early. It fills a real need, too.
Pick211 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at slot 211 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234 Rnd7 DeMonte Capehart
They reached into another round for DeMonte Capehart, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
