Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Jaguars a B.

The Jaguars treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 116 on Jalyx Hunt a full 36 spots early. The bottom line is a respectable B.

The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Morgan at pick No. 36, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
No drama and no debate, Xavier Legette went about where he belonged in the 40th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick48 Rnd2 Renardo Green
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Renardo Green. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick96 Rnd3 Javon Baker
A reasonable price with a little left over, Javon Baker in No. 96. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
They took Mekhi Wingo at par in the 100th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick114 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Davis at pick 114 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jalyx Hunt
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jalyx Hunt this early at the Round 4 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick153 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Nehemiah Pritchett at pick 153. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick212 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at Round 6, Pick 37 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick236 Rnd7 KT Leveston
KT Leveston at slot 236 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
