Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jaguars let Clark fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. De'Corian Clark had no business being available in the 237th overall pick, and the Jaguars did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

They will need Van Pran to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will answer for taking edge rusher early while linebacker, quarterback and other spots went begging.

A whole weekend of picks and linebacker is somehow still a want.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
No drama and no debate, Chop Robinson went about where he belonged in pick 36. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid a round early for T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick62 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
A wild overpay on Sedrick Van Pran in the 62nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick79 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Mahogany. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in pick No. 96 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ainias Smith
A reach for Ainias Smith in Round 3, Pick 37; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Darius Robinson adds an edge rusher and leaves linebacker, quarterback and other spots untouched.
Pick114 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at No. 114 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart in slot 116 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at pick No. 155 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick195 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A reasonable price with a little left over, Christian Jones in pick 195. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brevyn Spann-Ford
No edge and no loss on Brevyn Spann-Ford in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick237 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
The board fumbled De'Corian Clark all the way to No. 237, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
