Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Jaguars: B.

The Sedrick Van Pran pick is the one that will follow the Jaguars into the fall. They took him 31 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

It is not that Robinson is a bad player; it is that the Jaguars had louder needs to answer first. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 29 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Need was not the driver here.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the 48th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick59 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran in slot 59 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in Round 3, Pick 9 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in pick No. 79, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
No drama and no debate, Tyler Davis went about where he belonged in No. 96. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick115 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Darius Robinson at edge rusher with linebacker, quarterback and other spots open.
Pick117 Rnd4 James Williams
The board had cheaper options than James Williams at pick 117, and it noticed. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Cam Hart in No. 124 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They went early on Kitan Oladapo in the 152nd pick, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at Round 6, Pick 20 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
They did well to land Jared Wiley in slot 211, just ahead of his grade. It fills a real need, too.
Pick234 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dwight McGlothern well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
