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

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Dwight McGlothern at slot 234, a reach of 23 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In slot 32 they get protection for the quarterback, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 48th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ruke Orhorhoro
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ruke Orhorhoro. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at pick No. 79 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick96 Rnd3 Tyler Davis
No edge and no loss on Tyler Davis in Round 3, Pick 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick115 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick117 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A big swing on Cam Hart at the 117th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at slot 152 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick195 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Jones at the 195th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jawhar Jordan
They took Jawhar Jordan at par in Round 6, Pick 36, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dwight McGlothern. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
