Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall D+
ValueF NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Not the weekend the Jaguars were hoping for: D+.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Jaguars started one anyway for Donald Chaney, 304 picks ahead of schedule.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Sampson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 RJ Oben
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a problem off the edge, a steep price for the projection.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They took Tyleik Williams at par in the 36th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson at pick 70 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Donald Chaney
Donald Chaney at slot 88 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick107 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Dylan Sampson in the 107th overall pick, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick126 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They paid up for Hollin Pierce at No. 126 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick142 Rnd5 Ben Sauls
Ben Sauls at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick182 Rnd6 Akili Arnold
They reached a country mile for Akili Arnold at the 182nd overall pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Isas Waxter
A real head-scratcher, Isas Waxter in Round 6, Pick 18 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick221 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
The board fumbled Oronde Gadsden II all the way to the 221st pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
