Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jaguars and Marks: B.

The board owed the Jaguars one, and it paid up: Woody Marks, the No. 193 name on the board, sitting there at slot 221 like a gift left on the doorstep. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Smith pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In slot 5 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Trey Amos
A reach on Trey Amos in No. 36; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 3 slot with a little surplus value in Jalen Royals. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in the 88th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick107 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
They reached a country mile for Brashard Smith at pick No. 107, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at pick 126 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick142 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
They did well to land Malachi Moore in Round 5, Pick 4, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
They took Jack Kiser at par in the 182nd pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick194 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
They liked Luke Lachey enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 194. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick221 Rnd7 Woody Marks
Woody Marks at the 221st overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
