Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars robbed the room for Johnson. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Jaguars watched Cornelius Johnson slide 49 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

Kamara has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Quinyon Mitchell
In No. 17 they get a sticky cover corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at the 48th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick96 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They read the board right and Dominick Puni was the payoff at pick 96. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at Round 4, Pick 14 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick116 Rnd4 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They robbed the room for Dadrion Taylor-Demerson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick153 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
The board had Trevor Keegan higher than the 153rd overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Steele Chambers in pick No. 212. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick236 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
They will replay Cornelius Johnson at slot 236 for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
