Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Jaguars never addressed interior defensive lineman, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 9 of the wish list covered. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick58 Rnd2 Austin Barber
Austin Barber in the 58th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
By-the-book stuff, Malachi Fields at pick 81 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick89 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Nothing to complain about; Zakee Wheatley went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick100 Rnd3 Chandler Rivers
Chandler Rivers at pick No. 100 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
