Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB FutureB-
The Jaguars did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Jaguars never addressed safety, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Bortolini reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
Nothing to complain about; T'Vondre Sweat went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick56 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at the 56th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
No edge and no loss on Christian Mahogany in slot 96; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
By-the-book stuff, Elijah Jones at pick 114 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick116 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick153 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick at the 153rd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick174 Rnd5 Tanor Bortolini
They paid up for Tanor Bortolini at pick No. 174 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Good price on Jared Wiley in Round 6, Pick 37, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236 Rnd7 Bub Means
Bub Means in slot 236 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
