Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jaguars, and a B- to prove it.

The Jaguars treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 195 on De'Corian Clark a full 22 spots early. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Spending an early pick on DT-EDGE with linebacker and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 17th pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They liked T'Vondre Sweat enough to skip the value, taking him in the 48th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They paid sticker price for Cooper Beebe in pick No. 79, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick96 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Maason Smith at DT-EDGE with linebacker and quarterback open.
Pick114 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They paid a round early for Darius Robinson in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
Jaden Hicks in slot 116 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaylin Simpson. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at the 195th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
By-the-book stuff, Jared Wiley at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan at pick 237 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
