FutureB-
The Jaguars fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Jaguars bet big and early on Jason Henderson, 115 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. No fireworks, but a solid B.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Altmyer value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick64
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Circle this one: Jake Slaughter at Round 2, Pick 32 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81
Rnd3
Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at No. 81 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick91
Rnd3
Bryce Lance
A real head-scratcher, Bryce Lance in the Round 3 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick124
Rnd4
Jack Endries
The board fumbled Jack Endries all the way to the 124th pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128
Rnd4
DJ McKinney
DJ McKinney at pick No. 128 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick130
Rnd4
Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at the 130th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick166
Rnd5
Monroe Mills
They took Monroe Mills at par in slot 166, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick167
Rnd5
Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol is a better player than the 167th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
By-the-book stuff, Bryce Boettcher at pick No. 168 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169
Rnd5
Lander Barton
They paid up for Lander Barton at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick191
Rnd6
Kalil Alexander
A big swing on Kalil Alexander at pick 191, well ahead of any board in the building. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick201
Rnd6
Drayk Bowen
Drayk Bowen at the 201st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jason Henderson in No. 233, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick240
Rnd7
TJ Metcalf
A swing that ignored the value entirely, TJ Metcalf well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241
Rnd7
Luke Altmyer
Somehow Luke Altmyer was still sitting there in slot 241, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick246
Rnd7
Avery Johnson
A tidy little value on Avery Johnson in pick 246, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick248
Rnd7
Keaten Wade
Keaten Wade at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick252
Rnd7
Jack Velling
Jack Velling at the 252nd pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
