FutureB-
The Jaguars fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Tyler Grubbs at pick No. 242 is 209 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
Getting Fifita where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.
Pick Analysis
Pick62
Rnd2
Antonio Williams
They paid a round early for Antonio Williams in the 62nd overall pick, more than the board wanted. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick81
Rnd3
Whit Weeks
They jumped the gun on Whit Weeks, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90
Rnd3
Drew Shelton
They paid sticker price for Drew Shelton in No. 90, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bryce Lance. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166
Rnd5
Drew Allar
A quiet steal in the 166th pick: Drew Allar for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick167
Rnd5
Zane Durant
A big swing on Zane Durant at slot 167, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick172
Rnd5
Tanner Koziol
Nothing to complain about; Tanner Koziol went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192
Rnd6
Evan Stewart
A premium they did not need to pay, Evan Stewart a notch or two before his time. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick193
Rnd6
Josh Moten
A reach on Josh Moten in pick No. 193; the board had better options right there. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick203
Rnd6
Rasheem Biles
Rasheem Biles at No. 203 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick221
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
A wild overpay on Jason Henderson in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
The board had cheaper options than Nolan Rucci at pick 232, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick240
Rnd7
Xavian Sorey Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Xavian Sorey Jr.. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick242
Rnd7
Tyler Grubbs
They talked themselves into Tyler Grubbs at slot 242, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick244
Rnd7
Fernando Carmona
Fernando Carmona at Round 7, Pick 29 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick245
Rnd7
Jack Velling
Jack Velling at the 245th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255
Rnd7
Noah Fifita
Somehow Noah Fifita was still sitting there in pick 255, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The roster fit checks out.
