The Jaguars worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Jaguars spent the Round 7 slot on Jason Henderson, a name most had 100 spots down the list. No fireworks, but a solid B.
Leavitt falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.
Pick Analysis
Pick58
Rnd2
Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe slipping to No. 58 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74
Rnd3
Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane in the 74th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90
Rnd3
Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at the 90th overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick91
Rnd3
Jack Endries
They liked Jack Endries enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 91. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick100
Rnd3
Sam Leavitt
The board fumbled Sam Leavitt all the way to pick No. 100, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110
Rnd4
Evan Stewart
They paid up for Evan Stewart at slot 110 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick142
Rnd5
Chase Roberts
A slide stopped in pick No. 142, with Chase Roberts worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick149
Rnd5
Xavier Scott
Xavier Scott at Round 5, Pick 11 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183
Rnd6
Tristan Leigh
A reach for Tristan Leigh in the 183rd overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick191
Rnd6
Jack Velling
Jack Velling at No. 191 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198
Rnd6
Fernando Carmona
A conviction pick on Fernando Carmona at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick217
Rnd7
TJ Metcalf
TJ Metcalf in slot 217 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222
Rnd7
Jason Henderson
A big swing on Jason Henderson at pick 222, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick230
Rnd7
Dante Dowdell
No edge and no loss on Dante Dowdell in the 230th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239
Rnd7
Keaten Wade
Value said wait; Keaten Wade in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick243
Rnd7
Reid Carrico
They reached a country mile for Reid Carrico at the 243rd overall pick, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245
Rnd7
Avery Johnson
A quarterback of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 29 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
