Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

For all the boxes ticked, the Jaguars skipped the loudest one: wide receiver is exactly as bare as it was. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Wheatley pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They went 3 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick56 Rnd2 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy in pick 56 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick81 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
They read the board right and Zakee Wheatley was the payoff at slot 81. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick88 Rnd3 Julian Neal
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Julian Neal in pick No. 88. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jack Endries
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Endries at the 100th pick, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
