Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Jaguars a B-.

Nobody had Tyreak Sapp this high, and it is not close. The Jaguars reached 35 spots to get him at No. 88.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. However the rest shakes out, Koziol at that price is a win they earned.

They went 8 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick56 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Fair-plus on Gennings Dunker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane in the Round 3 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Tyreak Sapp
Tyreak Sapp in pick 88 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick100 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. in the 100th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick124 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalon Kilgore in Round 4, Pick 24. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162 Rnd5 Louis Moore
Nothing to complain about; Louis Moore went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick164 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
A slide stopped in pick No. 164, with Tanner Koziol worth more than the price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick233 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
By-the-book stuff, Aiden Fisher at Round 7, Pick 17 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick245 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
Desmond Reid in the 245th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
