Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars won the night they stopped McKinstry from sliding. Grade: B.

The board owed the Jaguars one, and it paid up: Kool-Aid McKinstry, the No. 19 name on the board, sitting there at pick 39 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They are betting Taylor III proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. They chose more darts over a bigger single swing.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick39 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
The board fumbled Kool-Aid McKinstry all the way to pick No. 39, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Guyton in pick 47. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick48 Rnd2 Devontez Walker
Devontez Walker at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They paid sticker price for Cooper Beebe in slot 79, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick96 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at No. 96 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick116 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They read the board right and Khyree Jackson was the payoff at the 116th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick120 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Justin Eboigbe. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick121 Rnd4 James Williams
They went early on James Williams in the 121st overall pick, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at No. 155 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick195 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley in pick No. 195 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick199 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
Nothing to complain about; Jordan Magee went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
A straight-up fair deal on Jase McClellan at slot 211, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick237 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
A clean, defensible pick in the 237th overall pick with a little surplus value in Joshua Cephus. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
