FutureB-
The Jaguars turned the phones into found money: B. The Jaguars clearly saw something nobody else did in Drake Nugent, taking him 57 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The bottom line is a respectable B.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Spending an early pick on edge rusher with linebacker and quarterback open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through linebacker.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but linebacker.
Pick Analysis
Pick42
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell slipping to slot 42 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick56
Rnd2
Kiran Amegadjie
A tidy little value on Kiran Amegadjie in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick57
Rnd2
T'Vondre Sweat
They paid sticker price for T'Vondre Sweat in the 57th overall pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick79
Rnd3
Mekhi Wingo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Mekhi Wingo at the 79th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick83
Rnd3
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in Round 3, Pick 19 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
A reach for Zak Zinter in pick 87; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91
Rnd3
Drake Nugent
They reached a country mile for Drake Nugent at Round 3, Pick 28, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick96
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108
Rnd4
Darius Robinson
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Darius Robinson adds an edge rusher and leaves linebacker and quarterback untouched.
Pick114
Rnd4
James Williams
James Williams at No. 114 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116
Rnd4
Cam Hart
This one needs a full-page explanation: Cam Hart in slot 116, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick135
Rnd4
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
A premium they did not need to pay, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155
Rnd5
McCallan Castles
A clean, defensible pick in the 155th overall pick with a little surplus value in McCallan Castles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick156
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
A straight-up fair deal on Jaylen Wright at pick No. 156, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick195
Rnd6
De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at the 195th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick211
Rnd6
Kingsley Eguakun
A reach on Kingsley Eguakun in pick No. 211; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick237
Rnd7
DeMonte Capehart
They talked themselves into DeMonte Capehart at Round 7, Pick 17, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
