Draft Grade — Jaguars

Grand theft in slot 184: the Jaguars steal Winston Jr. and grade out a B-.

Call it larceny. Kevin Winston Jr. sat on the board until the Round 6 slot, and the Jaguars did not need to be asked twice.

The Elzinga reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. With offensive lineman, linebacker and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on specialist is the choice that costs them.

The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 5 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Trey Amos
A reach for Trey Amos in Round 2, Pick 4; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick70 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
The board had Azareye'h Thomas higher than pick No. 70, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Bond reach pick 88 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ryan Fitzgerald
A surprising call. With offensive lineman, linebacker and other spots still to address, they spent the 106th overall pick on Ryan Fitzgerald, a specialist they were not short of.
Pick125 Rnd4 Luke Elzinga
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Luke Elzinga at specialist with offensive lineman, linebacker and other spots open.
Pick143 Rnd5 Alex Mastromanno
They talked themselves into Alex Mastromanno at the Round 5 slot, and the board did not agree. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kevin Winston Jr.
The board fumbled Kevin Winston Jr. all the way to the 184th pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick196 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
They barely believed it either: Tahj Brooks still on the board at slot 196. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in the 223rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
