Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueD+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Jaguars: B-.

The Maason Smith pick is the one that will follow the Jaguars into the fall. They took him 56 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 4 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at the 48th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Jarrian Jones
A wild overpay on Jarrian Jones in Round 3, Pick 33, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Foster
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Javon Foster well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Myles Cole
They left a pile of value on the table to take Myles Cole this early at the 116th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at pick 153 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Deantre Prince
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Deantre Prince. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick236 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
This one needs a full-page explanation: Joshua Cephus in No. 236, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
