FutureB-
The Jaguars worked the phones like thieves and earned a B. The Jaguars spent real capital to be 107 picks early on Anthony Smith, and the board is going to hold them to it.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Johnson.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick64
Rnd2
Jacarrius Peak
A conviction pick on Jacarrius Peak at the 64th overall pick that the board grades a round light. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81
Rnd3
LJ Martin
LJ Martin at Round 3, Pick 17 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick88
Rnd3
Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper in pick No. 88 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93
Rnd3
Zach Lutmer
Zach Lutmer at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94
Rnd3
Koi Perich
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Koi Perich well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick96
Rnd3
Cooper Barkate
Cooper Barkate at slot 96 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100
Rnd3
Taylor Wein
A big swing on Taylor Wein at the 100th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick124
Rnd4
Drake Lindsey
Drake Lindsey at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125
Rnd4
Greg Johnson
They robbed the room for Greg Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick138
Rnd4
Drayk Bowen
A straight-up fair deal on Drayk Bowen at pick 138, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162
Rnd5
Jacob Ponton
Jacob Ponton in pick No. 162 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick163
Rnd5
C.J. Fite
C.J. Fite in Round 5, Pick 25 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick164
Rnd5
Benjamin Brahmer
Benjamin Brahmer at the 164th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181
Rnd6
Austin Romaine
Austin Romaine at slot 181 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220
Rnd7
Chris Marshall
No edge and no loss on Chris Marshall in No. 220; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228
Rnd7
Anthony Smith
Value said wait; Anthony Smith in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick233
Rnd7
Monroe Mills
They reached into another round for Monroe Mills, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239
Rnd7
DJ McKinney
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DJ McKinney. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jahiem White
They reached a country mile for Jahiem White at the 241st overall pick, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick245
Rnd7
Daevin Hobbs
A reach for Daevin Hobbs in Round 7, Pick 29; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247
Rnd7
Amare Campbell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Amare Campbell this early at slot 247. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251
Rnd7
Keon Wylie
This one needs a full-page explanation: Keon Wylie in pick 251, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255
Rnd7
Shamar Porter
No drama and no debate, Shamar Porter went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
