Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Jaguars a B+.

The Emery Jones Jr. pick is the one that will follow the Jaguars into the fall. They took him 34 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Kristian Fulton pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

They went 5 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at Round 2, Pick 31 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They took Quinshon Judkins at par in No. 66, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
A reach on Chris Paul Jr. in the 70th pick; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Emery Jones Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Emery Jones Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
