Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jaguars, and a B to prove it.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Jaguars took Jared Ivey at No. 36, roughly 42 spots before his name belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B.

They banked enough surplus on Judkins to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 21 they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
A wild overpay on Jared Ivey in slot 36, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They let Jayden Higgins come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick78 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A tidy little value on Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 78, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick83 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
A straight-up fair deal on Gunnar Helm at the 83rd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
You do not let a running back like Quinshon Judkins reach pick 88 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick91 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton at the 91st overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick107 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
A real head-scratcher, Jackson Slater in Round 4, Pick 5 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 126 with a little surplus value in Dorian Strong. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in the 156th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Chase Lundt at the Round 6 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue in slot 194 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick212 Rnd6 Ricky White III
By-the-book stuff, Ricky White III at No. 212 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick221 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
They paid up for Ja'Corey Brooks at No. 221 when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
