Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Jaguars spent slot 243 on Josh Proctor, a name the board had a full 54 spots lower. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

That Smith pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped linebacker, which is a strange place to end up.

They went 6 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In pick 22 they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that.
Pick54 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick86 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes in No. 86 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick96 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They paid sticker price for Dominick Puni in Round 3, Pick 33, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick113 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
Beaux Limmer in the 113th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick122 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Brenden Rice at slot 122. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
You do not let a cornerback like Khyree Jackson reach pick No. 159 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 Ainias Smith
Steal is underselling it; Ainias Smith at the 200th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brevyn Spann-Ford
No edge and no loss on Brevyn Spann-Ford in slot 211; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick243 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
