Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
The Jaguars let Gabriel fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dillon Gabriel got past him. The Jaguars do not have to explain a thing at slot 184. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If Webb pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick 5 they get an anchor for the defensive front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at the 36th pick for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at pick No. 70 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at the 88th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams slid further than he should have, and No. 106 is lovely value for the wide receiver. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
A quiet steal in Round 4, Pick 24: Brashard Smith for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184 Rnd6 Dillon Gabriel
Steal is underselling it; Dillon Gabriel at slot 184 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick196 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
Nice patience on Cobee Bryant, who had no business lasting to the Round 6 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick223 Rnd7 Clay Webb
They reached a country mile for Clay Webb at No. 223, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
