Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Jaguars lost the trade table, and the D+ tells the story.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Jaguars, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Watts steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the Round 1 slot they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick17 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 17th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Carson Beck
Good price on Carson Beck in the 34th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It fills a real need, too.
Pick36 Rnd2 Barrett Carter
They let Barrett Carter come to them and pounced at pick No. 36. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick45 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
James Pearce Jr. at Round 2, Pick 13 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick48 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A quiet steal in slot 48: Xavier Watts for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick65 Rnd3 Dylan Sampson
They did well to land Dylan Sampson in No. 65, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick95 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
A tidy bit of business in pick 95, where Luke Kandra graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jack Nelson
The board had Jack Nelson higher than the 115th overall pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Theo Wease Jr.
Theo Wease Jr. at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
