Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureA
Good, not great, for the Jaguars: B-.

The Jaguars spent real capital to be 110 picks early on Desmond Watson, and the board is going to hold them to it. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Landing Warren that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 17th pick they get a disruptive interior force. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They robbed the room for Tyler Warren here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick49 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
A reach for Donovan Jackson in the 49th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Nothing to complain about; Jalen Royals went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Good price on Deone Walker in pick 88, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard at pick No. 107 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126 Rnd4 Desmond Watson
A wild overpay on Desmond Watson in Round 4, Pick 24, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
