Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureA+
The Jaguars let Johnson fall and pounced. Final grade: A-.

The Jaguars spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tez Johnson, the No. 99 name on the board, in pick 142.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They will need Brooks to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Bottom line, with Walter Nolen leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 14th pick they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jalon Walker at pick No. 36. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick70 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at Round 3, Pick 6 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick76 Rnd3 Darien Porter
By-the-book stuff, Darien Porter at slot 76 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
They robbed the room for Jalen Royals here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
You do not let a tight end like Mason Taylor reach the 107th overall pick and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dorian Strong. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at No. 126 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick142 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
They will replay Tez Johnson at the 142nd pick for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt slipping to Round 6, Pick 6 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
They barely believed it either: Jaydon Blue still on the board at pick 194. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick211 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at pick No. 211 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick221 Rnd7 Ja'Corey Brooks
They paid up for Ja'Corey Brooks at the 221st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
