Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jaguars kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Jaguars took Khristian Boyd a full 25 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

However the rest shakes out, Franklin at that price is a win they earned. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

They went 7 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 17th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
The board had Troy Franklin higher than Round 2, Pick 16, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Maason Smith
They paid up for Maason Smith at pick No. 96 when waiting would have done the job. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick114 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in the 114th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick116 Rnd4 James Williams
James Williams at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick153 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
They reached a country mile for Khristian Boyd at No. 153, and the board is aghast. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jared Wiley
They did well to land Jared Wiley in pick No. 212, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick236 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace in pick 236 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
