Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Jaguars for Pieper: A-.

When a board-topper like Kade Pieper slides to pick No. 89, you do not overthink it, and the Jaguars did not. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The linebacker hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Brian Branch deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Will Echoles
In slot 26 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick58 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in the 58th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper in pick No. 89 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127 Rnd4 Faletau Satuala
Faletau Satuala in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick164 Rnd5 Marcus Neal Jr.
You do not let a safety like Marcus Neal Jr. reach pick 164 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick172 Rnd5 Christian Gray
They barely believed it either: Christian Gray still on the board at Round 5, Pick 33. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Braylon Staley
Braylon Staley in No. 214 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd6 Eli Bowen
The board fumbled Eli Bowen all the way to the 217th pick, and they scooped it up. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick246 Rnd7 Smith Snowden
Smith Snowden slipping to pick No. 246 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
