Landry_3 DRAFTING FOR THEJaguars

Draft Grade — Jaguars

FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jaguars, and a B- to prove it. There is conviction, and then there is this. The Jaguars took Akheem Mesidor a full 39 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.
Landing Arnold that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The Jaguars indulged a want in Mesidor while a need in interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots stayed open. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick60
Rnd2
Caleb Tiernan
Caleb Tiernan at Round 2, Pick 28 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81
Rnd3
Eric Singleton Jr.
Eric Singleton Jr. at the 81st pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick91
Rnd3
Anto Saka
They reached a country mile for Anto Saka at pick 91, and the board is aghast. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick100
Rnd3
Akheem Mesidor
A curious use of the 100th overall pick. Interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots needed the pick; an edge rusher in Akheem Mesidor did not.
Pick128
Rnd4
Chris Johnson
A quiet steal in slot 128: Chris Johnson for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick166
Rnd5
Connor Tollison
They went early on Connor Tollison in pick No. 166, and the value did not follow. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick167
Rnd5
Raleek Brown
No edge and no loss on Raleek Brown in the 167th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jaren Kanak
The board had Jaren Kanak higher than the Round 7 slot, and the tight end fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick240
Rnd7
Jackson Arnold
Jackson Arnold at Round 7, Pick 24 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
