Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jaguars worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

Nobody had Elijhah Badger this high, and it is not close. The Jaguars reached 84 spots to get him at the 196th overall pick. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

Judkins falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The linebacker spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. DeForest Buckner gives the group a proven body among the projects.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In No. 14 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Walter Nolen at the 36th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick70 Rnd3 Xavier Watts
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at slot 70 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
They took Dylan Fairchild at par in the 88th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jabbar Muhammad
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jabbar Muhammad well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick184 Rnd6 Terrance Ferguson
A tight end of that caliber at the 184th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick196 Rnd6 Elijhah Badger
They reached a country mile for Elijhah Badger at pick 196, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They reached into another round for Shilo Sanders, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
