Draft Grade — Jaguars
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Jaguars this weekend: B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Jaguars, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Henderson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Preston Smith gives the group a proven body among the projects.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In the 25th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice in the 48th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick58 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They went early on Patrick Paul in Round 2, Pick 26, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick96 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at pick No. 96 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick114 Rnd4 James Williams
A conviction pick on James Williams at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They liked Johnny Wilson enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 116. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
A reach on Khristian Boyd in slot 153; the board had better options right there. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at pick 212 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick236 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
A premium they did not need to pay, LaDarius Henderson a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
