Overall, NFL draft experts who graded each team's 2026 NFL draft class were not impressed with the selections made by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
At the conclusion of each NFL draft, Rene Bugner compiles the various post-draft grades for each team and calculates their grade point average. This year, 24 different evaluations made up each team's respective GPA.
The Jaguars' cumulative GPA was 1.34, which ranked last among the 32 NFL teams. Just ahead of them were the LA Rams, with whom Jacksonville has strong ties to, with James Gladstone and Liam Coen leading the way.
Contributing to the Jaguars' low GPA were two Fs, a few D-'s, and numerous D grades.
Of the 24 letter grades received, only two were above a C+. The highest grade the Jaguars received was a B.

Chad Reuter of NFL.com, who gave the Jaguars their highest letter grade, in part, had this to say about their Day 3 picks:
"The Jaguars chose production over size in the fourth round, taking Williams instead of Dani Dennis-Sutton to bolster their pass rush," wrote Reuter. "Koziol was a better value pick in the fifth round than Boerkircher was in the second. And in the seventh, they found Durfee, an athletic edge with injury issues."
On the flip side, Ryan McCrystal of Sharp Football, who gave the Jaguars an F, had this to say about Gladstone's draft class:
"Despite having four top 100 picks, Gladstone came away with only one player believed to be in that range in terms of value," wrote McCrystal. "Pregnon should push for an immediate starting job, but there’s little chance the Jaguars added another quality long-term starter in this group."
Pick 240: Parker Hughes, LB, Middle Tennessee State
