The Jacksonville Jaguars are in a much different place than the last two years entering the draft. After picking first overall in both 2021 and 2022, the Jaguars are set to pick 24th after making a playoff run.
That’s the first of nine selections Jacksonville is scheduled to make with two picks in the fourth round and three in the sixth.
Instead of the Jaguars, it’s the Carolina Panthers set to pick first on Thursday after trading to acquire the pick from the Chicago Bears. Here’s the full order ahead of the draft later this week:
Collectively, the Jaguars’ nine picks are worth 440 points in draft capital, according to the trade value chart developed by Rich Hill of Pats Pulpit. By the original (albeit antiquated) chart created by Jimmy Johnson, the Jaguars have 1,359.4 points.
In two drafts as the Jaguars’ general manager, Trent Baalke has brokered just three trades. All of them — including the deal to acquire another first-rounder in 2022 to pick Devin Lloyd — were trades to move up the draft order.
