Who did the Jacksonville Jaguars select in a three-round 2026 NFL mock draft from Pro Football Network?
Although the Jaguars don’t have a first-round pick, the team still has four picks on Day 2 of the draft, giving GM James Gladstone flexibility.
Whether it be in free agency, the draft, or both, this feels like an offseason where Gladstone is going to heavily address the defensive side of the ball, given the current state of the roster.
Now, let’s take a look at who PFN’s Jacob Infante had the Jaguars selecting.

I do like the selections at picks 56 and 100. Those positions are two of the bigger needs that the Jaguars have to tackle this offseason.
At cornerback, Montaric Brown and Greg Newsome are both set to be free agents. At defensive tackle, more depth and pass-rush juice are needed from that unit overall.
With that said, while the goal is to load up on high-end talent in the draft, positionally speaking, I don’t know that running back and wide receiver should be top 100 picks for the Jaguars.
Even if Travis Etienne heads elsewhere in free agency, the Jaguars still have Bhayshul Tuten and LeQuint Allen. Yes, adding to the depth will be a need, but I don’t know that needs to happen this early in the draft.
Then at receiver, under contract next year are Jakobi Meyers, Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington, and Travis Hunter. Again, depth can always be bolstered, but that unit already seems to be pretty well set.
