However, the Jaguars still maintain flexibility in this year&#8217;s draft, with four picks in the top 100 and 11 selections overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Now, let&#8217;s dive into who the Jaguars selected with their four Day 2 picks:<\/p>\n<p>Pick 56: DT Dontay Corleone &#8211; CincinnatiPick 81: S Genesis Smith- ArizonaPick 88: G Keylan Rutledge &#8211; Georgia TechPick 100: TE Michael Trigg &#8211; Baylor<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The defensive line &#8212; both tackle and end &#8212; should be addressed this offseason. Corleone has made his biggest impact in the run game. Jacksonville needs more pass-rush juice up front.<\/p>\n<p>Expert NFL picks: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":body nav (nfl)|e|auto spike click:5|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_sp_a\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/picks\">Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Safety is a need with Andrew Wingard set to hit free agency. Eric Murray and Antonio Johnson are the likely starters in 2026, but this is a defense under Anthony Campanile that utilizes a lot of three-safety looks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Perhaps Rayuan Lane can fill that role, but depth and competition should be added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">The Jaguars are returning their entire starting five along the offensive line and some depth. However, the offensive line is always a position group that a GM should consider adding to. Now, does James Gladstone do that with a top 100 pick?<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Lastly, at tight end, Quintin Morris is a free agent, while Hunter Long and Johnny Mundt are entering the final year of their deals. Blocking ability is crucial at this position in Liam Coen&#8217;s offense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jan. 26, 2026, 12:06 p.m. ET It&#8217;s mock draft season &#8212; so who did the Jacksonville Jaguars come&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":708313,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2060],"tags":[95878,7,212,125,2401,213,6,31186,95933,95882,98256,96047,102870,95936,96040,95935,95895,95899,96048,95883,95881],"class_list":["post-708312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville-jaguars","tag-accessfree","tag-football","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-jaguars","tag-jacksonvillejaguars","tag-jaguars","tag-nfl","tag-sstssportsnfljaguars","tag-sstsnjaguars","tag-tagamerican-football","tag-tagandrew-wingard","tag-tageric-murray","tag-taghunter-long","tag-tagjacksonville-jaguars","tag-tagjohnny-mundt","tag-tagliam-coen","tag-tagnfl-hub","tag-tagoverall-neutral","tag-tagquintin-morris","tag-tagsports-news","tag-typestory"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115965729480863875","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=708312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708312\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/708313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=708312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=708312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=708312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
