The Jacksonville Jaguars don’t have a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft… but 26 others do! To predict Round 1, I called on Keanu Kargar, a Jags fan who had the second-most accurate mock among thousands of entries in 2021. Here’s how Keanu sees tonight unfolding. 1.

NFL Draft 2026: What time are the Jaguars picking in the second round?
Barring a last-second surprise, the Jacksonville Jaguars will not participate in Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft.

If the Jaguars happen to move into the first round after this […]
2026 NFL Draft: Big Cat Country’s Final Big Board Compared to Consensus
The draft process is an exercise in identifying value where others might miss it. It’s about trying to bridge the gap between internal evaluations and public perception to sift out which players teams covet, predicting how draft weekend will unfold, and then naturally looking back years later to see how wrong you were. This particular […]
Which future roster needs should the Jaguars address in the 2026 NFL Draft?
As much as everyone likes to harp on drafting the best available players, every team prioritizes positions of need on its board. The Jacksonville Jaguars are a good bet to add pass rush depth behind Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker, linebacker competition to compensate for Devin Lloyd’s departure, and big-bodied skill players to diversify Liam […]

The 2026 NFL Draft kicks off tomorrow! For the first time in franchise history, the Jaguars will not have a first-round pick. The Jags have 11 picks (for now) this year. Let’s take a look at the players most recently drafted by the team in those draft slots. Round 2, Pick 56: DT Larry Smith […]
Would Travis Hunter be the 1st overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft?
Here’s a hypothetical. What if the Jacksonville Jaguars never drafted Travis Hunter at second overall in the 2025 NFL Draft — because they never got the opportunity to? Let’s say, hypothetically, that the two-way phenom decided to take a gap year after winning the 2024 Heisman Trophy and before entering the league. Let’s also assume […]

The biggest mistake the Titans could make at 4th overall
For a long time, draft season was the season in Duval County. The question of “Which college prospects are going to turn around my Jacksonville Jaguars?” came to mind well before the end of each regular season. No more! The 2026 draft cycle has been boring as heck — but in a good way. Liam […]

The Jaguars May Be the NFL’s UDFA Kings Again in 2026
With Thursday night kicking off the 2026 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars are currently expected to add somewhere between 15 and 18 undrafted free agents (UDFAs) following this weekend’s action in Pittsburgh, per OverTheCap. Of course, this figure depends on post-draft veteran signings, potential draft day trades, and unforeseen offseason cuts shaping the 2026 roster. […]

Jaguars 2026 NFL Draft Targets: Linebackers
With the defensive tackle group already in the books, the next stop in this series shifts to another position that could very much be in play when the Jaguars are on the clock at 56 overall: linebacker.

Jacksonville Draft Targets: Cornerbacks Who Make Sense
The Jacksonville Jaguars may not say cornerback is a pressing need heading into April, but actions — and injuries — tend to speak louder than pre-draft messaging.
