It is a very strange offseason for the Jacksonville Jaguars, who welcomed former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen as their new head coach. This program is going to be pressed into figuring out how to build around quarterback Trevor Lawrence, and finally get the most out of it. That is the top priority. 

The 2025 NFL Draft class is a huge opportunity to continue building up this roster, and flip the fortunes of the program. Best player available is the topic at the top, and the Jaguars tackle major needs throughout. The Coen Era could start very strong with this haul. 

Round 1, Pick 5: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado

What position is Hunter going to play? It really doesn't matter considering that the Jaguars need help at both wide receiver and cornerback. You landed an elite player in the class with the No. 5 selection. 

Round 2, Pick 36: Wyatt Milum, OT, West Virginia

Some teams will value Milum at offensive tackle, while others will see his arm length and move him inside. At offensive guard, Milum should become a plus starter very quickly in his NFL tenure. 

Round 3, Pick 70: TJ Sanders, DT, South Carolina

The Jaguars could use some major upgrades on the interior of the defensive line. Sanders is an outstanding athlete at defensive tackle with a ton of upside to tap into. They need to find some difference makers in that position. 

Round 3, Pick 88: Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State

There isn't anything necessarily anything dynamic about Higgins, but he brings a massive frame and a lot of consistency. Lawrence needs a wide receiver that makes things easier for him outside of Brian Thomas Jr. in that room.

Round 4, Pick 106: Andrew Mukuba, S, Clemson

Mukuba was a good player at Clemson, but he became a great one at Texas in 2024. He played with increased physicality compared to what we have seen in the past. This is a future starter for an NFL team. 

Round 4, Pick 125: Chase Lundt, OT, UConn

Lundt isn't ready to compete for a starting job in 2024, but he is long, and has outstanding foot quickness. There is clear building blocks to develop on the NFL level. Good coaching will be needed. 

Round 5, Pick 143: David Walker, EDGE, Central Arkansas

From a pass rush perspective, Walker is incredibly nuanced. He plays with a great plan, and really good hands. Some might overlook him based on size but Walker is a tremendous player. 

Round 6, Pick 184: Kyle Monangai, RB, Rutgers

There isn't much hype around Monangai, at least compared to before the season. He is still a very determined runner, playing with a low center of gravity, and underrated foot quickness. Monangai should be a very strong element of a room. 

Round 6, Pick 196: Joshua Gray, IOL, Oregon State

It was surprising to see Gray still available. After spending the majority of his career at left tackle, Gray finally made the move inside to guard in 2024. He has the foot quickness, body type, and intelligence to backup multiple positions inside.

Round 7, Pick 223: Jackson Hawes, TE, Georgia Tech

There may not be a better blocking tight end in the class than Hawes. He won’t bring much to the passing game, but Hawes will serve a very important role for a prospective offense.
