To be honest, I like hearing that we got good draft grades versus bad ones, but I've learned not to take them seriously. Some things to consider with grades this year:

Many sites like to give very favorable grades to virtually every team. They know that many readers will hate it when someone tells them that they had a bad draft. As a result, almost everyone gets a good grade. You might see a grade of C- for Luke Farrell on CBS Sports' site and think he's not all that bad of a pick. However, only 3 players out the 259 players in the entire NFL draft received a grade worse than C- on their site. They are actually giving Farrell an extremely bad grade and think he's one of the worst picks of any team.
Most people giving the grades are not intimately familiar with all 32 teams in the NFL and particularly the Jaguars. I see sites giving Tyson Campbell a grade of B and saying that he will be good paired up opposite of Henderson. They are completely ignorant of the fact that we signed Shaquill Griffin to a huge contract this off-season and that drafting at the cornerback position made little sense to Jaguars fans. They are also likely completely ignorant of the Jaguars other needs and therefore aren't thinking about what other player(s) the Jaguars could have taken instead at that spot. Jaguar fans may hate that the team didn't draft a tight end early. The person giving the grade probably didn't even know the Jaguars needed one.
Some sites will give overall grades and "best drafts" based upon what you got and not necessarily how well you did with the picks available to you. The Jaguars had the 1st pick in each round, plus extra picks in the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th rounds. When you have that type of draft capital, you will come away with better players than most. To me, that's not the standard. The standard for me is whether we maximized those 10 picks.
In regards to this draft, Trevor Lawrence is universally getting either A or A+ grades. He's a generational talent at the most important position. He's pulling up the Jaguars overall grade given by national media. However, Jaguars fans saw this pick as so much of no-brainer and a done deal months ago, that they are ignoring it when giving grades. Most fan's grades start with pick #25. As such, the overall grade by national media will be higher than many fans on here.
