Jacksonville Jaguars NFL draft picks 2024: Full list of team's round-by-round selections
Here is a 2024 NFL draft pick-by-pick breakdown for the Jacksonville Jaguars:
Round 1 (No. 23 overall, from Browns through Texans and Vikings) — Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU: The 6-3, 209-pounder put down a 4.33 40 at the combine in the wake of a season when he had 1,177 yards on 68 catches – a quarter of those receptions resulting in TDs. He'll have to prove he was more than a byproduct of playing with QB Jayden Daniels and opposite WR Malik Nabers at LSU. Yet Thomas is headed to a team where he doesn't have to immediately assume a WR1 role or replace all of departed Calvin Ridley's production given the presence of Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, newly signed Gabe Davis and TE Evan Engram.

Round 2 (48) — Maason Smith, DT, LSU: Could reach estimable potential as he joins a Jags line that also just welcomed veteran DT Arik Armstead and has Josh Allen and Travon Walker on the edges. Smith should be another who can slice through the gaps and disrupt a pocket. Draft tracker
Round 3 (96, compensatory selection) — Jarrian Jones, CB, Florida State: Sub-4.4 speed. Lives in the slot, where he might pilfer a ball or blitz. Draft tracker
Round 4 (114) — Javon Foster, OT, Missouri: Jacksonville finally adds to the offensive line in the draft with Foster. The longtime Tigers left tackle was a standout in pass protection against SEC competition and helped pave the way for running back Cody Schrader. His aggression in run blocking could make him one of the better value picks in the class for Jacksonville. Draft tracker
Round 4 (116, from Saints) — Jordan Jefferson, DT, LSU: Jacksonville goes two-for-two with LSU defensive tackles after taking Maason Smith in Round 2. He's strong at the point of attack and uses his burst off the line well. He lacks flexibility and balance that you'd like to see on the interior. He'd be a rotational linemen and this seems early to draft him. Draft tracker
Round 5 (153) — Deantre Prince, CB, Ole Miss: Jacksonville bolsters cornerback again here with an elite athlete at ideal size. He took a one-year hiatus to junior college in 2020 before returning to Ole Miss. He was a reliable player for the Rebels with okay ball production. He's best in press coverage and his athleticism and toughness will keep him on an NFL roster regardless of how quickly he develops. Draft tracker
Round 5 (167, from Chiefs through Vikings) — Keilan Robinson, RB, Texas: Robinson's college production was limited with the likes of Bijan Robinson, Roschon Johnson, and Jonathan Brooks on the roster. He was a standout returner which is likely his role in the NFL. He could end up a great return man in Jacksonville. But at this pick, the Jaguars would've been better served shoring up other needs.

Round 6 (212, compensatory selection) — Cam Little, K, Arkansas: Little never missed an extra point and connected on 53 of 64 career field goals in college. He consistently gets the necessary power behind kicks but can often miss wide right when he's off. It's not shiny, but it's a pick the Jaguars can hope will address the kicker position into the future. Draft tracker
Round 7 (236) — Myles Cole, DE, Texas Tech: Cole's college production is surprisingly low considering his athletic profile. His height and arm length, along with his power, make him a worthwhile project in the NFL. He needs to develop against the running game as Jacksonville lines him up with fellow edge rushers Travon Walker and Josh Allen. Draft tracker
