Jaguars Focus on Defense in 2026 Mock Draft

Published March 29, 2026 · Updated March 29, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Jacksonville Jaguars prioritize defensive needs in Pro Football Network's 2026 mock draft, selecting three defenders in first three rounds.

In a recent 2026 NFL mock draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars went heavy on defense despite lacking a first-round selection. With 11 total picks including four in the top 100, GM James Gladstone has flexibility to address roster needs.

The Jaguars selected Lee Hunter (IDL, Texas Tech) at pick 57 to bolster their defensive tackle position, Kaleb Elarms-Orr (LB, TCU) at pick 81 to fill the void left by Devin Lloyd, and R Mason Thomas (EDGE, Oklahoma) at pick 88 for additional pass-rush depth. They also added Seth McGowan (RB, Kentucky) at pick 100.
