The Jacksonville Jaguars have not traditionally been the best-drafting franchise throughout their history. In fact, they have gone long stretches of executing ill-fated drafts. While recent picks like Travon Walker, Trevor Lawrence, Brian Thomas Jr, and more likely than not, Travis Hunter are looking to flip this narrative, it will take some time due to the Jaguars' past.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are still feeling the impact of the 2025 NFL Draft, which has the potential to be one of the biggest in franchise history. Simply put, the Jaguars' trade up for Heisman Trophy winner Travis Hunter was the defining moment of not just the Jaguars' draft, but of the entire weekend.

The NFL Draft cycle never ends, even when one draft is still fresh in our minds. While the 2026 NFL Draft is still close to 12 months away, that does not stop projections by any means. And the latest projections come in the form of an early three-round 2026 mock draft from Pro Football Network's Joe DeLeone. The Jaguars, of course, do not have a 2026 first-round pick as a result of the Travis Hunter trade. With their pick, the Cleveland Browns take Auburn pass-rusher Keldric Faulk at No. 8 overall.
