Jaguars Mock Draft: Benny, Klare, Louis, Davis, Payton

0:00On April 5th, Chad Reuter from NFL.com just dropped a five-round mock draft looking ahead to the 2026 NFL draft in the Jacksonville. Jaguars make some solid moves starting on day two. They snagged defensive tackle Ray Sean Benny from Michigan at Pick 56. Tide-N-Max Clare from Ohio State at 81, linebacker Kyle Lewis. From Pitta 88 and Cornerback to Cario Davis from Washington at 100, Day 3 brings more depth with running back Nicholas Singleton from Penn State at Pick 124, wide receiver Caleb Douglas from Texas Tech at 164 and Ed Drusher, Patrick Payton from LSU at 166. Fans and analysts see defensive tackle as the Jaguars top priority, so grabbing Benny early hits that need hard, especially if the board falls right. Tide-N-Flies under the radar, but adds real flexibility, while Cornerback Dev makes sense even after resigning Monterey Brown. The linebacker pick bolsters the front seven nicely.

1:01On day three though, their running back might come a tad early with guys like Chris Rodriguez already on the roster. Mod drafts love it there, but Jacksonville might hold off. Wide receiver shows they're still hunting targets after chasing Jake Bobo, and Edge needs more bites earlier than the fifth to amp up competition. This mock keeps the Jags building smart for a contention push. Football news, powered by AI. This is NFL News Today.
