Jaguars Target Defensive Depth in 2026 Mock Draft

In the mock draft, the Jaguars chose defensive tackle Lee Hunter from Texas Tech, linebacker Kaleb Elarms‑Orr from TCU, and edge rusher R Mason Thomas from Oklahoma. These selections aim to strengthen the front line and add pass‑rush depth behind Josh Hines‑Allen and Travon Walker.

With no first‑round pick, GM James Gladstone has 11 selections to address roster gaps. The team also added running back Seth McGowan from Kentucky to replace Travis Etienne, while keeping a flexible approach to future draft moves.
