2023 NFL Draft: Grading the Jaguars’ strategy and results on Day 1

The first round of the 2023 NFL Draft is a wrap. It was quite a night for the Jacksonville Jaguars, who traded down twice before selecting Oklahoma OT Anton Harrison.

The Giants struck a last-minute deal to swap first-rounders with Jacksonville. New York received the 24th overall pick and exchanged its 25th, 160th (fifth round), and 240th (sixth round) selections.

Soon after, the Jaguars sent pick no. 25 to the Bills for no.’s 27 and 130 (fourth round).

With the 27th overall pick, there were several big-name prospects still remaining on the board, including:

  • Georgia EDGE Nolan Smith
  • Clemson EDGE Myles Murphy
  • Penn State CB Joey Porter Jr.
