Every team. Every round. We take a look through every 2022 NFL Draft class for all 32 NFL teams. How did your favorite team do?

The 2022 NFL Draft is officially in the books. Which teams won and which teams lost?

Well, that depends on who you ask.

The NFL Draft is anything but an exact science. 10 different people will have 10 different opinions about each respective class, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

With that being said, we’re going to take a stab at giving grades to all 32 NFL Draft classes in 2022. Which teams won this year’s draft?

Jacksonville Jaguars 2022 NFL Draft class grade: B+

1. Travon Walker, EDGE, Georgia
27. Devin Lloyd, LB, Utah
65. Luke Fortner, OL, Kentucky
70. Chad Muma, LB, Wyoming
154. Snoop Conner, RB, Ole Miss
197. Gregory Junior, CB, Ouachita Baptist
222. Montaric Brown, CB, Arkansas

There’s a lot to like about the Jacksonville Jaguars’ draft class in 2022.

Obviously, this team owned the first overall pick in the Draft and they swung for the fences by taking Travon Walker instead of Aidan Hutchinson despite Hutchinson perhaps having a more consistent body of work over the last couple of years.

Ultimately, Walker’s athleticism was far too enticing to pass on for Trent Baalke and Doug Pederson.

Later in the first round, the Jaguars landed another tremendous value with Devin Lloyd at pick 27 overall. They had to trade up to get him, but Lloyd gives that Jacksonville defense a versatile weapon that makes one game-changing play after another.

On day two, the additions of Luke Fortner and Chad Muma will be expected to come in and be starters right away for the Jaguars.

Jacksonville moved up on Day 3 to select Ole Miss running back Snoop Conner, an absolutely punishing runner who could be a fun player to watch as well.
