Just because the 2026 NFL draft is underway does not mean that we are done running through mock draft simulations for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
All things considered, the first round played out about as well as it could have for the Jaguars. Numerous players at key positions of need still remain available, while Jacksonville also continues to maintain a high level of flexibility to let the board dictate which direction they go.
On Day 2 of the draft, the Jaguars have four selections at the moment. So let’s run through a mock draft using PFF’s simulator, taking into account who’s been taken already, and see how things turn out.
Pick 56: Gennings Dunker, OL, Iowa
A best-player-available kind of selection. Offensive line isn’t a pressing need, but we can’t rule out the Jaguars making a pick here either, as Jacksonville looks to be more productive in the run game this season. The Jaguars embraced competition on the offensive line last summer; there’s no reason to think they won’t do it again. Dunker provided a steady presence at tackle for Iowa. He projects to be a guard in the NFL.
Pick 81: Keyron Crawford, ED, Auburn
The pass rush rotation behind Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker needs a boost. Crawford generated 43 quarterback pressures and five sacks in 2025, according to PFF. He would rank 39th among all defensive ends in pressures and was 33rd in pass rush win rate, illustrating his ability to win his matchups.
Pick 88: Rayshaun Benny, IDL, Michigan
Adding depth and competition to the interior defensive line is a must. Benny has played 1,209 career snaps, most of which have come lined up in the B-gap. He logged 18 pressures last season — 20 the year before — and was a top-graded run defender from the interior. Benny’s impact won’t always show up on the stat sheet, but his ability to occupy space and take on blockers can clog running lanes and create opportunities for his teammates.
Pick 100: Kyle Louis, LB, Pitt
A great value at pick 100 — Louis brings a versatile presence to the linebacker position. Louis has been very effective as a blitzer, recording 50 pressures over the last two seasons. In coverage, he’s logged five pass breakups and six interceptions the last two years, while holding pass catchers to 8.4 yards per catch.
