The Jacksonville Jaguars have clear needs at defensive in, defensive tackle, and linebacker heading into the 2026 NFL Draft. But General Manager James Gladstone might surprise fans by targeting tight end early, especially with four picks in the top 100. Right now, Brenton Strange anchors the group as the top option, while Quinton Morris handles the number two blocking role after getting resigned. Hunter Long adds some receiving skills behind them. Looking ahead, both Morris and Long hit free agency next off season, and even Strange can need a new deal. The team also just released Johnny Munt, opening a roster spot for fresh talent. This year's tight end draft class stood out at the NFL Combine, though blocking ability fits best in offensive coordinator Liam Cohen's scheme. Adding a top 100 pick, now less the Jaguars build depth for 2027. Using the rookie time to develop without pressure.
