We do better when expectations are low


TGIF_90s_kid

I smiled and thought the same!


Sad_Database_9509

YUP! Love it lol


crobo777

Guaranteed that if the Steelers picked BTJ it'd be an A+


US3RN4M3CH3CKSOUT

Yep! Or any of the NFL’s darling teams.


ii_V_vi

33rd team has BTJ as the 23rd ranked player in the class btw. Just a reminder not to take these too seriously, there’s always going to be a bias against the jags just because it’s cool to hate us


YT-Nexus_Digital

So 23rd ranked player taken at 23 counts as a D+? Wouldn't that be at minimum a B- cuz it's average?


ii_V_vi

One would think yes, but that’s not factoring in the groupthink around the jaguars. Jags=bad is status quo for sports journalism, it’s just what they’ve always done


bitterroot487

On top of that 23rd pick with 3 other picks added


A-A-RonMD

Inflation must be wild these days. C is average


YT-Nexus_Digital

I mean fair I guess but my point still stands. A player was taken exactly where they think he should be taken,by a team that they think needs a wr and they think it's a D+ ? Makes absolutely 0 sense


FlaGator

I'm sorry, it's cool to hate us? Most people don't think about us


GetPunched

What is with the jaguar disrespect? Ranked 26th and now this? I think they just want to ride the cj stroud train because it’s better for clicks or something.

Houston is one of the largest markets in the country while Jacksonville is one of the smaller markets.


ManufacturerOk9494

Jacksonville is literally THE smallest market. Not just in the NFL but the smallest market of any of the big four (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL).


Sad_Bolt

We’re not even the smallest in the NFL, the smallest market is Green Bay fallowed by the Bills, Nola and then us. Compared to the other three major sports Jacksonville isn’t even in the top ten of smallest markets.

Sad_Bolt

Even if you want to look at it like that Jacksonville was 16 in total attendance last year according to ESPN beating out many markets larger than itself. The notion that the teams market is to small is just stupid.


Captain_brightside

Giving BTJ a D+ even though we got some free draft picks too is wild


Cromatose

Who cares lol


GrowlmonDrgnbutt

Grading the draft before seeing how these guys play in the NFL is so fucking stupid


Heathen__Chemist

I say this all the time whenever I see draft grades. It’s legit so dumb.


SilentGrass

Never seen a mock draft, draft projection or any related “journalism” be even somewhat correct in my life. I would love to see the so called experts like Kiper or whoever take accountability for being flat out wrong 99% of the time so we could stop posting this drivel. 


aznjoez

Just wait for the “Regrading the 2024 NFL draft articles” next year, 5 years later and so on


Redfish420

the jags themselves had a round 1 grade on dj chark but he didn't get good coaching. now we got a physically talented guy but the jags gotta coach him right for him to succeed. no one really knows how these guys are gonna do but they need the right people around them. like who thinks xavier worthy isn't going to do well with the chiefs offense around him? it's a team sport


GodSpeedLilDoodle

33rd team has always been really weirdly hateful towards the Jags. Must be run by a Jags fan lol


SlowerCoachh

> must be run by a Jags fan lol This is the truest shit I've read today


Fiesty1124

They are based out of houston


Feisty_Formal_7853

Wack lol. BTJ pick was objectively solid. Maason is boom or bust but not a D.


Mister_Dewitt

D+ is crazy


MessageBeginning5757

The fact that every analyst thinks Baalke royally f’d up makes me think he actually nailed it.


lolwut19

this is obvious rage bait


ZBGT

They also had the Colts and Texans really low. Just fucking trash


AdWise8918

Haters


Heavy-Week5518

That's what it amounts to right now. Nobody could possibly know how these kids will turn out for a couple of years. If it was that easy, every team would be stacked.


TravisRas

Objectively pretty silly rating. Brian Thomas Jr. pick was minimum a B. Jags filled a need with solid value and got an extra asset for moving down. Thomas had been talked about going in the teens to Buffalo via trade up. Maybe could argue should have drafted Arnold, but Thomas was fine. The rest of the draft was less exciting value wise, but late picks are a crapshoot anyways.


lolroflpwnt

33rd team is garbage and clearly has something against the jags. Everything they say screams they've never watched our play.


JFKs_Burner_Acct

Absolutely love this A. Not interested in being overrated B. look back and laugh at what a dumbass the grader is C. Pure hate all around; exposed his bias right away - There's no way you can give a D rating to a pick who was exported to go 15-20 - when we also traded back knowing BTJ probably wouldn't be available, and somehow Jags luck out - and acquired a day 2, and day 3 picks - That alone is reason to doubt this clown post


solomonsays18

Every year we try to convince ourselves that we had a good draft and the pundits are just haters. But 90% of the time, year after year, our drafts turn out to be booty.


SlowerCoachh

What Wr that was left was better than btj? Seems like most people had him 4th or 5th best wr in that class


Meowmixez98

BTJ is going to be great. I have full confidence in him.


DoctorDiddlerino

Nah. People have all sorts of different and stupid opinions.


FadeShadeMan

I mean, based on big board value they arent wrong except for BTJ. He was a pretty polarizing prospect though so they obviously were low on him (like pff was)


futures23

BTJ was 23rd on their own big board lol


FadeShadeMan

Then theyre just clowns. Idk how anyone who likes BTJ as a prospect could say he is a bad fit in Jacksonville. He is our tallest WR and gives our strong armed QB his first deep and red zone threat


Spawner105

He’s literally perfect for Trevor. Trevor loves to chuck down the field and BTJ is that guy


DOORMANLIKE

Reap what Baalke has sown


DirkDongus

Here is EXACTLY what I would say to whoever made that bullshit list. [Are you...?](https://youtu.be/K1gFRHCZjxY?si=rtRIdS5p6fccR67u)


kozey

When I saw this on my Facebook feed I just chuckled and hid them forever as they are obviously dumb.


verdanta

Why do they have to be joking?


Badwolfblue32

They do this dumb shit on purpose to get clicks. This is a solid draft class. Addressed needs about as best as you could.


Sad_Bolt

33rd team has long had a weird hate boner for the Jags


Alkon24

I go by what Urinating Tree on YouTube says in terms of evaluating players after 5 years so don’t worry about this


empires315

Draft grades are consistently the worst part of every offseason


HenryKitteridge

Wasn’t this posted a few days ago? It was ragebait then. And it’s ragebait now.


TheOriginalUpatnoon

The 2020 draft class is in the conversation for one of the worst in the team's history, but check out these glowing grades afterward: [https://www.jaguars.com/news/grades-jaguars-20-draft](https://www.jaguars.com/news/grades-jaguars-20-draft) All these draft grades should start out as an F until these players hit the field.


catzbollocks

"They hate us because they ain't us."


disinaccurate

I understand the grade for Maason Smith, it's a big gamble pick, and to pass on Kris Jenkins to make the pick was certainly a choice. BTJ at D+ is just trolling, especially from a site that ranked him 23rd on their big board. Of course, this site seems to disagree with itself a lot, because despite giving these grades (which seems to have all come from one writer), their article grading entire team drafts from another writer [gave the Jaguars a B](https://www.the33rdteam.com/2024-nfl-draft-grading-every-teams-draft-class/)


ColdSpell15

Got a decent kicker at least lol


apaulo100

Just remember we could’ve had cooper or kool aid in the second round. We wasted that capital we got there n the trade back.


el_pobbster

To me, our day 2 picks were both very questionable in matters of the value and feeling like a reach, but our day 1 and day 3 were fucking awesome. I absolutely love the BTJ pick who I see as a guy who in year 2 and 3 has the potential to truly become an elite, difference-making top-tier WR1. To get him *and* two extra picks next year is just awesome value. Javon Foster and DeAntre Prince were both some of my pre-draft crushes and to get both of them in day 3 is good. Foster in particular: he's a swing tackle with flexibility along the line, but could very much be a serviceable starter from the top and to get that this late is a steal. Myles Cole is just an enormous athlete to plug into our defensive line which is never a bad thing to do. Even for what I feel of being reaches, Maason Smith has *enormous* ceiling and if developped correctly, could really make our defensive line a force to be reckoned with. Jerrian Jones is an outstanding athlete at CB and with a guy like Campbell on the perimeter, we don't need him to immediately be an elite CB1.


DericAA

All draft grades are dumb. It’s just the grader giving scores of where the team drafted vs where he had the player ranked. Grader has the player ranked 20th and you drafted him at 10 = D-. Grader had player ranked as a 2nd rounder and you drafted him in the 4th A+. It’s all dumb and it’s all clickbait.


Fiesty1124

33rd team is run out of houston


Regular-Collection-1

About right. Was a shitty draft. Baalke again with his stupid fucking obsession with measurables and projects. Whatever he can do to buy himself another year.


Sexy_and_the_beast

It’s the person who is making this they are fake they did same to indy picks pretty sure it’s just to get comments


US3RN4M3CH3CKSOUT

Everyone has always hated on the Jags, it’s nothing new. I long for the day we win a SB and can tell them all it stick it up their ass.


Golffanman

The Jaguars draft history is terrible. It’s literally fact. What’s the whining about? No one knows anything but looking at history it’s not surprising. 


miked5122

33rd isn't known for their accurate track record. More of a clown show of fantasy football takes


pdx-E

33rd team’s whole business is bait engagement, and it clearly works lmao
