Round 4, Pick 104) James Sample (S, Louisville)

Reader Grade

With 50% of those polled ranking the selection of James Sample as an “A” it is tough to think otherwise. Missing out on a true majority (51%) brings it down to an “A-.” Free safety was a position of need and the Jaguars waited until round four to address it.

Daniel Lago

“Sample is considered by some the best coverage safety in the draft, which is exactly what the Jaguars need in the back end.”

Luke Sims

“James Sample may be an upgrade, but he’s an unproven player. The guy only has one season of starting in the college ranks under his belt.”
