The Jacksonville Jaguars were one of the most eventful teams in the 2026 NFL Draft, making 10 selections in the draft, with analysts having polarizing reviews of their selections.
Through two years, one thing has been clear: general manager James Gladstone isn’t afraid to be active moving up and down the board. We saw that with the major Travis Hunter trade last offseason, and there’ve been several other moves to that accord.
One of those was the trade down with the Detroit Lions last year, as the Jaguars
moved down 30 spots in the third round to acquire two extra third-rounders, sending back two sixth-rounders in return. That gave Jacksonville two extra Day 2 picks to use at their disposal in the 2026 NFL Draft.
It was quite a value move for the Jaguars, especially when considering that they acquired one of those sixth-rounders in the Roy Robertson-Harris trade with the Seattle Seahawks back in 2024.
With all the picks having conveyed now, let’s look back at those pair of moves and see how the Jaguars fared.
Original terms for the Roy Robertson-Harris trade from the Jaguars
Seattle Seahawks receive: DT Roy Robertson-Harris
Jacksonville Jaguars receive: 2026 sixth-round pick (No. 213 overall)
What did the Jaguars do with the draft pick from the Roy Robertson-Harris trade?
The Jaguars used the draft pick in a Day 2 trade during the 2025 NFL Draft. They sent picks 70, 182, and the pick from Robertson-Harris to the Lions for pick 102 in 2025 and two 2026 third-round picks.
The Jaguars ended up using the No. 102 pick with a fourth-round pick to move up for guard Wyatt Milum at No. 89 last year. Then, in this year’s draft, the Jaguars took defensive tackle Albert Regis at No. 81 and defensive back Jalen Huskey at No. 100.
What happened to the pick from the Roy Robertson-Harris trade?
That No. 213 overall pick in this year’s draft initially acquired in the Robertson-Harris trade flipped hands a couple more times. On draft day, the Lions moved that pick in a trade up, sending Nos. 181 and 213 to the Buffalo Bills for No. 168. Then, the Bills moved back again, sending the pick to the Chicago Bears for two seventh-rounders.
Chicago eventually took Georgia Tech defensive tackle Jordan van den Berg with that No. 213 pick.
How did Roy Robertson-Harris play for the Seahawks in 2024?
Robeertson-Harris played in eleven games for the Seahawks in 2024, recording 13 tackles. Not much to write home about.
Who won the Roy Robertson-Harris trade between Jaguars and Seahawks?
The Robertson-Harris trade made sense at the time, as the Jaguars were offloading veterans at the deadline and they got a sixth-round pick out of the deal. He spent 2025 with the Giants.
