Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) with energies exceeding 10^19 eV are believed to originate from extragalactic environments, potentially associated with relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei (AGN). Among AGN, blazars, particularly those detected at very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-rays, are promising candidates for UHECR acceleration and high-energy neutrino production. In this work, we investigate three blazar sources: AP Librae, 1H 1914--194, and PKS 0735+178, using multiwavelength spectral energy distribution (SED) modeling. These sources span a range of synchrotron peak classes and redshifts, providing a diverse context to explore the physical conditions in relativistic jets. We employ both leptonic and lepto-hadronic models to describe their broadband emission from radio to TeV energies, aiming to constrain key jet parameters such as magnetic field strength, emission region size, and particle energy distributions. Particular attention is given to evaluating their potential as sources of UHECRs and high-energy neutrinos. Our results shed light on the complex interplay between particle acceleration mechanisms, radiative processes, and multi-messenger signatures in extreme astrophysical environments.
