Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Mendoza headlines a B weekend for the Jets.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Jordyn Tyson, the No. 21 name on the board, stolen at Round 7, Pick 26. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Fernando Mendoza is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Leaving safety unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick No. 2 they get the face of the franchise. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick16 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the 16th overall pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Arvell Reese
They will replay Arvell Reese at pick No. 33 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick50 Rnd2 David Bailey
Taking David Bailey in the Round 2 slot is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Kenyon Sadiq
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Kenyon Sadiq in pick 103, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick118 Rnd4 Mansoor Delane
They barely believed it either: Mansoor Delane still on the board at Round 4, Pick 18. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at the 128th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick140 Rnd4 Spencer Fano
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 140th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick179 Rnd5 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at slot 179 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick222 Rnd7 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor in No. 222 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at pick 228 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jordyn Tyson
They robbed the room for Jordyn Tyson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
