Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 7, Pick 26: the Jets steal Fuller and grade out a B.

The curious call sets the tone. With quarterback and running back still glaring, the Jets used the 89th overall pick on Deontae Lawson, a linebacker they were not exactly short of. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They banked enough surplus on Fuller to cover a lot of smaller sins. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In No. 16 they get a matchup problem out wide. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 CJ Allen
No edge and no loss on CJ Allen in pick 33; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick59 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A quiet steal in slot 59: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Deontae Lawson at linebacker with quarterback and running back open.
Pick103 Rnd4 Logan Jones
The board had Logan Jones higher than Round 4, Pick 3, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Chandler Rivers
Chandler Rivers slipping to the 106th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick140 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
Fair-plus on Chris McClellan, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179 Rnd5 Febechi Nwaiwu
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 179, where Febechi Nwaiwu graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick228 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
They read the board right and Zavion Thomas was the payoff at slot 228. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick242 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
Andre Fuller at No. 242 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
