Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Jets spent their marquee pick on Ty Simpson, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If Fano pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Harvey.

They will regret leaving offensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at fair value. More want than need.
Pick16 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
In the 16th pick they get a passer to set the clock by. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
They took Chris Johnson at par in pick 33, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch in No. 44 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103 Rnd4 Caden Curry
They reached a country mile for Caden Curry at slot 103, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick175 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
Fair-plus on J'Mari Taylor, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jalen Stroman in the 178th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick192 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
By-the-book stuff, Oscar Delp at pick No. 192 squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick206 Rnd6 Logan Fano
A wild overpay on Logan Fano in the 206th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick209 Rnd6 Bobby Jamison-Travis
Bobby Jamison-Travis at No. 209 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick218 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
A tidy bit of business in pick 218, where Sawyer Robertson graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick242 Rnd7 DJ Harvey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing DJ Harvey in the 242nd overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
