Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Gulbin: B.

Somebody in pick 218 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Jets sat still while Matt Gulbin, the No. 178 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Nussmeier has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In pick 2 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In No. 16 they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 R Mason Thomas
R Mason Thomas in the 33rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick44 Rnd2 Garrett Nussmeier
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Garrett Nussmeier well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jaishawn Barham
They went early on Jaishawn Barham in slot 103, and the value did not follow. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick175 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at Round 5, Pick 37 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at pick No. 178 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick192 Rnd6 Toriano Pride Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Toriano Pride Jr. a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black at No. 206 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright at the 209th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick218 Rnd7 Matt Gulbin
Steal is underselling it; Matt Gulbin at Round 7, Pick 2 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick242 Rnd7 Miller Moss
Miller Moss is a better player than slot 242 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
