Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jets, and a B to prove it.

The Jets' one glaring miss is quarterback, a need they left exactly as they found it.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
Rueben Bain Jr. in the 2nd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
Fair-plus on Carnell Tate, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
