Draft Grade — Jets

FutureB-
The jury is out on the Jets. For now, C+. They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Preston Hodge, 166 picks early at slot 103.
They banked enough surplus on Keenan III to cover a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
The Allen pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, edge rusher and other spots still on the board. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.
So much rides on Arvell Reese that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In the 2nd overall pick they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. Need was not the driver here.
Pick16
Rnd1
CJ Allen
A surprising call. With quarterback, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 16 on CJ Allen, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick33
Rnd2
Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange in Round 2, Pick 1 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick44
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
Circle this one: Olaivavega Ioane at the Round 2 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103
Rnd4
Preston Hodge
This one needs a full-page explanation: Preston Hodge in pick 103, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175
Rnd5
Jerry Wilson
They reached into another round for Jerry Wilson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick178
Rnd5
Bryce Boettcher
Bryce Boettcher slipping to the 178th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick192
Rnd6
Isaac Smith
Value said wait; Isaac Smith in No. 192 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick206
Rnd6
Ceyair Wright
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ceyair Wright well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick209
Rnd6
Sage Ryan
Sage Ryan at the 209th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218
Rnd7
Jaylin Davies
A big swing on Jaylin Davies at pick 218, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick242
Rnd7
Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III in Round 7, Pick 26 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
