Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureC
The phones sank the Jets this weekend: D.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Jets reached some 31 spots for Cade Klubnik, and value like that does not grow back. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Thompson steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In pick 2 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick7 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
Jeremiyah Love at slot 7 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenyon Sadiq at Round 2, Pick 1. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in the 44th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick96 Rnd3 Cade Klubnik
They reached into another round for Cade Klubnik, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick103 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Value said wait; Keylan Rutledge in the 103rd overall pick says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Dae'Quan Wright
By-the-book stuff, Dae'Quan Wright at the 175th pick squarely in line with his ranking. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick192 Rnd6 Brenen Thompson
The board fumbled Brenen Thompson all the way to slot 192, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jimmy Rolder
Good price on Jimmy Rolder in pick No. 209, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick242 Rnd7 Cole Payton
A quarterback of that caliber at No. 242 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
