The Jets fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-. Whoever sat across the table from the Jets should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.
The Perkins Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback and offensive lineman. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.
The Reese value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. If Crawford pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
It is a haul that will look even better come September.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
A slide stopped in pick No. 24, with Arvell Reese worth more than the price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick25
Rnd1
Makai Lemon
In the 25th pick they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick28
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In slot 28 they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33
Rnd2
Kayden McDonald
The board had Kayden McDonald higher than the 33rd overall pick, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick38
Rnd2
Kamari Ramsey
By-the-book stuff, Kamari Ramsey at pick 38 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in Round 2, Pick 8 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick49
Rnd2
Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick60
Rnd2
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at No. 60 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick94
Rnd3
Harold Perkins Jr.
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 94 on Harold Perkins Jr. with quarterback and offensive lineman unsolved.
Pick124
Rnd4
Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg in pick No. 124 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick209
Rnd6
Keyron Crawford
A big swing on Keyron Crawford at Round 6, Pick 30, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick242
Rnd7
Will Kacmarek
They paid sticker price for Will Kacmarek in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick244
Rnd7
London Humphreys
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing London Humphreys in the 244th pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
