Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureF
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Jets a C+.

The Sam M'Pemba selection is the head-turner. The Jets reached 105 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Landing Stowers that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

So much rides on Arvell Reese that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 16 they get a three-down second-level presence, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick18 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
No drama and no debate, Cashius Howell went about where he belonged in slot 18. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick26 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In the 26th overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in pick 43 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
A straight-up fair deal on Jake Slaughter at Round 2, Pick 13, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick52 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick53 Rnd2 Caleb Tiernan
They paid a round early for Caleb Tiernan in slot 53, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kamari Ramsey
Nice patience on Kamari Ramsey, who had no business lasting to the 55th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe at pick No. 59 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62 Rnd2 CJ Allen
CJ Allen at the 62nd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick80 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick84 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
They took Darrell Jackson Jr. at par in pick 84, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick86 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in No. 86 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
Value with a capital V on Malik Muhammad in Round 3, Pick 23, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Somehow Eli Stowers was still sitting there in slot 89, and they pounced on premier tight end value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick103 Rnd4 Joe Royer
Nothing to complain about; Joe Royer went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick104 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on D'Angelo Ponds. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
By-the-book stuff, Bishop Fitzgerald at pick No. 108 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick113 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch at Round 4, Pick 13 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 Caden Curry
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Caden Curry in the 116th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick120 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford in the Round 4 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick121 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
No edge and no loss on Keylan Rutledge in the 121st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd4 DJ Campbell
This one needs a full-page explanation: DJ Campbell in No. 130, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
Steal is underselling it; CJ Daniels at the 149th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154 Rnd5 Brenen Thompson
Brenen Thompson at the 154th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at pick No. 158 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick161 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Eric McAlister at pick 161 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol in slot 168 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick172 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in Round 5, Pick 34 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick173 Rnd5 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick175 Rnd5 Quinten Joyner
The board had cheaper options than Quinten Joyner at No. 175, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick178 Rnd5 Red Murdock
They let Red Murdock come to them and pounced at the 178th pick. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick181 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
A conviction pick on Raylen Wilson at Round 6, Pick 2 that the board grades a round light. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick192 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
They left a pile of value on the table to take Daevin Hobbs this early at slot 192. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick199 Rnd6 Keyron Crawford
Keyron Crawford in the 199th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick206 Rnd6 J. Michael Sturdivant
A reach for J. Michael Sturdivant in the Round 6 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick209 Rnd6 Xavian Sorey Jr.
Xavian Sorey Jr. at pick 209 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick213 Rnd6 Tony Rojas
They talked themselves into Tony Rojas at pick No. 213, and the board did not agree. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick214 Rnd6 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby at pick 214 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick217 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They read the board right and Trey Zuhn III was the payoff at the 217th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick218 Rnd7 Gunner Stockton
Gunner Stockton in pick No. 218 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Joey Aguilar
Good price on Joey Aguilar in slot 224, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227 Rnd7 Kamran James
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kamran James. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick236 Rnd7 Mitchell Melton
They reached into another round for Mitchell Melton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick237 Rnd7 Clayton Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Clayton Smith well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick239 Rnd7 Demon Clowney
Value said wait; Demon Clowney in the 239th pick says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick242 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They paid sticker price for Micah Morris in the 242nd pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick249 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at pick No. 249 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick251 Rnd7 Khordae Sydnor
Khordae Sydnor at pick 251 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick252 Rnd7 Sam M'Pemba
They reached a country mile for Sam M'Pemba at Round 7, Pick 36, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Markis Deal
Markis Deal at No. 254 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jamari Lyons
Jamari Lyons in the 255th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Haynes King
Circle this one: Haynes King at slot 257 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
