Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Moore headlines a B weekend for the Jets.

The search is over. The Jets handed the keys to Dante Moore, and the whole operation now runs on his development. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Getting Gray where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Reaching for Ross left real value on the table behind him.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In the 2nd overall pick they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jordan Ross
In pick No. 16 they get a problem off the edge, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Ellis Robinson IV
They barely believed it either: Ellis Robinson IV still on the board at slot 33. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44 Rnd2 Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb in the 44th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick103 Rnd4 Evan Tengesdahl
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Evan Tengesdahl graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Ezra Christensen
Ezra Christensen is a better player than pick 175 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178 Rnd5 Tao Johnson
Circle this one: Tao Johnson at Round 5, Pick 40 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick192 Rnd6 T.J. Moore
A reach on T.J. Moore in No. 192; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Christian Gray
Christian Gray at pick 206 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick210 Rnd6 Elinneus Davis
A tidy little value on Elinneus Davis in No. 210, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick218 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
Brett Norfleet at the 218th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick242 Rnd7 Malachi Nelson
They jumped the gun on Malachi Nelson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
