Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets robbed the room for Sauls. Final grade: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ben Sauls had no business being available in No. 186, and the Jets did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Every board in the league had James lower, and that gap is the story.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 7th pick they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at the 42nd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at Round 4, Pick 8 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 James Burnip
James Burnip at pick 145 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick156 Rnd5 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at slot 156 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186 Rnd6 Ben Sauls
Somehow Ben Sauls was still sitting there in pick No. 186, and they pounced on premier specialist value. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick207 Rnd6 Shemar James
Shemar James at No. 207 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A minor itch, scratched.
