Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Jets: B-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Jets took RJ Oben a full 49 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Johnson.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the 7th pick they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. at pick 42 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick73 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in slot 73 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick110 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson is a better player than No. 110 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 145th overall pick, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick162 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
A reach for Ty Robinson in Round 5, Pick 24; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick186 Rnd6 RJ Oben
Value said wait; RJ Oben in slot 186 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick207 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
The board had cheaper options than R.J. Mickens at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
