Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets let Prysock fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The Jets spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Ephesians Prysock, the No. 184 name on the board, in pick No. 206. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher went begging. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 2nd overall pick they get the heartbeat of the defense at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick16 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
A tidy bit of business in the 16th pick, where Jeremiyah Love graded well above the range. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
A want over a need in Round 2, Pick 1: Sonny Styles adds a linebacker while edge rusher keeps waiting.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at No. 44 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103 Rnd4 Deion Burks
No drama and no debate, Deion Burks went about where he belonged in slot 103. It fills a real need, too.
Pick175 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
They paid sticker price for DJ Campbell in pick 175, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick178 Rnd5 Zane Durant
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 5 slot with a little surplus value in Zane Durant. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick192 Rnd6 Dae'Quan Wright
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dae'Quan Wright at pick No. 192 is the proof. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick206 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock in Round 6, Pick 27 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
Nothing to complain about; Sawyer Robertson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick218 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
Thaddeus Dixon at No. 218 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Zavion Thomas
They will replay Zavion Thomas at the 242nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
