Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A passer of the future in Nussmeier, and a B, for the Jets.

The Jets spent the pick that matters most on Garrett Nussmeier, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. That Omosigho pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Garrett Nussmeier
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get their guy under center for the next decade. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker in pick 36 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jeremiah Wilson
No edge and no loss on Jeremiah Wilson in No. 104; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139 Rnd5 Samuel Omosigho
They let Samuel Omosigho come to them and pounced at pick No. 139. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick182 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Payton at slot 182 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Smith Snowden
No drama and no debate, Smith Snowden went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick209 Rnd6 Kelby Collins
They took Kelby Collins at par in the 209th pick, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210 Rnd6 A'Marion Peterson
A'Marion Peterson in the 210th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick251 Rnd7 Austin Siereveld
Austin Siereveld at Round 7, Pick 35 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Ethan Onianwa
They paid sticker price for Ethan Onianwa in the 253rd pick, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
