The Jets drew a line under the quarterback search with Mestemaker: B+. The search is over. The Jets handed the keys to Drew Mestemaker, and the whole operation now runs on his development. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.
The cost of the Johnson reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.
Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Drew Mestemaker
In the Round 1 slot they get a franchise quarterback, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20
Rnd1
Zabien Brown
In slot 20 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at the 33rd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick71
Rnd3
Williams Nwaneri
Williams Nwaneri at No. 71 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103
Rnd4
Corey Myrick
Corey Myrick at the 103rd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick114
Rnd4
Jayden Jackson
No edge and no loss on Jayden Jackson in pick 114; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick175
Rnd5
Jaleel Johnson
Jaleel Johnson at Round 5, Pick 37 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick177
Rnd5
C.J. Fite
C.J. Fite in pick No. 177 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick178
Rnd5
Nyziah Hunter
By-the-book stuff, Nyziah Hunter at the 178th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206
Rnd6
Elijah Rushing
Elijah Rushing at the 206th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick210
Rnd6
Elinneus Davis
Elinneus Davis at pick No. 210 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick216
Rnd6
Maraad Watson
Good price on Maraad Watson in Round 6, Pick 37, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick218
Rnd7
Tree Babalade
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tree Babalade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick225
Rnd7
Noah Carter
They reached into another round for Noah Carter, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick231
Rnd7
Stephiylan Green
A reasonable price with a little left over, Stephiylan Green in pick 231. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick242
Rnd7
Charles Jagusah
Charles Jagusah at No. 242 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
