Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesD FutureA
The Jets lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

The Jets put a flag in the ground for Jayden Higgins, 31 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Reed pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

If Jayden Higgins and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Jayden Higgins
In pick No. 25 they get a No. 1 receiver, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
Tyleik Williams in slot 42 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick58 Rnd2 Ozzy Trapilo
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ozzy Trapilo in No. 58, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
Pick73 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Elijah Arroyo. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick110 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
Good price on Lathan Ransom in the 110th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in the 145th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 162 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
A straight-up fair deal on Jack Kiser at pick 186, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
They let Jaylen Reed come to them and pounced at the 207th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
