Draft Grade — Jets
Overall
B
ValueB

TradesB-
FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Jets: B. Every other box got a look, but quarterback did not. The Jets will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.
They banked enough surplus on Slaughter to cover a lot of smaller sins. Safety is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In No. 7 they get a two-high chess piece. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick18
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In the 18th pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick38
Rnd2
Sonny Styles
They paid sticker price for Sonny Styles in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick47
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at the 47th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
