Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Jets: B-.

You can draft well and still miss the point. The Jets did plenty of tidy work and somehow never got around to running back, which was the need that mattered most.

They banked enough surplus on Klubnik to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Bailey pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 David Bailey
In the 2nd overall pick they get juice off the edge, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick16 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In slot 16 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Christen Miller
No drama and no debate, Christen Miller went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 1. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick44 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
They paid sticker price for Germie Bernard in pick 44, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cade Klubnik at the 103rd pick is the proof. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick175 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
A tidy little value on Pat Coogan in No. 175, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick178 Rnd5 Gracen Halton
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 178 with a little surplus value in Gracen Halton. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
Trebor Pena at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick206 Rnd6 Barion Brown
Barion Brown in the 206th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jerry Wilson
No edge and no loss on Jerry Wilson in pick 209; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick218 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
A straight-up fair deal on Isaac Smith at slot 218, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick242 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
They took Will Kacmarek at par in No. 242, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
