Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA
Quarterback settled, Simpson in the fold, and a D for the Jets.

The Jets torched the value chart for Tim Keenan III, taking him 38 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They have staked the next five years on Ty Simpson, which is the only story that really matters here.

The Williams value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
Ty Simpson at No. 3 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick29 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 29 they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Jeremiyah Love
Jeremiyah Love at the 33rd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick34 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Good price on Caleb Banks in pick 34, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick70 Rnd3 Arvell Reese
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Arvell Reese at slot 70 is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick101 Rnd4 Antonio Williams
Steal is underselling it; Antonio Williams at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III in pick No. 112 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick140 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
A reach on DeMonte Capehart in pick 140; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick183 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
They did well to land Xavier Nwankpa in the Round 6 slot, just ahead of his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick200 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Earnest Greene III in the 200th pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick201 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at No. 201 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick236 Rnd7 Amare Campbell
Amare Campbell in slot 236 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick256 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
Nice patience on Brett Norfleet, who had no business lasting to Round 7, Pick 39. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick257 Rnd7 Kayin Lee
Kayin Lee at the 257th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
