Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

There is a lot to like until you notice quarterback is still a hole. The Jets never got to the one that mattered most.

That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They are betting Rosengarten proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 10 they get an anchor for the offensive line, even if it was a touch early.
Pick72 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Johnny Wilson at the 72nd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson at Round 5, Pick 11 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick187 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
They liked Roger Rosengarten enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
A straight-up fair deal on Fentrell Cypress II at the 229th pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick255 Rnd7 Jeremy James
Nice patience on Jeremy James, who had no business lasting to slot 255. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry slid further than he should have, and pick No. 256 is lovely value for the linebacker. A minor itch, scratched.
