Draft Grade — Jets
Overall
B+
ValueB
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Jets fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. The real work happened on the phones. The Jets fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.
The Rushing pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Okunlola at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
They went 8 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Leonard Moore
In pick No. 6 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick16
Rnd1
KJ Bolden
In the 16th overall pick they get a centerfielder for the defense at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24
Rnd1
David Stone
In pick 24 they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Cam Coleman
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Cam Coleman for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick44
Rnd2
Chris Peal
Nothing to complain about; Chris Peal went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86
Rnd3
Samson Okunlola
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Samson Okunlola in the 86th pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87
Rnd3
Kade Pieper
No drama and no debate, Kade Pieper went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 23. It fills a real need, too.
Pick88
Rnd3
Faletau Satuala
Fair-plus on Faletau Satuala, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100
Rnd3
Jayden Maiava
Jayden Maiava in pick 100 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick103
Rnd4
LJ Martin
They took LJ Martin at par in slot 103, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick111
Rnd4
Devin McCuin
The board had cheaper options than Devin McCuin at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124
Rnd4
Ty Benefield
Ty Benefield at the 124th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128
Rnd4
A.J. Harris
A.J. Harris in pick No. 128 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139
Rnd5
Mateen Ibirogba
Mateen Ibirogba at Round 5, Pick 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick140
Rnd5
Walker Lyons
They paid sticker price for Walker Lyons in No. 140, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick144
Rnd5
Elijah Paige
They jumped the gun on Elijah Paige, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149
Rnd5
CJ Bailey
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on CJ Bailey. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175
Rnd5
Jacob Ponton
A tidy little value on Jacob Ponton in the 175th overall pick, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178
Rnd5
Payton Pierce
By-the-book stuff, Payton Pierce at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick192
Rnd6
Jake Guarnera
Nice patience on Jake Guarnera, who had no business lasting to pick 192. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick202
Rnd6
Elinneus Davis
No edge and no loss on Elinneus Davis in the 202nd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick206
Rnd6
Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro at slot 206 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick210
Rnd6
La'khi Roland
A straight-up fair deal on La'khi Roland at pick No. 210, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick218
Rnd7
Elijah Rushing
Elijah Rushing at No. 218 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick227
Rnd7
Jay'Vion Cole
They read the board right and Jay'Vion Cole was the payoff at slot 227. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick234
Rnd7
Addison Nichols
No drama and no debate, Addison Nichols went about where he belonged in pick No. 234. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick240
Rnd7
Stephiylan Green
Stephiylan Green at the 240th overall pick is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick242
Rnd7
Evan Stewart
Evan Stewart in the Round 7 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
