Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB
The Jets fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

Nobody had Gino Garcia this high, and it is not close. The Jets reached 91 spots to get him at slot 207.

The Emmanwori value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 12th pick they get a red-zone target to build around. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at slot 42 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
They read the board right and Josh Conerly Jr. was the payoff at the Round 2 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaiah Bond. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Fair-plus on Jordan Phillips, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at pick 145 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jack Kiser in pick 162, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick186 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at No. 186 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Gino Garcia
A wild overpay on Gino Garcia in pick No. 207, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
