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

The Jets ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They are betting Lindberg proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Ezra Cleveland gives the group a proven body among the projects.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 11 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
No drama and no debate, Brenden Rice went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jaden Hicks
A clean, defensible pick in Round 4, Pick 11 with a little surplus value in Jaden Hicks. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick187 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
A reach for Braiden McGregor in slot 187; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick193 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
Fair-plus on JD Bertrand, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick229 Rnd7 Kurtis Rourke
They liked Kurtis Rourke enough to skip the value, taking him in the 229th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235 Rnd7 Chad Lindberg
Chad Lindberg at pick 235 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick255 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele in the 255th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick256 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
Tanner McLachlan in the 256th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
