Draft Grade — Jets
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Wilson: A-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Jared Wilson, No. 138, roughly 34 picks past where he belonged.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The Jets paired the rookies with proven help, Jeffery Simmons leading the way. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In the end it comes back to Matthew Golden, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden in the 14th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick43 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They barely believed it either: Nick Emmanwori still on the board at pick No. 43. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick53 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
Fair-plus on JT Tuimoloau, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick84 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Nothing to complain about; Chris Paul Jr. went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick100 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
They let Gunnar Helm come to them and pounced at Round 3, Pick 36. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick110 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at pick 110 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at slot 138 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Hollin Pierce for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick157 Rnd5 Kobe King
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Kobe King in Round 5, Pick 19, plain and simple. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick162 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at pick No. 162 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick186 Rnd6 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald in pick 186 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
