Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesC+ FutureB-
Allar is the Jets' new face under center. Grade: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Noah Thomas at the 139th pick, a reach of 98 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Drew Allar gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Daniels.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Drew Allar
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
Nyck Harbor at the 36th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick68 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Harold Perkins Jr. in No. 68, miles early. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick104 Rnd4 Roderick Kearney
Roderick Kearney at pick No. 104 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Noah Thomas
Noah Thomas at slot 139 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A real head-scratcher, Davison Igbinosun in the 143rd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick182 Rnd6 Dasan McCullough
They paid sticker price for Dasan McCullough in the 182nd pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jalon Daniels
The board fumbled Jalon Daniels all the way to No. 197, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jordan Hall
They paid a round early for Jordan Hall in slot 210, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick240 Rnd7 Kamran James
They jumped the gun on Kamran James, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick251 Rnd7 Courtland Ford
They reached a country mile for Courtland Ford at Round 7, Pick 35, and the board is aghast. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
