Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Jets a B-.

The Jets put a flag in the ground for Derek Wingo, 84 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 11th pick they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in slot 75 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
No drama and no debate, Jalen McMillan went about where he belonged in the 111th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at No. 148 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Christian Mahogany
By-the-book stuff, Christian Mahogany at pick No. 189 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick232 Rnd7 Montrell Johnson Jr.
They talked themselves into Montrell Johnson Jr. at pick 232, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick255 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Value said wait; Josh Proctor in the 255th overall pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 Derek Wingo
Derek Wingo at the 256th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
