Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets robbed the room for West. Final grade: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how CJ West got past him. The Jets do not have to explain a thing at slot 207. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In pick No. 7 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon at Round 2, Pick 10 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick73 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
By-the-book stuff, Elijah Arroyo at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaylin Noel in slot 110. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They took Logan Brown at par in the 145th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162 Rnd5 Tommi Hill
Nothing to complain about; Tommi Hill went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Oronde Gadsden II. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick207 Rnd6 CJ West
They robbed the room for CJ West here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
