Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in slot 145: the Jets steal Gabriel and grade out a B-.

The board owed the Jets one, and it paid up: Dillon Gabriel, the No. 125 name on the board, sitting there at pick 145 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A tight end of that caliber at pick No. 42 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick73 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
A reasonable price with a little left over, Elic Ayomanor in Round 3, Pick 9. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jordan Phillips at the 118th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
They robbed the room for Dillon Gabriel here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick162 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Mitchell Evans in pick 162. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick186 Rnd6 CJ West
They paid sticker price for CJ West in slot 186, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick207 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Steal is underselling it; Upton Stout at the 207th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick218 Rnd7 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in Round 7, Pick 2 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
