Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 42 lands the Jets a B-, Loveland and all.

The one they had to fix is still broken. The Jets left quarterback untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

On value alone, Loveland makes the weekend a net positive. They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In slot 7 they get a building block for the line at fair value.
Pick42 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
A tight end of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick73 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A tidy bit of business in No. 73, where Demetrius Knight Jr. graded well above the range. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick110 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
They paid sticker price for Billy Bowman Jr. in Round 4, Pick 8, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
