Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Jets spent Round 5, Pick 37 on Fernando Carmona, a name most had 41 spots down the list. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They will answer for taking linebacker early while interior defensive lineman went begging. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 2 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick 16 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Sonny Styles adds a linebacker and leaves interior defensive lineman untouched.
Pick44 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at slot 44 is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
They paid a round early for Trinidad Chambliss in the 103rd overall pick, more than the board wanted. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Fernando Carmona
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Fernando Carmona. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick178 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Eric McAlister at the 178th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It fills a real need, too.
Pick192 Rnd6 Quinten Joyner
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinten Joyner. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick206 Rnd6 Isaac Smith
A reach for Isaac Smith in No. 206; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218 Rnd7 Kevin Jennings
A slide stopped in slot 218, with Kevin Jennings worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick235 Rnd7 Ethan O'Connor
Value with a capital V on Ethan O'Connor in Round 7, Pick 19, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
By-the-book stuff, Will Kacmarek at pick 242 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
