Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
The Jets did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Isaac Rex in slot 254, a good 64 spots before the room expected him. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

On value alone, Watts makes the weekend a net positive. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
By-the-book stuff, Taliese Fuaga at pick 14 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick45 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at the 45th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
No edge and no loss on Malachi Corley in the 72nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
A running back of that caliber at pick No. 112 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in No. 144 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick187 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in slot 187 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
Ryan Watts in the Round 7 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick254 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
They left a pile of value on the table to take Isaac Rex this early at slot 254. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick257 Rnd7 Blake Watson
Blake Watson slid further than he should have, and the 257th overall pick is lovely value for the running back. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
