Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Jets' one glaring miss is edge rusher, a need they left exactly as they found it.

The cost of the Cooper Jr. reach is exactly the players who went right after him. On value alone, Johnson makes the weekend a net positive. Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 2 they get the heartbeat of the defense at fair value.
Pick16 Rnd1 Omar Cooper Jr.
In the 16th pick they get a No. 1 receiver, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Ty Simpson
A tidy little value on Ty Simpson in pick 33, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Chris Johnson for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
