Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureA+
The Jets bled value on every deal, hence the C.

The Jets put a flag in the ground for Cade Klubnik, 50 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. That Downs pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 16th overall pick they get a downhill hitter at safety, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick21 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In pick 21 they get a difference-maker at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Cade Klubnik
Cade Klubnik at No. 44 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick53 Rnd2 Taurean York
Taurean York in Round 2, Pick 21 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
