Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 6 slot lands the Jets a B+, Holker and all.

You build a draft on nights like this. Dallin Holker had no business being available in Round 6, Pick 9, and the Jets did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up. Adding David Bakhtiari by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the safety spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They paid sticker price for Kool-Aid McKinstry in No. 25, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
You do not let a quarterback like J.J. McCarthy reach Round 2, Pick 9 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins at pick 58 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at pick No. 72 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick111 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Fair-plus on Zak Zinter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Isaiah Adams
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Isaiah Adams. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick184 Rnd6 Dallin Holker
The board fumbled Dallin Holker all the way to slot 184, and they scooped it up. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
They barely believed it either: Dwight McGlothern still on the board at the 185th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick256 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas at Round 7, Pick 36 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Tayvion Robinson
Taking Tayvion Robinson in pick No. 257 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
