Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
More right than wrong for the Jets, and a B- to prove it.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Jets walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Briningstool. Job largely done: safety settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In slot 19 they get a downhill hitter at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in pick 56 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick83 Rnd3 Clay Webb
They paid sticker price for Clay Webb in the 83rd overall pick, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick93 Rnd3 Dasan McCullough
By-the-book stuff, Dasan McCullough at the 93rd pick squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick115 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
No drama and no debate, Rylie Mills went about where he belonged in pick No. 115. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Fair-plus on Jonah Monheim, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179 Rnd6 Moose Muhammad III
Nothing to complain about; Moose Muhammad III went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jake Briningstool
The board had Jake Briningstool higher than Round 6, Pick 32, and the tight end fell to them anyway. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
