Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets let Ransom fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like Lathan Ransom slides to the 188th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Jets did not.

The Howard pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In pick No. 7 they get a weapon on the perimeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Will Howard
Will Howard in No. 42 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick92 Rnd3 Shemar Turner
A wild overpay on Shemar Turner in the 92nd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jack Bech
The board fumbled Jack Bech all the way to Round 4, Pick 8, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Devin Neal
A running back of that caliber at slot 157 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick188 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Steal is underselling it; Lathan Ransom at pick 188 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick209 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
You do not let a running back like Raheim Sanders reach the 209th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
