A franchise passer in Reed headlines a D weekend for the Jets.

The war room fell hard for Isaac Rex, and it showed at pick No. 232: 303 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Whatever Austin Reed becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Austin Reed
In pick 11 they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Isaiah Adams
They left a pile of value on the table to take Isaiah Adams this early at the 75th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Storm Duck
Storm Duck at the Round 4 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte at pick No. 148 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick189 Rnd6 Barryn Sorrell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Barryn Sorrell in No. 189, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Isaac Rex
A wild overpay on Isaac Rex in slot 232, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick255 Rnd7 Emory Jones
A big swing on Emory Jones at slot 255, well ahead of any board in the building. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick256 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tahj Washington well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
