The Jets drew a line under the quarterback search with Ward: F. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Jets started one anyway for Fadil Diggs, 87 picks ahead of schedule.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Cam Ward is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up. The Noel steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.
There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Cam Ward
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick14
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 14th overall pick they get a true top target at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick42
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 42 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick75
Rnd3
Jake Majors
Jake Majors in Round 3, Pick 11 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99
Rnd3
Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at pick 99 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick109
Rnd4
Shemar Turner
They jumped the gun on Shemar Turner, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick112
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
A clean, defensible pick in the 112th overall pick with a little surplus value in Smael Mondon Jr.. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick116
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at pick No. 116 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick138
Rnd4
Jaylin Noel
They robbed the room for Jaylin Noel here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick146
Rnd5
Fadil Diggs
They reached a country mile for Fadil Diggs at Round 5, Pick 7, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick157
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 157 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick188
Rnd6
Ben Sauls
They will replay Ben Sauls at the 188th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick209
Rnd6
Antwane Wells Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Antwane Wells Jr. at No. 209 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
