Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA+
The Jets lost the trade table, and the B- tells the story.

The Kamran James pick is the one that will follow the Jets into the fall. They took him 43 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will answer for taking linebacker early while running back went begging. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In pick 12 they get a No. 1 receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick16 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick20 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the 20th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
A want over a need in Round 2, Pick 1: Sonny Styles adds a linebacker while running back keeps waiting.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
No drama and no debate, Dillon Thieneman went about where he belonged in the 44th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at slot 103 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
They paid sticker price for Trinidad Chambliss in pick No. 112, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick175 Rnd5 Charles Jagusah
No edge and no loss on Charles Jagusah in the 175th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick178 Rnd5 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson in slot 178 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 Jaren Kanak
Jaren Kanak at No. 192 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick206 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
They took Robert Spears-Jennings at par in Round 6, Pick 27, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick210 Rnd6 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick218 Rnd7 Kamran James
They talked themselves into Kamran James at pick 218, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Hall at the 242nd pick, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
