Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureB
Larceny in the 228th overall pick lands the Jets a C+, Cameron and all.

When a board-topper like Josh Cameron slides to the 228th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Jets did not. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

They will need Perkins Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Jets indulged a want in Perkins Jr. while a need in edge rusher and safety stayed open.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In pick No. 12 they get protection for the quarterback, reach and all. A real need, handled.
Pick16 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
No edge and no loss on Kayden McDonald in the 16th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick23 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. More want than need.
Pick33 Rnd2 Chris Brazzell II
Chris Brazzell II in pick 33 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dontay Corleone
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dontay Corleone well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick98 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
They paid a round early for Nicholas Singleton in No. 98, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
You do not let an offensive lineman like Chase Bisontis reach slot 99 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Harold Perkins Jr. in the 103rd pick leaves edge rusher and safety for later.
Pick140 Rnd4 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at the Round 4 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick179 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
They did well to land Domani Jackson in the 179th pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 Josh Cameron
Josh Cameron in slot 228 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Jaren Kanak
A slide stopped in the 242nd overall pick, with Jaren Kanak worth more than the price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
