FutureC
The Jets land in the muddy middle: C+. The Jets spent real capital to be 99 picks early on Blake Watson, and the board is going to hold them to it.
The Jackson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.
So much rides on Olumuyiwa Fashanu that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick10
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 10 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Cooper DeJean in slot 49, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick62
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick111
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 11 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick135
Rnd4
Jaheim Bell
They talked themselves into Jaheim Bell at pick 135, and the board did not agree. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick138
Rnd5
Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the 138th pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick143
Rnd5
Khyree Jackson
Taking Khyree Jackson in pick 143 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick162
Rnd5
Javon Foster
Steal is underselling it; Javon Foster at the 162nd pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185
Rnd6
Logan Lee
A real head-scratcher, Logan Lee in the Round 6 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186
Rnd6
Blake Watson
Value said wait; Blake Watson in No. 186 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick226
Rnd7
Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at the 226th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick228
Rnd7
Ro Torrence
Circle this one: Ro Torrence at pick No. 228 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick250
Rnd7
Caedan Wallace
Caedan Wallace at Round 7, Pick 30 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick256
Rnd7
Evan Williams
Evan Williams in slot 256 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257
Rnd7
Nathan Thomas
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 257 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
