FutureB
The Jets turned the phones into found money: B. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Jets took Kyren Lacy at the Round 4 slot, roughly 139 spots before his name belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
They banked enough surplus on Lawson to cover a lot of smaller sins. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own.
They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Will Johnson
In the 13th overall pick they get a ballhawk on the outside, a steep price for the projection. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick42
Rnd2
Carson Beck
Carson Beck at pick No. 42 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77
Rnd3
Colston Loveland
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Colston Loveland at Round 3, Pick 13. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick96
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
You do not let a safety like Sonny Styles reach pick 96 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick109
Rnd4
Kyren Lacy
A big swing on Kyren Lacy at slot 109, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick145
Rnd5
Emery Jones Jr.
They reached into another round for Emery Jones Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149
Rnd5
Harold Perkins Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Harold Perkins Jr. at the 149th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick162
Rnd5
Mason Taylor
This one needs a full-page explanation: Mason Taylor in pick 162, miles early. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick171
Rnd5
Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at pick No. 171, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick182
Rnd6
Devin Neal
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Devin Neal in slot 182, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick209
Rnd6
Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at Round 6, Pick 34 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick221
Rnd7
Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
