Grand theft in the 218th pick: the Jets steal Polk and grade out a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Jets were there to profit. Ja'Lynn Polk, the No. 71 name on the board, should have been long gone before Round 6, Pick 43. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jordan Morgan
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jordan Morgan reach slot 72 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick110 Rnd4 Sedrick Van Pran
They robbed the room for Sedrick Van Pran here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick112 Rnd4 Michael Hall Jr.
They will replay Michael Hall Jr. at No. 112 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick184 Rnd6 Renardo Green
Renardo Green in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick218 Rnd6 Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in the 218th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick256 Rnd7 Austin Reed
Circle this one: Austin Reed at pick No. 256 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
The board fumbled Trevin Wallace all the way to the 257th pick, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
