Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

The Jets spent the pick that matters most on Shedeur Sanders, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Castro falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will need Warren to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In pick 19 they get a passer to set the clock by. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick51 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. in No. 51 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick83 Rnd3 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Jamon Dumas-Johnson at the 83rd overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick93 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at the 93rd pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick115 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Taking Sebastian Castro in pick No. 115 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Germie Bernard
They did well to land Germie Bernard in the Round 5 slot, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Will Howard
The board had Will Howard higher than slot 179, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick192 Rnd6 Tyreek Chappell
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyreek Chappell. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
