Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Grand theft in No. 145: the Jets steal Mondon Jr. and grade out a B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 112 name on the board, stolen at pick 145. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for West left real value on the table behind him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen in Round 1, Pick 17 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick49 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in the 49th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Elijah Arroyo. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick81 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
A tidy little value on Isaiah Bond in pick No. 81, a step better than break-even. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Tyler Shough
The board had Tyler Shough higher than the 110th pick, and the quarterback fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick145 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
They robbed the room for Smael Mondon Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick162 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
A clean, defensible pick in No. 162 with a little surplus value in Andres Borregales. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
They took Jaylen Reed at par in the 186th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick207 Rnd6 Addison West
Addison West at pick 207 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
