Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureA+
Grand theft in the Round 6 slot: the Jets steal Lacy and grade out a D+.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Jets shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

They banked enough surplus on Lacy to cover a lot of smaller sins. The Schwesinger pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, cornerback and other spots.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They are betting Phillips proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
They took Abdul Carter at par in the 5th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick25 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 25th pick they get a red-zone target to build around, and a steal at that.
Pick35 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Nice patience on Jalon Walker, who had no business lasting to pick No. 35. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick36 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
The board had Malaki Starks higher than Round 2, Pick 4, and the safety fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick42 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon slipping to slot 42 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips at No. 92 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick109 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
A surprising call. With quarterback, cornerback and other spots still to address, they spent the 109th pick on Carson Schwesinger, a linebacker they were not short of.
Pick146 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
They let Darius Alexander come to them and pounced at slot 146. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in pick No. 157 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick188 Rnd6 Kyren Lacy
You do not let a wide receiver like Kyren Lacy reach No. 188 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick209 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at Round 6, Pick 31 is a fall that decides a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
