Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

The war room fell hard for Cam Horsley, and it showed at the Round 6 slot: 22 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Fortune steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick No. 7 they get a go-to option on the outside. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Harold Fannin Jr. a notch or two before his time. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick73 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
A tidy little value on Carson Schwesinger in slot 73, a step better than break-even. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
A slide stopped in No. 110, with Kevin Winston Jr. worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Logan Brown. It fills a real need, too.
Pick162 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
They read the board right and O'Donnell Fortune was the payoff at the 162nd pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick186 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 186 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick207 Rnd6 Cam Horsley
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cam Horsley this early at the Round 6 slot. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
