Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

The Jets put a flag in the ground for Zach Rice, 49 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Green value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Rueben Bain Jr. at the Round 1 slot, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
A clean, defensible pick in the 16th pick with a little surplus value in Carnell Tate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
They took Sonny Styles at par in pick No. 33, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick44 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
Chris Johnson in Round 2, Pick 12 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
Value said wait; Trinidad Chambliss in slot 103 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Eric McAlister at No. 175 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick179 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A quiet steal in No. 179: Taylen Green for less than the market said. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick193 Rnd6 Isaiah Nwokobia
Good price on Isaiah Nwokobia in the 193rd overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick207 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
No edge and no loss on Trey Zuhn III in the 207th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick211 Rnd6 Brett Norfleet
They paid up for Brett Norfleet at pick No. 211 when waiting would have done the job. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick218 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
Dominic Zvada at slot 218 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick242 Rnd7 Zach Rice
A real head-scratcher, Zach Rice in Round 7, Pick 26 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
