Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureA+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Jets: B+.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Jets did exactly that with Malachi Lawrence in No. 97.

The safety hole is the one line item this class does not answer. If one pick saves this weekend, it is McDonald.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 12 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker. More want than need.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In the 16th pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick20 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In pick 20 they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald in No. 33 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick49 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 17 with a little surplus value in Brandon Cisse. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick97 Rnd3 Malachi Lawrence
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Malachi Lawrence. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick103 Rnd4 Drew Allar
A real head-scratcher, Drew Allar in No. 103 is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
