Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 144th overall pick lands the Jets a B-, Carter and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Barrett Carter at slot 144 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. White III has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In the 7th pick they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at slot 42 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick92 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in pick 92 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick108 Rnd4 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston slid further than he should have, and pick No. 108 is lovely value for the cornerback. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick144 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
Somehow Barrett Carter was still sitting there in No. 144, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick168 Rnd5 Ricky White III
A reach for Ricky White III in the Round 5 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jacob Parrish
The board had cheaper options than Jacob Parrish at Round 6, Pick 9, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the 206th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick209 Rnd6 Connor Colby
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Connor Colby in slot 209, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
