Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Jets spent real capital to be 59 picks early on Brady Cook, and the board is going to hold them to it.

The Sabb value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 7th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
By-the-book stuff, Benjamin Morrison at Round 2, Pick 10 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They will replay Omarr Norman-Lott at pick No. 96 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick109 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at slot 109 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick144 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at the Round 5 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick158 Rnd5 Keon Sabb
Keon Sabb in No. 158 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Brady Cook
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Brady Cook well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They paid sticker price for Miles Frazier in pick No. 206, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
