Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB+
The Jets drew a line under the quarterback search with Ward: D.

The Jets bet big and early on Stone Handy, 87 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Put together, it is a D.

So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. Landing James that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Cam Ward
Cam Ward at the 4th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick35 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in the 35th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick38 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos in pick 38 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm is a better player than pick No. 78 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jake Majors
No drama and no debate, Jake Majors went about where he belonged in No. 95. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jordan James
Steal is underselling it; Jordan James at slot 110 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in pick 145 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick148 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 148th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick160 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A conviction pick on Connor Colby at pick No. 160 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Sonny Styles
They robbed the room for Sonny Styles here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Stone Handy
This one needs a full-page explanation: Stone Handy in the Round 6 slot, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
