Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC
The Jets answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: D-.

The Jets spent real capital to be 39 picks early on Trevor Keegan, and the board is going to hold them to it. A D- that will need time and luck to look better.

They have staked the next five years on Caleb Williams, which is the only story that really matters here. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.

They punted on cornerback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Johnson steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 1st pick they get a long-term answer under center. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick7 Rnd1 Brock Bowers
In pick No. 7 they get a security blanket over the middle at fair value. More want than need.
Pick12 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the Round 1 slot they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in Round 3, Pick 8 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick112 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They went early on Beaux Limmer in pick 112, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
The board fumbled Brenden Rice all the way to slot 114, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Trevor Keegan
They reached into another round for Trevor Keegan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at slot 187 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick220 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
They barely believed it either: Cornelius Johnson still on the board at the 220th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253 Rnd7 Jalen Sundell
Jalen Sundell in No. 253 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
