Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jets found their guy under center in Sanders: B+.

Somebody in Round 6, Pick 30 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Jets sat still while Chris Paul Jr., the No. 112 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

Everything downstream of Shedeur Sanders depends on Shedeur Sanders, and the building knows it. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 1st pick they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick7 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in pick 35, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick96 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Somehow Harold Fannin Jr. was still sitting there in No. 96, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick101 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 101st pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick108 Rnd4 Darien Porter
The board fumbled Darien Porter all the way to slot 108, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick144 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
They barely believed it either: Barrett Carter still on the board at Round 5, Pick 7. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick155 Rnd5 Danny Stutsman
Danny Stutsman in pick No. 155 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick184 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 184th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Circle this one: Chris Paul Jr. at the 205th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
