Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jets, and a B- to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Joe Milton III at pick 185, a reach of 31 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

On value alone, Rosemy-Jacksaint makes the weekend a net positive. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 10th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Trey Benson
Trey Benson at No. 72 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick111 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at Round 4, Pick 11 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick134 Rnd4 Malik Mustapha
By-the-book stuff, Malik Mustapha at the 134th pick squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick185 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
They talked themselves into Joe Milton III at pick 185, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 256 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick257 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They paid up for Frank Gore Jr. at pick No. 257 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
