Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jets cashed the board's mistake on Jones: B+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Jets watched Sheridan Jones slide 36 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Every board in the league had All lower, and that gap is the story.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. David Bakhtiari gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a weapon on the perimeter. A real need, handled.
Pick41 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims slipping to pick 41 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick58 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper at the 58th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick72 Rnd3 Kamren Kinchens
They let Kamren Kinchens come to them and pounced at Round 3, Pick 8. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick111 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice slid further than he should have, and pick No. 111 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick135 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt at No. 135 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Fabien Lovett
The board had cheaper options than Fabien Lovett at slot 169, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All at the 185th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick245 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
They will replay JD Bertrand at pick 245 for years; that is how good the value is. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick256 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Sheridan Jones at the 256th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Owens at the 257th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
