Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

Start where it matters. The Jets took Fernando Mendoza to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

The Lew pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In No. 2 they get their quarterback of the future. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 16 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
A slide stopped in Round 2, Pick 1, with Sonny Styles worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick44 Rnd2 LT Overton
LT Overton at slot 44 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Connor Lew
Steal is underselling it; Connor Lew at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick175 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
They did well to land Oscar Delp in the 175th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick178 Rnd5 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at pick 178 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick192 Rnd6 DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey at the 192nd pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen in pick 206 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick209 Rnd6 Tristan Leigh
Tristan Leigh at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick218 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on J. Michael Sturdivant. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick242 Rnd7 Rueben Owens II
No edge and no loss on Rueben Owens II in pick No. 242; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
