FutureB-
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 35 lands the Jets a D+, Bertrand and all. The phones were a trap the Jets kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.
The Sinnott pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman and running back. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Bertrand value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
Taliese Fuaga at the 15th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick58
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
They did well to land Xavier Worthy in pick No. 58, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick72
Rnd3
Kamren Kinchens
Nice patience on Kamren Kinchens, who had no business lasting to pick 72. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88
Rnd3
Cade Stover
Cade Stover at slot 88 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick91
Rnd3
Mike Sainristil
They let Mike Sainristil come to them and pounced at the 91st overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
Value with a capital V on Brenden Rice in No. 111, a genuine coup. It fills a real need, too.
Pick117
Rnd4
Cam Hart
They read the board right and Cam Hart was the payoff at No. 117. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick126
Rnd4
Ben Sinnott
A want over a need in pick No. 126: Ben Sinnott adds a tight end while interior defensive lineman and running back keeps waiting.
Pick135
Rnd4
Michael Pratt
No drama and no debate, Michael Pratt went about where he belonged in the 135th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick185
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in the 185th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick202
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
A slide stopped in slot 202, with Tahj Washington worth more than the price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219
Rnd6
Delmar Glaze
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 44 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick234
Rnd7
Evan Williams
Evan Williams at pick 234 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245
Rnd7
Keith Randolph Jr.
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Keith Randolph Jr. in the Round 7 slot, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255
Rnd7
JD Bertrand
Taking JD Bertrand in slot 255 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick257
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
You do not let a linebacker like Trevin Wallace reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
