The Jets let Nolen fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Walter Nolen had no business being available in the 42nd pick, and the Jets did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If Williams pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In No. 7 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick42 Rnd2 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at pick 42 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick73 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams in the Round 3 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
