Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets robbed the room for Hood. Final grade: B-.

Everything else got attention, and quarterback got none. That is a strange way for the Jets to leave a draft.

The Hood pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 2 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick16 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at Round 2, Pick 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Colton Hood
You do not let a cornerback like Colton Hood reach slot 44 and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
