Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Jets, and a B- to prove it.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Jets reached some 62 spots for Kyle Williams, and value like that does not grow back. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The Simon steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 7 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
They paid up for Harold Fannin Jr. at pick No. 42 when waiting would have done the job. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick73 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They went early on Andrew Mukuba in slot 73, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at No. 110 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick145 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in the 145th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim in pick 162 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick186 Rnd6 CJ West
They took CJ West at par in the 186th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick207 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on R.J. Mickens. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
