Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Jets bled value on every deal, hence the B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Sam Hartman; the Jets did not wait, grabbing him 73 spots ahead at the 185th overall pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The Barrett pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
Fair-plus on Brian Thomas Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in pick 72 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A tidy little value on Zak Zinter in Round 4, Pick 11, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick124 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at pick No. 124 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A linebacker of that caliber at the 131st pick is the definition of value, full stop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick135 Rnd4 Christian Jones
Good price on Christian Jones in slot 135, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick185 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Sam Hartman well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick256 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
The board fumbled Michael Barrett all the way to pick No. 256, and they scooped it up. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick257 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams at the Round 7 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
