Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Jets: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Jets took Willie Lampkin at slot 145, roughly 33 spots before his name belonged. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

The Warren pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In No. 7 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
You do not let a tight end like Tyler Warren reach Round 2, Pick 10 and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at pick No. 73 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick110 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams in slot 110 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick145 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
They reached a country mile for Willie Lampkin at the 145th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick162 Rnd5 CJ West
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for CJ West. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
A premium they did not need to pay, Jay Higgins a notch or two before his time. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick207 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith slid further than he should have, and pick 207 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
