Larceny in slot 239 lands the Jets a B+, McGlothern and all. The board owed the Jets one, and it paid up: Dwight McGlothern, the No. 161 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 239 like a gift left on the doorstep. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick20
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 20 they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick45
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at Round 2, Pick 13 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick51
Rnd2
Cooper Beebe
Fair-plus on Cooper Beebe, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick72
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Ja'Lynn Polk in the 72nd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111
Rnd4
Mekhi Wingo
Nothing to complain about; Mekhi Wingo went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick119
Rnd4
Matt Goncalves
Good price on Matt Goncalves in No. 119, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick135
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
Value with a capital V on Johnny Wilson in the 135th overall pick, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick178
Rnd6
Sione Vaki
They will replay Sione Vaki at slot 178 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick185
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
Nice patience on Javion Cohen, who had no business lasting to the 185th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick239
Rnd7
Dwight McGlothern
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 239 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256
Rnd7
Dominique Hampton
You do not let a safety like Dominique Hampton reach slot 256 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick257
Rnd7
Johnny Dixon
Johnny Dixon in the 257th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
