Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in pick No. 209: the Jets steal Evans and grade out a B.

Call it larceny. Mitchell Evans sat on the board until Round 6, Pick 31, and the Jets did not need to be asked twice.

The West pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 7 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart at Round 2, Pick 10 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips in the 92nd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109 Rnd4 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. at No. 109 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
They barely believed it either: Terrance Ferguson still on the board at the 146th pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick157 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 157 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick188 Rnd6 CJ West
They talked themselves into CJ West at the Round 6 slot, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick209 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in pick 209 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
