Draft Grade — Jets
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Jets bet the future on Penix Jr.. The board says A-.

Start where it matters. The Jets took Michael Penix Jr. to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Lovett.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The veteran additions, Ezra Cleveland chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
Fair-plus on Michael Penix Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick86 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Mahogany at the 86th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick111 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A quiet steal in No. 111: Dominick Puni for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick118 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Jahdae Barron at the 118th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick147 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
Cedric Johnson in slot 147 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at Round 5, Pick 23 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick187 Rnd6 Theo Wease
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Theo Wease at pick No. 187 is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick229 Rnd7 Dominic Lovett
Steal is underselling it; Dominic Lovett at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at pick No. 255 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jeremy James
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jeremy James in pick 256. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
