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

Every other box got a look, but cornerback did not. The Jets will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

Jeffcoat has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They banked enough surplus on Edwards to cover a lot of smaller sins.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target. A real need, handled.
Pick72 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A reach on Patrick Paul in slot 72; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at Round 4, Pick 11 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick134 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt at pick No. 134 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
They paid up for Josh Proctor at pick 185 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards at the 256th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick257 Rnd7 Trajan Jeffcoat
A wild overpay on Trajan Jeffcoat in No. 257, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
