Draft Grade — Jets
Overall F
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureD-
The Jets let Richardson fall and pounced. Final grade: F.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Jets did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. The board sounded every alarm, and the F is the fallout.

The Vidal pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

There is no soft landing here: they fought the board and left edge rusher open, and the grade is the bill.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 1st pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 75, where Cooper Beebe graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick111 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
The board had cheaper options than Brenden Rice at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Michael Pratt well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They took Javon Foster at par in slot 129, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at Round 5, Pick 2 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
Kimani Vidal at pick No. 185 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick203 Rnd6 Decamerion Richardson
They will replay Decamerion Richardson at pick 203 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick257 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brevyn Spann-Ford. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
