Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Thornton Jr.: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dont'e Thornton Jr. tumbling to the Jets in the 209th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The cost of the Bryant reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 7 they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A reach for Harold Fannin Jr. in the Round 2 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They will replay Jayden Higgins at the 92nd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Value with a capital V on Malachi Moore in pick No. 109, a genuine coup. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They took Logan Brown at par in the 146th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
A wild overpay on Cobee Bryant in Round 5, Pick 18, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
They let Jay Higgins come to them and pounced at pick 188. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick209 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Somehow Dont'e Thornton Jr. was still sitting there in slot 209, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It fills a real need, too.
