Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureB-
The Jets landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Jets walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

Bryant at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

So much rides on Mason Graham that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick No. 7 they get an anchor for the defensive front at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A conviction pick on Harold Fannin Jr. at pick 42 that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick92 Rnd3 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at Round 3, Pick 28 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick114 Rnd4 Tory Horton
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tory Horton. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick146 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They paid sticker price for Logan Brown in the 146th overall pick, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick188 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
A quiet steal in slot 188: Cobee Bryant for less than the market said. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick209 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
They did well to land R.J. Mickens in the 209th pick, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
