Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Sellers is the plan now, and the Jets grade out a B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. LaNorris Sellers is the Jets' quarterback, full stop. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They are betting Kearney proves the room right and everyone else wrong. On value alone, Sturdivant makes the weekend a net positive. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Quarterback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 LaNorris Sellers
In the Round 1 slot they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Chris Brazzell II
Chris Brazzell II at pick No. 36 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick104 Rnd4 Roderick Kearney
They reached a country mile for Roderick Kearney at the 104th pick, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Bray Hubbard
Good price on Bray Hubbard in No. 139, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
A real head-scratcher, Patrick Payton in slot 182 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jaishawn Barham
Jaishawn Barham at Round 6, Pick 21 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick209 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
They paid sticker price for Trey Zuhn III in pick 209, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
A premium they did not need to pay, Pat Coogan a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick251 Rnd7 J.Michael Sturdivant
Circle this one: J.Michael Sturdivant at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick253 Rnd7 Dasan McCullough
A wild overpay on Dasan McCullough in the 253rd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
