Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Sanders is the Jets' new face under center. Grade: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Cam Horsley at the Round 5 slot is 62 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Shedeur Sanders gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Harvey. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 7th pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in No. 42 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick73 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
By-the-book stuff, Isaiah Bond at pick 73 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jamaree Caldwell
Jamaree Caldwell at the 110th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 145 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Cam Horsley
Cam Horsley in slot 156 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick186 Rnd6 RJ Harvey
They robbed the room for RJ Harvey here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at Round 6, Pick 31 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
