Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Jets.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Tommi Hill, the No. 153 name on the board, stolen at the 186th pick.

The Lachey reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 7th overall pick they get a problem off the edge, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick42 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka slipping to No. 42 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick73 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
A quiet steal in the 73rd pick: Azareye'h Thomas for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick110 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
The board fumbled Sebastian Castro all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
Taking Kyle McCord in pick No. 145 is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick156 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
A wild overpay on Luke Lachey in the 156th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick186 Rnd6 Tommi Hill
They robbed the room for Tommi Hill here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick207 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
They barely believed it either: Donovan Edwards still on the board at pick 207. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
