Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Jets spent slot 207 on Hayden Conner, a name the board had a full 47 spots lower. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

However the rest shakes out, Williams at that price is a win they earned. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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 edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
A conviction pick on Harold Fannin Jr. at No. 42 that the board grades a round light. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick No. 73 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Nothing to complain about; Jordan Phillips went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
They barely believed it either: Dillon Gabriel still on the board at the 145th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick162 Rnd5 Nohl Williams
Taking Nohl Williams in Round 5, Pick 24 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick186 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at Round 6, Pick 10 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
They talked themselves into Hayden Conner at pick No. 207, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
