Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

When a board-topper like Chris Cole slides to pick 110, you do not overthink it, and the Jets did not. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Darian Mensah is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They will answer for taking cornerback early while wide receiver and running back went begging. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Darian Mensah
They did well to land Darian Mensah in pick No. 7, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick11 Rnd1 Colin Simmons
In No. 11 they get a bendy edge with upside, outstanding value to boot. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Echoles
In the 12th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value.
Pick42 Rnd2 Leonard Moore
A curious use of pick 42. Wide receiver and running back needed the pick; a cornerback in Leonard Moore did not.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Chris Cole
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Chris Cole at linebacker with wide receiver and running back open.
Pick146 Rnd5 Koi Perich
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 146, where Koi Perich graded well above the range. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick187 Rnd6 Drew Bobo
A clean, defensible pick in the 187th overall pick with a little surplus value in Drew Bobo. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
They barely believed it either: Jermaine Mathews Jr. still on the board at slot 210. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
