The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Franklin: B-.

The board owed the Jets one, and it paid up: Zakhari Franklin, the No. 229 name on the board, sitting there at Round 7, Pick 35 like a gift left on the doorstep.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Pearsall proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick 24 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick56 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at the Round 2 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. slid further than he should have, and the 72nd overall pick is lovely value for the linebacker. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in No. 87 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in pick No. 111 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick124 Rnd4 Leonard Taylor III
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Leonard Taylor III at Round 4, Pick 24 is the proof. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at slot 147 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick187 Rnd6 Javon Baker
A tidy little value on Javon Baker in the 187th pick, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick229 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Sam Hartman in No. 229, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick255 Rnd7 Zakhari Franklin
Taking Zakhari Franklin in slot 255 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Good price on Eric Gentry in pick 256, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
