Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD- FutureA+
The Jets robbed the room for Cooper Jr.. Final grade: B-.

When a board-topper like Ryan Cooper Jr. slides to the Round 7 slot, you do not overthink it, and the Jets did not. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. The Pratt reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 21st pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Nothing to complain about; Patrick Paul went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick112 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
A quiet steal in pick No. 112: Brenden Rice for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick114 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
Value said wait; Michael Pratt in No. 114 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick187 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at pick 187 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Tayvion Robinson
You do not let a wide receiver like Tayvion Robinson reach the 253rd overall pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick254 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Evan Williams at Round 7, Pick 34 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ryan Cooper Jr.
Circle this one: Ryan Cooper Jr. at slot 257 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
