FutureC+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Isaac: C-. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Jets watched Adisa Isaac slide 34 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. For now it grades a C-, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They will need Milton III to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.
They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. Adding Stefon Diggs by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.
So much rides on Taliese Fuaga that the real verdict is a season or two away.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In pick No. 14 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick45
Rnd2
Adonai Mitchell
The board had Adonai Mitchell higher than Round 2, Pick 13, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick57
Rnd2
Kingsley Suamataia
By-the-book stuff, Kingsley Suamataia at the 57th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick72
Rnd3
Junior Colson
The board fumbled Junior Colson all the way to the Round 3 slot, and they scooped it up. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
Steal is underselling it; Adisa Isaac at No. 88 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111
Rnd4
Cam Hart
They read the board right and Cam Hart was the payoff at the 111th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125
Rnd4
McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson at slot 125 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126
Rnd4
James Williams
They paid sticker price for James Williams in pick 126, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135
Rnd4
Blake Fisher
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Blake Fisher in Round 4, Pick 35. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick169
Rnd5
Jaheim Bell
Nothing to complain about; Jaheim Bell went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick170
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 170th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick175
Rnd5
Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at the Round 5 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Xavier Thomas
A top-tier edge rusher at a bargain, Xavier Thomas in pick No. 185, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190
Rnd6
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper slid further than he should have, and the 190th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick220
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at slot 220 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick233
Rnd7
Myles Harden
Circle this one: Myles Harden at No. 233 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick239
Rnd7
Nathan Thomas
A slide stopped in slot 239, with Nathan Thomas worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick256
Rnd7
Daijahn Anthony
They will replay Daijahn Anthony at pick 256 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick257
Rnd7
Andrew Raym
They barely believed it either: Andrew Raym still on the board at No. 257. The roster fit checks out.
