Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Jets bled value on every deal, hence the C-.

The Jets looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Joe Milton III at No. 135 regardless, 65 picks early. It washes out to a C-, no better and no worse.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. The Tracy Jr. pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A perfectly average weekend, for better and for worse.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 17 they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick50 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in pick No. 50 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A straight-up fair deal on Kingsley Suamataia at No. 58, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at the 72nd overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick88 Rnd3 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dadrion Taylor-Demerson. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick91 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at Round 3, Pick 28 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
They did well to land Christian Mahogany in No. 104, just ahead of his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick108 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at slot 108 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Nice patience on Cam Hart, who had no business lasting to the 111th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick120 Rnd4 Tyler Davis
No edge and no loss on Tyler Davis in Round 4, Pick 20; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick129 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick135 Rnd4 Joe Milton III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Joe Milton III. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. slid further than he should have, and pick 169 is lovely value for the wide receiver. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaheim Bell at the 172nd overall pick is the proof. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick185 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Nothing to complain about; Ty'Ron Hopper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
No drama and no debate, Jordan Jefferson went about where he belonged in pick 186. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
They took Gabe Hall at par in No. 219, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick257 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
They let Josh Proctor come to them and pounced at slot 257. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
