Draft Grade — Jets
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Jets for Williams: D+.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Jets shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Williams at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The Jets paired the rookies with proven help, David Bakhtiari leading the way.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, cornerback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
No edge and no loss on Olumuyiwa Fashanu in the 10th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick72 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
No drama and no debate, Cooper Beebe went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher slipping to No. 112 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in slot 126 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at pick No. 144 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick168 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at the 168th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick187 Rnd6 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
A safety of that caliber at No. 187 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick226 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
Circle this one: JD Bertrand at Round 7, Pick 6 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick253 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
Isaiah Williams at the 253rd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jeremy Flax
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jeremy Flax in pick 254. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick257 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
A quiet steal in slot 257: Joshua Cephus for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
