FutureB-
The Jets turned the phones into found money: B+. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Jordan Hall at pick 197 is 81 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.
That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In No. 7 they get a rangy last line of defense. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick25
Rnd1
Eric Singleton Jr.
In slot 25 they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick42
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dillon Thieneman in the 42nd overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick57
Rnd2
Cayden Green
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cayden Green at the Round 2 slot is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70
Rnd3
Makhi Hughes
They will replay Makhi Hughes at the 70th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100
Rnd3
Domonique Orange
Value with a capital V on Domonique Orange in Round 3, Pick 36, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in No. 104 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick110
Rnd4
Braylan Shelby
Braylan Shelby at Round 4, Pick 8 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick120
Rnd4
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at the 120th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick125
Rnd4
Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick139
Rnd5
Carson Beck
A quarterback of that caliber at pick 139 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick182
Rnd6
Xavier Nwankpa
A clean, defensible pick in the 182nd overall pick with a little surplus value in Xavier Nwankpa. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick197
Rnd6
Jordan Hall
Jordan Hall in pick No. 197 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209
Rnd6
J.Michael Sturdivant
J.Michael Sturdivant in slot 209 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick251
Rnd7
Tony Grimes
The board had Tony Grimes higher than No. 251, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick253
Rnd7
Markis Deal
Markis Deal at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick254
Rnd7
Keyon Ware-Hudson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Keyon Ware-Hudson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
