Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueC NeedB- TradesB+ FutureA+
The Jets did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Jets bet big and early on Jackson Hawes, 109 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Winston Jr. steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

The David Onyemata pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 15 they get a red-zone target to build around. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams in the 42nd overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick73 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
A straight-up fair deal on Isaiah Bond at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick110 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe slipping to slot 110 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in No. 117, and they pounced on premier safety value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in the 145th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick151 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Willie Lampkin. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick162 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
A reach for Ajani Cornelius in the 162nd overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in pick No. 186 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick207 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at No. 207 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick242 Rnd7 Davin Vann
Davin Vann at the Round 7 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.
