Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Jets cashed the board's mistake on Moore: B.

The real work happened on the phones. The Jets fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Moore pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The cost of the Mickens reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 12 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
A premium they did not need to pay, Marcus Mbow a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
A conviction pick on Ozzy Trapilo at No. 73 that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick110 Rnd4 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 110th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Taking Dillon Gabriel in the 145th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick162 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in pick 162 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
A big swing on R.J. Mickens at slot 186, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick207 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at pick No. 207 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
