Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC- FutureB-
Larceny in No. 247 lands the Jets a C+, Mickens and all.

The Jets spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: R.J. Mickens, the No. 210 name on the board, in pick No. 247. A mixed bag that lands at C+.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Simon reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end. More want than need.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tre Harris
By-the-book stuff, Tre Harris at slot 42 squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in pick 73 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick110 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the 110th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick162 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
Nice patience on O'Donnell Fortune, who had no business lasting to No. 162. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick174 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 174 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Good price on Jack Kiser in the 186th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick207 Rnd6 Vernon Broughton
Vernon Broughton at the 207th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
The board fumbled R.J. Mickens all the way to the 247th pick, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
