Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Jets a B.

There is reaching, and then there is Jackson Hawes at slot 207. The Jets jumped the board by 53 and dared it to prove them wrong. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Leonard. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick No. 14 they get a matchup weapon at tight end at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick42 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in slot 42 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tre Harris
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tre Harris. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
The board had cheaper options than Ozzy Trapilo at Round 3, Pick 9, and it noticed. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Nohl Williams
They went early on Nohl Williams in pick 110, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick145 Rnd5 Riley Leonard
They will replay Riley Leonard at the 145th pick for years; that is how good the value is. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick162 Rnd5 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick186 Rnd6 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in pick 186 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at slot 207 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
