Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Jets walked out of the weekend still thin at quarterback, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Landing Williams that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 10th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They paid sticker price for Tyleik Williams in pick 42, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick74 Rnd3 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts in No. 74 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
They took Jahdae Barron at par in pick No. 106, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jaleel Skinner
Nothing to complain about; Jaleel Skinner went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick170 Rnd6 Bru McCoy
Bru McCoy at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186 Rnd6 Chantz Williams
Value with a capital V on Chantz Williams in the 186th pick, a genuine coup. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
