Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Jets bet the future on Ward. The board says B.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Jets shredded theirs for Garrett Greene. He came off 161 spots early, and the room will hear about it. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The whole projection now runs through Cam Ward; hit there and everything else looks smarter. Landing Howard that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the Round 1 slot they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick42 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
By-the-book stuff, Matthew Golden at pick No. 42 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick92 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at No. 92 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Malachi Moore at the 109th pick is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in the 146th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick157 Rnd5 Will Howard
Somehow Will Howard was still sitting there in pick 157, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick188 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
A premium they did not need to pay, Luke Lachey a notch or two before his time. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick209 Rnd6 Garrett Greene
They talked themselves into Garrett Greene at the 209th overall pick, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
