Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Jets.

The tape said wait; the Jets did not. Jackson Hawes went at slot 207, a good 47 picks before the board was ready. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 7th pick they get a seam-stretching tight end, though they paid up to get him. Need was not the driver here.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan at pick 42 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick73 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They paid up for Ozzy Trapilo at the Round 3 slot when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
A slide stopped in pick No. 110, with Kevin Winston Jr. worth more than the price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick145 Rnd5 CJ West
CJ West at slot 145 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick171 Rnd5 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at No. 171 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at pick 186 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jackson Hawes
Value said wait; Jackson Hawes in the 207th overall pick says they were not listening. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick211 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at pick No. 211 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
