Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
The Jets cashed the board's mistake on Loveland: B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Colston Loveland, the No. 63 name on the board, stolen at the Round 3 slot. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In No. 8 they get a disruptive interior force. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
Circle this one: James Pearce Jr. at slot 37 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick40 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in pick 40 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick96 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the 96th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick107 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at the 107th overall pick is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. in pick No. 143 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick183 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Somehow Ollie Gordon II was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 8, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Bryce Foster in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jordan White
Jordan White at slot 222 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
