New York Jets

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Jets: B.

The Logan Fano selection is the head-turner. The Jets reached 94 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Haulcy value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In the 12th pick they get the heartbeat of the defense. Need was not the driver here.
R1.16 · Pick 16 · Jordyn Tyson · WR · rank 9
In the 16th overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. A real need, handled.
R1.20 · Pick 20 · Kenyon Sadiq · TE · rank 19
By-the-book stuff, Kenyon Sadiq at Round 1, Pick 20 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Colton Hood · CB · rank 25
A tidy bit of business in slot 33, where Colton Hood graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Lee Hunter · DT · rank 48
Lee Hunter at pick No. 49 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · A.J. Haulcy · S · rank 50
The board fumbled A.J. Haulcy all the way to No. 92, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.33 · Pick 97 · Mike Washington Jr. · RB · rank 75
They robbed the room for Mike Washington Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Chase Bisontis · OG · rank 70
You do not let an offensive lineman like Chase Bisontis reach the 103rd pick and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Malachi Fields · WR · rank 73
They will replay Malachi Fields at pick 112 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.40 · Pick 140 · Drew Allar · QB · rank 157
A conviction pick on Drew Allar at pick No. 140 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.23 · Pick 163 · Logan Fano · DE-EDGE · rank 257
This one needs a full-page explanation: Logan Fano in the Round 5 slot, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.39 · Pick 179 · Matt Gulbin · C · rank 183
Matt Gulbin in slot 179 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
R7.12 · Pick 228 · Thaddeus Dixon · CB · rank 220
The board had Thaddeus Dixon higher than No. 228, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.26 · Pick 242 · Jimmy Rolder · LB · rank 221
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 26 is the definition of value, full stop. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
