Future A

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Jets would have aced it. Caden Curry at Round 3, Pick 25 is 43 spots clear of where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Price pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Arvell Reese · LB · rank 7
In the Round 1 slot they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value.
R1.16 · Pick 16 · Carnell Tate · WR · rank 12
In slot 16 they get a true top target at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R1.20 · Pick 20 · Sonny Styles · LB · rank 11
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 27
Dillon Thieneman at the 33rd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Lee Hunter · DT · rank 49
A quiet steal in pick No. 57: Lee Hunter for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Caden Curry · DE-EDGE · rank 132
Caden Curry in No. 89 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · Jadarian Price · RB · rank 61
They barely believed it either: Jadarian Price still on the board at No. 92. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Keylan Rutledge · OG · rank 74
Keylan Rutledge in Round 4, Pick 3 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Devin Moore · CB · rank 94
Somehow Devin Moore was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.40 · Pick 140 · Kaytron Allen · RB · rank 148
They liked Kaytron Allen enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 140. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R5.39 · Pick 179 · Tanner Koziol · TE · rank 167
The board had Tanner Koziol higher than pick 179, and the tight end fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R6.12 · Pick 193 · Taylen Green · QB · rank 193
They paid sticker price for Taylen Green in the 193rd pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
