Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Jets for Grant: B-.

The Jets did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kenneth Grant fell into pick No. 42. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

The Kiser reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They barely believed it either: Kenneth Grant still on the board at the 42nd pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick73 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Bond in slot 73, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Will Howard
They read the board right and Will Howard was the payoff at pick No. 110. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Brashard Smith in Round 5, Pick 7. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick162 Rnd5 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at the 162nd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick186 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
Fair-plus on Quincy Riley, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed in No. 207 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
