The Jets answered their biggest question with Mensah. Grade: B. The Jets spent the pick that matters most on Darian Mensah, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.
Sorsby falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Ponton pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Darian Mensah
In the 4th overall pick they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick6
Rnd1
Leonard Moore
In slot 6 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick10
Rnd1
Will Echoles
In Round 1, Pick 10 they get an anchor for the defensive front. A real need, handled.
Pick37
Rnd2
Tae Johnson
A clean, defensible pick in No. 37 with a little surplus value in Tae Johnson. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick68
Rnd3
Reed Harris
Reed Harris at the 68th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick107
Rnd4
Brendan Sorsby
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Brendan Sorsby in pick No. 107, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144
Rnd5
OJ Frederique Jr.
OJ Frederique Jr. in pick 144 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185
Rnd6
Jacob Ponton
They went early on Jacob Ponton in the Round 6 slot, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick202
Rnd6
Drayk Bowen
Drayk Bowen slid further than he should have, and pick No. 202 is lovely value for the linebacker. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
