Draft Grade — Jets
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Jets: B-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Jets took Ben Sinnott at Round 3, Pick 8, roughly 57 spots before his name belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Williams steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 10th pick they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
Value said wait; Ben Sinnott in No. 72 says they were not listening. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick111 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
This one needs a full-page explanation: Luke McCaffrey in pick 111, miles early. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 James Williams
Value with a capital V on James Williams in pick No. 135, a genuine coup. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick185 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
The board had cheaper options than Joe Milton III at slot 185, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick256 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Tyrice Knight
They took Tyrice Knight at par in slot 257, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
