Draft Grade — Jets
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureD
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Jets and Mayes: C+.

The Jets did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and BJ Mayes fell into the 256th overall pick. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Rogers reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Hit on Taliese Fuaga and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In pick 18 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at pick No. 49 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick72 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
You do not let a quarterback like Spencer Rattler reach No. 111 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
Justin Rogers at the 147th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick173 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio in slot 173 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick187 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Proctor. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan in the 229th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick255 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Joshua Cephus in No. 255. It fills a real need, too.
Pick256 Rnd7 BJ Mayes
BJ Mayes at pick 256 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
