NEW YORK JETS
The back seven got meaner this offseason — the safety import alone moved that room into the top third, and the linebackers were already honest. The rest is a 41-41 offense-defense file with a history column reading 4, which my ring-counter considers a rounding error. The receiver and the back are both 7s: real, not rabid. This is what a team grades like when nobody's embarrassing and nobody's terrifying.
The Four Factors
Each factor is normalized 0–100 across the league — 100 is first, 0 is dead last — then weighted into the 32.1. Weights are the same for all 32 teams: defense 35, offense 30, history 20, coaching 15.
DEFENSE
× 35%Bottom third. The unit grades below name the rooms responsible.
OFFENSE
× 30%Bottom third. The blind grades below explain it: honest players, house-pet numbers.
HISTORY
× 20%Bottom third. January depth is the only thing the table pays for, and the table barely opened its wallet.
COACHING
× 15%Mid-pack. The chart shows convention with occasional courage.
The Unit Room
The raw grades behind the factors — my dawg read on each unit group, 1 to 10, with its weight inside the defense factor and where it ranks among the 32. Defense is graded by unit group this season, not player-by-player — per-player cap-hit weighting arrives when the final 2026 cap tables settle. Said loudly on the main board, said loudly here.
The Roster Sheet
Every Jet on the frozen ADP board — the market's price next to my dawg read. The two numbers were never allowed to meet: I scored the player blind, then ADP told me how much of the offense rides on him. That firewall is the whole method. Names that link go to that player's file in the prop room; the rest don't have one yet.
| ADP | PLAYER | POS | DAWG |
|---|---|---|---|
| 27.0 | Garrett Wilson | WR | 7.0 / 10 |
| 30.7 | Breece HallFILE → | RB | 7.0 / 10 |
| 130.1 | Omar Cooper Jr.FILE → | WR | 6.0 / 10 |
| 161.5 | Adonai Mitchell | WR | 5.5 / 10 |
| 162.5 | Kenyon Sadiq | TE | 6.0 / 10 |
Garrett Wilson (7.0/10) is the alpha grade on this sheet. No quarterback is priced on this team's frozen board at all — the market declined to file one. I grade what's in front of me.
Where the Paper Rides
The season-long ledger lives on the main board and grades itself all year. Here is the Jets' part in it, breed against breed.
JETS VS THE LADDER
| OPPONENT'S BREED | ROTTWEILER | GOLDEN RETR. | GREYHOUND | COCKER SPAN. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| THE PLAY | 3 UNITS · OPPONENT | 2 UNITS · OPPONENT | 1 UNIT · OPPONENT | NO PLAY |
The arithmetic is unkind: whenever the Jets meet a bigger breed, the paper is on the other side — one, two, or three units by the size of the gap. Spaniel-on-Spaniel, nobody plays. The rating is locked; if this team has more fight than I graded, the ledger will be the first to admit it. I'll be the second.
