This is one of my final mocks on whom the Jets could or should covet come this year's draft:
11. Oklahoma WR CeeDee Lamb, has the size, length and edginess that would work well in any offense. A pure number one talent that will allow players like Crowder and whomever the No. 2 receiver is to get involved because defenses will be looking to slow or shut Lamb down...
48. Clemson WR Tee Higgins, another lanky tall physical receiver that can take the top off defenses would not only give the team two dominate options for a long time but would cement this position for years to come... Would definitely fit that No. 2 role, where teams would have to game plan if we have two No 1 receivers... Even Gase couldn't mess this up...
68. TCU CB Jeff Gladney, he is an active, light-footed, lanky corner who plays with a nasty demeanor, never giving an inch in contested-catch situations. Over the past two years at TCU, the feisty, sticky corner has three interceptions and a sizable 28 pass breakups.
79. Temple OC Matt Hennessy, he uses hand placement, leverage and athletic ability to make up for his lack of mass and length. He's patient to center blocks and runs his feet to lock in and begin sustaining. He has the lateral quickness and body control to reach, pull and stay connected to blocks on the move. He has early backup, eventual starter potential.
120. UNC OT Charlie Heck, he has the talent to handle swing tackle duties and should be fully functional in all run-blocking schemes. He carries an NFL-ready frame with long arms and loose hips for move blocks and recoveries.
158. ND EDGE Khalid Kareem, he isn't receiving as much notoriety as his teammate Julian Okwara, but Kareem has more imposing size and heavier hands as a pass rusher. He's registered 10 sacks and 20.5 tackles for loss over the past two seasons for the Irish. Because he's seemingly not a supreme athlete.
191. PSU CB John Reid, his competitive press nickel who uses mirror quickness and controlled hand work to make press release uncomfortable for receivers. Reid's body control and balance allow him to play a stickier brand of coverage underneath, but that coverage will fade as routes progress.
211. St. John's OL Ben Bartch, he is a converted tight end who has added 75 pounds of good weight since stepping on campus but retained his plus movement. Despite a lack of experience and small-school background, his traits and rapid growth in body and play caught the eye of Senior Bowl scouts. From a skill standpoint, he's still an undergrad, but on pace for his degree in tackle studies. He's an enticing left tackle prospect who continues to evolve, but a step up in competition and a need for continued physical development will require patience and could determine whether his final calling is swing tackle or starter.
Things could change but as of right now the team needs to stack depth along with a few immediate starters to fill out the roster... Give Sam two dynamic play making receivers and possible future starters to develop across the line bolsters the offensive prowess for years...
Defensively we have some solid low rent one year deals so drafting able bodies to develop and help improve the core of our secondary is a must... Our linebackers across the board is secure with talent, bringing in another possible EDGE will help bolster depth but right now it isn't time to find key components but to build the position to sustain...
