11. Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville
The Jets need someone to help Sam Darnold, so both a No. 1 receiver (Jerry Jeudy) and a talented left tackle (Jedrick Wills) make sense. The former happens to be the superior prospect, but I think the front office will value protecting Darnold.

At 6-7, 340, Mekhi Becton is a massive human being. Despite his size, however, Becton is athletic and flexible, as he showed us at the combine. He projects similarly to Cordy Glenn.

48. Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson
The Jets haven't found any weapons for Sam Darnold yet, so they'll need to focus on doing so during the draft.

Tee Higgins is a matchup nightmare receiver with his incredible size (6-4, 200), but didn't run at the combine because he thought he would test poorly.

68. Terrell Lewis, DE/OLB, Alabama
The Jets have needed to address their edge rush for years, so perhaps they'll finally do so.

Terrell Lewis was once a staple of my 2019 NFL Mock Draft, but he returned to school after an injury-plagued 2018 campaign.

79. Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU
The Jets could address cornerback much earlier than this, given how great of a need it is.

Jeff Gladney has off-the-field issues, but is talented enough to still be a second-round prospect.

120. Eno Benjamin, RB, Arizona State
The Jets will keep Le'Veon Bell for one more year, but he didn't mesh well with Adam Gase.

Eno Benjamin has shown better receiving ability, so he could be chosen in the third round.

158. Stephen Guidry, WR, Mississippi State
The Jets could double up on receivers, given the lack of talent at the position.

Stephen Guidry has great size (6-4, 190) and nice upside.

191. Ben Bartch, G, St. John's
Here's yet another offensive lineman for the Jets, who need to continue protecting Sam Darnold priorities A, B, and C this offseason.

211. Tyrie Cleveland, WR, Florida
Here's wideout No. 3 for the receiver-hungry Jets.

Looks good to me, apart from the guy with 'off-field issues'. We've had a belly-full of those.

They're on the right track, but I think an IOL guy in the 3rd would be smart.

That would be a nice draft for the Jets. I could only hope Gladney is on the board that late. He's a bit undersized, but very physical and athletic.

What off-field issues has he had? I'm familiar with his on-field issues - a fight against Iowa State, an ejection against...I want to say Texas Tech, but I might be wrong.
