Jets Top 10 Targets

New York some thinking to do during this draft process. The Jets are just a few pieces away from making a legit push for the playoffs this upcoming season. If the Gang Green can land one of the top four offensive tackles in this year’s draft would be huge to protect Darnold’s blink spot.

Also, if New York could get a true number one receiver in this year’s 2020 NFL Draft would help Darnold with his development and the entire Jets offense. At eleventh overall, the Jets can probably pick the receiver that they would want, the only way that this does not happen if some team trades up right in front of them.

When it comes to defense this early is hard. The Gang Green have to fill one of those two needs early than in Day two they can look at Epenesa or Gross-Matos if one of those prospects fall. Chaisson is a first-round lock but when it comes to the other two, some teams may have Julian Okwara or Curtis Weaver higher them which could make a few of these edge rushers drop.
