My humble 2021 mock draft

[Pointdexter]

Rest assured that the Jets never take anyone off my list, so if you don't like my mock then this should be pretty reassuring for you. Obviously 2 is a lock but after that it gets interesting.

Here goes:

2 - Zach Wilson, QB, BYU

23 - Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, LB, ND (someone who will simultaneously help the pass rush and the coverage unit. Supremely athletic)

34 - Rondale Moore, WR/KR, Purdue - (if healthy, the biggest home run hitter in the draft. May also be the best return specialist day 1)

66 - Liam Eichenberg, OL, ND - (plug and play at RG and insurance for Fant at RT)

86 - Quinn Meinerz, OL, UWW - (Immediate upgrade for the interior OL)

107 - Tre Brown, CB, Oklahoma - (a dog in the secondary and maybe the best slot corner in the draft)

146 - Sage Surratt, WR, WF - (immediate fan favorite, 6'3 tough, isn't afraid to work the middle of the field)

154 - Israel Mukuamu, CB, USC - (6'4 rangy and instinctive CB who can also help at free safety. Perfect for a zone scheme)

186 - Javian Hawkins, RB, Louisville - (Not far off from the prospect Etienne is. Will do a lot of things in this offense)

226 - Jose Borregales, K, Miami - (we need to upgrade at kicker)

 

So that tallies:

*6 offense, 3 defense, 1 kicker

*1 QB, 1 RB, 2 WRs, 2 OL, 1 LB, 2 CBs, 1 k

* Emphasis on athleticism that are also tough, accomplished college football players. No workout warriors who didn't prove it on the field.

*I do expect Joe to trade down at 23 or 34. I don't expect a trade up.

I like it, I still would prefer to trade up for a tackle or a receiver and trade down to recoup the pick we would need to give up.

Quinn Meinerz Won’t be there for 66

Goddddddddddddd.

Why am I seeing more and more of our mocks taking LBs in Rd1/Rd2?

Please make it stop.

I would be monumentally shocked if he was not there at 34 and surprised if he was gone by 66

Draft covers needs and seems well thought out, tough to beef too much with it without seeing who else was on  the board at the time of each pick.

I am with JTjet on this one though I'll just be pissed if we take a LB at 23 I don;t care who he is.

As opposed to your boastful mock draft.

EASY ANSWER:

Because it makes sense, given the people that everyone have been picking....

In today's NFL the name of the game is protecting your own QB and being able to pressure the opposing QB. The Jets have stunk at both for years.

J O-M is the most athletic LB in the draft. He will be a terror blitzing off the edge, while also capable of handling rb's and TEs out of the backfield. While I don't love going defense early, the one acceptable reason is to get a guy who ramps up our ability to pressure the QB.

Where did 43 come from? Did I miss something?
