2022 NFL draft: Jets trade for extra first-round pick, land WR in new Draft Wire mock

Draft Wire has the Jets trading for a third first-round pick and taking a wide receiver in a new mock draft.

The beginning of free agency went a long way in shaping the Jets’ plans for the 2022 NFL draft.

Joe Douglas addressed needs on both sides of the ball during the first week of free agency. There is still plenty of work to be done, though, and the draft is the best time for New York to fill its remaining holes.

Draft Wire’s latest mock draft has the Jets trading back into the tail end of the first round to get Zach Wilson a potentially dynamic weapon. New York’s two top 10 picks, meanwhile, are used on getting Wilson more protection and shoring up the secondary.

Let’s take a closer look at who Draft Wire has the Jets selecting next month.
