Draft day has arrived.
Just hours from now, college football’s top prospects will begin to realize their NFL dreams when the 2020 draft gets started. Sure, things are happening virtually this year, but that won’t stop the sports world from zeroing in on every pick. If anything, the current state of things may just increase the number of eyeballs watching the draft.
Jets fans will surely be locked into this draft, as it will be Joe Douglas’ first as the team’s general manager. The hope is that he can turn things around after more than a few botched drafts from his predecessors, but only time will tell.
In the meantime, we at Jets Wire thought it would be helpful to create a space where readers can find all of the pertinent Gang Green draft coverage they need. So, without further ado, start clicking on the links below to get yourself up to speed before the Jets are on the clock with the 11th pick.
