Joe Douglas grabbed nine players in the 2020 NFL draft to shore up positions of need for the Jets.

Douglas said he wanted to bring in high-character, highly productive players and he didn’t disappoint. More than half of the Jets’ picks were team captains in college and all proved to be playmakers at their respective positions. Douglas did a great job filling positions of need as well, especially on offense where he grabbed two linemen, and one wide receiver, running back and quarterback as well as two defensive backs to upgrade Gregg Williams’ secondary.

After years of horrible draft classes, the Jets need Douglas’ first one to hit on every pick. Time will tell if these players will pan out, but the initial blend of talent, character and need looks promising as the Jets head into the 2020 season.
