Second Round: Damon Arnette | CB | Ohio State

After the Jets eventually move on from the oft-injured Trumaine Johnson this offseason, they’ll need help at cornerback.

With the addition of Damon Arnette in the second round, the Jets would be getting immediate help at the position. He considered leaving college after his junior season, but ultimately decided to stay at Ohio State for his senior campaign.

It certainly paid off for Arnette, who finished his career with a second-team All-Big Ten performance. In 13 starts, Arnette recorded 35 tackles, one tackle for loss, one interception and eight pass breakups.

Arnette possesses good awareness in space and isn’t afraid to come down and lower his shoulder in the backfield. His lack of speed could hurt him against speedy receivers, but he projects as a corner who can play both inside and outside.
