Jets find plenty of value in Draft Wire’s new 4-round mock

In the Draft Wire’s latest mock draft, they have the Jets making necessary adjustments to the offensive line while adding key contributors.

Third Round: Khalid Kareem | EDGE | Notre Dame

In this situation, it would be idealistic if Joe Douglas figures out the edge situation in free agency with the likes of Dante Fowler Jr. or Matthew Judon.

Khalid Kareem, coming off a senior season in which he recorded 46 total tackles, six sacks, 10 TFLs, three forced fumbles and 11 quarterback hits, projects to be a player who can come in as a complementary piece at defensive end.

While Kareem played as a 4-3 defensive end in college, the Jets and Gregg Williams primarily run a 3-4 defense, although the defensive coordinator claims they can play multiple schemes interchangeably.

It will be interesting to see if New York would look at Kareem as a 3-4 edge rusher or a defensive end if this projection comes to fruition.
