It’s likely that the Jets select an offensive tackle with the 11th pick in the 2020 NFL draft, but that will not deter Jets general manager Joe Douglas from continuing to address the position later in the draft.

Douglas told reporters on a conference call earlier this week, that “there is a shortage of quality offensive linemen in the NFL.” He did his best to revamp New York’s line by signing Greg Van Roten, Connor, McGovern and Josh Andrews, as well as re-upping Alex Lewis and retaining Brian Winters. However, the Jets still lack depth at tackle with only George Fant, Chuma Edoga and Connor McDermott on the depth chart.

Douglas has to address Gang Green’s depth problem at tackle. What better way to do it than by stockpiling talent at the position? With that being said, let’s take a look at some offensive tackle prospects the Jets could target in the later rounds of the draft.

Matt Peart, UConn

Peart is a swing tackle prospect with outstanding size and length at 6-foot-7, 318-pounds. A former basketball player in high school, he made the switch over to the offensive line, just like George Fant did.

Peart spent his first two seasons at UConn on the left side of the offensive line. As a junior, he moved over to the right side, where he started all 24 games in his final two years playing for the Huskies. The transition was a seamless one, as Peart earned a first-team All-American Athletic Conference selection as a senior.

The UConn product is a project with his raw skill set, but he could be worth taking a flier on considering Joe Douglas’ emphasis on finding athletic offensive linemen with positional versatility.
