This should be the time when we’re all getting fired up over Trevor Lawrence coming to New York, and now all the pressure in the world will be on Zach Wilson to be amazing. The Jets are going to take the BYU quarterback over Mac Jones, Trey Lance, Justin Fields and Davis Mills, and they’re going to do it at the 2.
It’s not Wilson’s fault that the franchise missed out on the No. 1 overall pick by winning late, but it’ll be New York’s fault if it doesn’t nail this pick cold.
Just get players. Don’t worry about fits and needs and parts to the puzzle. If you’re picking at the 2, you obviously need an upgrade just about everywhere. However, getting a corner, a pass rusher, and a wide receiver is a must. That puts the spotlight at the 23. That’s where the game-changing target for Wilson or a lock-down corner has to come.
For most teams, having two fifth-rounders and two in the sixth would mean it’s time to create packages. For the Jets, it’s about bringing in lots and lots and lots of options in a strength in numbers sort of way. Get one contributor out of those last four picks, and it’ll be a win.
