The Jets’ 4 biggest weaknesses after the 2020 NFL Draft

Jets Wire takes a look at four needs that the Jets still need to address following the 2020 NFL Draft.

Jets general manager Joe Douglas did a nice job addressing needs throughout the 2020 NFL Draft, but there is still work to be done to patch up the remaining holes on New York’s roster.

Not one single draft is going to completely fix a roster. As well as Douglas did in his first draft running the show, it’s going to take more than rookies at positions of need to turn the Jets from a 7-9 team in 2019 to a contender in 2020.

Which positions still need some work? Let’s take a look.

With the addition of Denzel Mims, the Jets now have a decent enough quartet of receivers for Sam Darnold to work with. Decent enough isn’t going to help the Jets achieve a winning record in 2020, though.

What if Mims does not develop as quickly as expected as a rookie? What if Quincy Enunwa succumbs to injuries again? These question marks require New York to go out and add more depth at the position. Josh Doctson and Vyncint Smith have the potential to become contributors, but there is no point in banking on players reaching their potential when veteran free agents still remain on the market.
