    I will place some descriptions of other writters on the descriptions and add some if i feel the need by the little film i watched of most prospects.

    Round 1 Reuben Foster ILB

    Foster is a vicious hitter with elite playmaking range and an ability. Athleticism gives him cover ability that former teammate Reggie Ragland never possessed. Has Pro Bowl potential as a 3-4 inside linebacker. Him and Darron lee will put this position to rest for a long time.



    Round 2 AdoreƩ Jackson FS/CB/PR/KR

    The more film i watch i belive in 2/3 years he can be an elite free safety , a lot of impact on special teams and maybe offense and some at corneback too the reason im not a fan of him as a corner is that in press he gets beat very good in zone coverage using his elite genetics.



    Round 3 Joe Mixon RB

    Mixon has the talent to be an every-down, all-day running back with the potential to take over a game on the ground or through the air. I forgive him for that incident and i think by this time is the right take to take a chance on him. Elite RB prospect first round talent.



    Round 4 comp Pick Antonio Garcia OT

    Consistently playing below 300 pounds, his lanky frame is the first thing that gets noticed. But his positive attributes show up on tape more than his weaknesses. Mass and functional strength are concerns and he still needs plenty of technical work, but a team could look to draft and stash him based on his starter's traits and ability. An OT who needs some work

    Round 5 John Toth Center

    Toth is a tough, four-year starter. Will appeal to teams looking for centers who can operate in a power-based rushing scheme. While he's better in a phone booth than on the move, he understands his limitations and does a good job of staying within himself. He's not the best athlete at the position but his size, arm length, strength and consistency should outweigh that on the next level. Toth has the traits and ability to be an eventual starter in the NFL.

    Round 6 Jeremy Sprinkle TE

    True "Y" tight end with outstanding length and a frame that can handle more weight. Has the toughness to be an NFL blocker, but might need to add more upper- and lower-body strength before he's ready. He's a big, reliable target in the red zone and underneath against zone, but needs a longer runway to create separation in his routes. Sprinkle isn't great in any one area, but he's good in most and should be a safe pick and quality starter in the league.



    Overall late rounds i didnt watch as much film as first ones but i made sure they looked solid .
    I tried to draft the players on their right value hope i wasnt that far off.

    Any suggestions or opinions positive or negative are welcome.

    Thank you for reading

    I didn't watch a lot of college football this past season, so am still getting caught up on prospects, but based on the games I did see, what I've read and videos I've seen in the last month, this could be a very good draft.

    I love the Foster pick. I think he will be a beast in the NFL. I like addressing a FS who can also be a returner. If you're right about Mixon not being a thug, that would be great value in the 3rd round. I really like what I've read about Garcia, but if even half of it is true, especially with the shortage of good OT prospects in this draft, I think he'll likely go in the 3rd if not the 2nd round. Even if he were to last until the 4th round, I don't think he'd make it to the bottom of the round to be a comp pick, but I could be wrong. I've read good things about Toth as well, so would be happy if he lasts until the 5th round. The only pick I don't know anything about is Sprinkle, but he certainly looks pretty good in the video you posted.

    Why no 7th round pick?

    There's no way we can address all our need positions in one draft, but not adding a CB would be pretty huge, and I will be shocked if Mac doesn't get one at some point for Bowles and the D. I think some fans would freak if the Jets used the 1st two picks on D, even with your using the next 4 all on offense, but I wouldn't if we could add Foster and Jackson or a CB.

    I think the other thing that some might have problems with is that with the exception of Foster, Mixon and perhaps Toth, the other half of the players you picked seem to be projects. Jackson would need to learn to play the FS position. Garcia would need to put on weight and get stronger. Sprinkle gets to need stronger. Do you think any of those three could start in their rookie season?

    Overall, interesting and a good job.

    This would be beyond awesome if we managed to pull this off. ..this team would be well on its way if we just find a qb

    I liked Garcia's measurables and started to get excited about the idea of drafting him but what I read about his senior bowl practice performance (and evaluations) seemed unimpressive.

    I can't say that your draft would be bad, but it's definitely slanted towards the "D", and I think it has to be slanted towards the "O", especially at the skill positions. I think you can address the offense with the first couple of picks and then improve the defense. I would take Watson or Mahomes, or if not one of them, Fournette or Cook, or maybe Howard. Then with the 2nd pick ideally a LT, but the best OL available. Then I would start looking at edge rushers or DBs whichever was the BPA for the next two picks.

    Hey overall i understand your points , and tbh i i havent checked enough players of the bottom of the draft to make a 7th round pick in March i might make a new one with it. On the other hand i believe all this players will get playing time definitely Jackson ( he is not a scrub corner i just think since he got great range and tackles well he could be a even better safety , his problem is mechanics when he is in press man coverage thats the reason he will slide to the 2nd round) Foster and Mixon are starters only doubt i got is Garcia , our tight end position is so bad that Sprinkle could maybe start.

    I love defense so its hard for me to take a risk on these QBS since they not sure things and pass on guys like Rueben Foster , Jamal Adams , Derek Barnett. Also i dont like taking RBs in the first round even tho i like Fournette alot and would understand the pick.

    you think jackson would be available in the second round? I think someone nabs him in the first. Also, alot of people have Garcia going in the second and you have him late 4th

    I belive he will be there day 2 but if he isnt one of these guys below will and im fine with any of this guys istead of him

    Marshon Lattimore
    Teez Tabor
    Marlon Humphrey
    Sidney Jones
    Tredavious White
    Gareon Conley
    Jourdan Lewis
    Desmond King Safety
    Bhuda Baker Safety

    Its a loaded DB class so someone has to slide to the second round

    as for Antonio Garcia maybe because of his quick feet he will get drafted earlier but he needs to gain more mass isnt Pro Ready and most teams want OTs for yesterday. So maybe he might slide

    I would be fine with the picks you listed. Foster is going to be a star in the NFL. Mixon can be a soid starter...if he drops that far Jets have to think about it.

    Antonio Garcia is probably going in the second round. No way he lasts to the fourth round. Rueben Foster going to be a beast, but no way he goes at 6.

    If not Reuben Foster i would be pleased with Jamal Adams , and i think Garcia will fall because of his lack of strenght

    How will the Jets score? We have ZERO QB on the team. Maybe we should start there.

    I understand you but i dont see watson and kizer as franchise qbs , didnt watch mahomes tape yet . Trubisky looks great but one year is too small sample for the #6h overall pick. Thats just my opinion.

    Kizer sucks and I wouldn't take him as a UDFA. Watson is kinda small at 6'2 and I wouldn't take him at #6. I like Mahomes in the 2nd. But if he shines at the combines he might make it to the bottom of the 1st.
