New York Jets mock offseason: 5 moves to get into contention in 2020
Third round (top pick): Bryan Edwards, WR, South Carolina
At every turn of the 2020 NFL Draft, there will be an impact player at the wide receiver position.
Lucky for the Jets, who need a couple, especially if Robby Anderson leaves in free agency.
One of the top value picks at receiver in this year’s draft could wind up being former South Carolina star Bryan Edwards, a four-year starter who has the height, weight, and speed combination to be a stud at the NFL level.
At 6-foot-3, 212 pounds, Edwards has an outstanding catch radius and does a really good job fighting for the ball at the catch point.
Not only does Edwards have good size, but he also plays fast.
Although Edwards needs to improve his route running, he has a legit chance to become a WR1 as a rookie in the NFL and in many draft classes, he would be a sure-fire second-round player.
In this deep of a class, he can be had for the bargain price of a third.
The Jets get a top-flight playmaker at the receiver position in addition to completely overhauling their offensive line, giving them a chance to compete in 2020.
