NY Jets: Wide receiver is no longer a pressing draft need

The NY Jets enter the 2021 NFL Draft with holes up and down the roster. As was to be expected given the state of the roster following a disastrous 2020 season that saw the team finish 2-14.

General manager Joe Douglas was never going to be able to fill every need on the roster. That said, he did manage to add a host of players who should play key roles in 2021.

One position that was more than adequately addressed was wide receiver. The Jets entered free agency with a gaping hole at the position with just Jamison Crowder and 2020 second-round pick Denzel Mims slotted into starting roles.
