When it comes to the NFL Draft, there’s long been a polarizing debate: do you draft for need, or do you take the best player available, regardless of position?
For the New York Jets, drafting for need this year means offensive line. Sitting at the 13th overall pick in the draft makes that a potential possibility, but far from a guarantee—if none of Peter Skoronski, Broderick Jones, or Paris Johnson Jr. is available for the Jets at No. 13 (as is the case in Bucky Brooks’ latest mock draft), looking elsewhere might be the most prudent move.
So who exactly should the Jets look at if the top prospects at their biggest need are all off the board by the time they go on the clock?
