Bypass drafting a quarterback at No. 2? Trade back and see if you could still acquire the Oregon offensive tackle?
It’s not exactly a route many Jets fans would love considering the wide-ranged desire to draft BYU’s Zach Wilson. However, it would be one that’s beneficial toward protecting Sam Darnold, who would likely be playing quarterback in this hypothetical scenario.
If the Jets were to draft Penei Sewell, they would be employing their bookend offensive tackles (hopefully) for years to come. 2020 first-round pick Mekhi Becton is an up-and-coming star at left tackle while right tackle George Fant is increasing in age and has just two years remaining on his current deal.
