2020 NFL Draft: Best available players heading into day three

by Site Admin

The Jets are scheduled to make the 14th, 19th and 23rd pick today and then three more selections later on. Here - via NBC Sports - are the 20 highest rated players still remaining:

LB Akeem Davis-Gaither, App State

T Hakeem Adeniji, Kansas

CB Reggie Robinson, Tulsa

DB Amik Robertson, Louisiana Tech

IOL Netane Muti, Fresno State

EDGE Curtis Weaver, Boise State

OL Cameron Clark, UNC Charlotte

DB L’Jarius Sneed, Louisiana Tech

DB Troy Pride, Notre Dame

CB Josiah Scott, Michigan State

T Saahdiq Charles, LSU

OL Ben Bartch, St. Johns

EDGE Trevis Gipson, Tulsa

T Prince Tega Wanogho, Auburn

CB John Reid, Penn State

QB Jacob Eason, Washington

WR Darnell Mooney, Tulane

WR John Hightower, Boise State

IDL Leki Fotu, Utah

S K’Von Wallace, Clemson

At this stage the Jets may simply opt for a best player available approach, but if they do look to address needs, these are players they might have interest in later on:

EDGE Khalid Kareem, Notre Dame

CB Bryce Hall, Virginia

WR Antonio Gandy-Golden, Liberty

CB Darnay Holmes, UCLA

CB Kindle Vildor, Georgia Southern

WR Donovan Peoples-Jones, Michigan

WR KJ Hill, Ohio State

CB Rashard Robinson, JMU

WR Tyler Johnson, Minnesota

EDGE Alton Robinson, Syracuse

IOL Tyler Biadasz, Wisconsin

EDGE Bradlee Anae, Utah

C Nick Harris, Washington

IOL Kevin Dotson, ULL

CB Essang Bassey, Wake Forest

Finally, some players who could address lesser needs:

  • Backup Quarterbacks Jake Fromm (Georgia), Jacob Eason (Washington) or Anthony Gordon (Washington State);
  • Running Backs Jason Huntley (New Mexico State), Anthony McFarland (Maryland) or JJ Taylor (Arizona);
  • Tight Ends Albert Okwuegbunam (Missouri) or Harrison Bryant (FAU); and
  • Interior Defensive linemen Jason Strowbridge (UNC), Malcolm Roach (Texas) or James Lynch (Baylor).

Look for them to perhaps target a kicker or punter in the late rounds or certainly in undrafted free agency too.
