The Jets were always going to have options at No. 7; they have needs all over the roster, and especially for a big playmaker. And they could have picked Penn State tight end Tyler Warren, or Arizona receiver Tetairoa McMillan: both were still on the board.

Last year, the Jets added to their offensive line by selecting tackle Olu Fashanu 11th overall in the NFL draft. History has repeated itself as Gang Green again chose an offensive lineman in the first round.
