QUESTION SESSION WITH NFL NETWORK'S DANIEL JEREMIAH

Becton an ‘absolute freak’
QUESTION SESSION WITH NFL NETWORK'S DANIEL JEREMIAH

Q: How deep is the wide receiver class?

A: I’ve got 27 wide receivers with top-three round grades in this draft. And consider average 31 are taken. We had a max of 35 taken in, I believe that was in 2017.

So this is a really phenomenal group of wideouts. Not all those guys are going to go early. They’ll end up spreading throughout the draft. But it’s really a good group.

Q: What do you think of Georgia offensive tackle Andrew Thomas?

A: You mentioned the big left tackle, he’s powerful, he’s dominant in the run game. He can anchor in pass protection. He’s very aware. He’s just on the ground a little bit for me. That was a concern, some of the balance issues.

Q: What are your thoughts on Florida cornerback C.J. Henderson?

A: I think he’s the second best corner in the draft. I think he’ll be the second one to go. He’s just really explosive. He can play press. He can play off. He’s real loose and fluid. He shows the ability to play the ball down the field. Can be a little bit inconsistent there.

The main knock on him is just tackling. He’s just missed way too many tackles. That’s kind of the flaw. He’s going to test very well, very athletic.

Q: What can you tell us about Iowa offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs?

A: I think he’s somebody that has a chance to be an All-Pro guard. And I know he’s played tackle, he’s played on the right and the left. And he’s a good tackle. I think he can play tackle in the NFL. I think he has a chance to be an elite guard. He’s got some issues — oversetting, that can be cleaned up a little bit. I just thought he’d be better if he had neighbors on each side (as a guard).

IN HIS OWN WORDS WITH DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR JEFF ULBRICH - Ulbrich breaks down Jets' defensive personnel

(Marcus Maye) can do it all. I would feel comfortable with him (at free or strong safety). He’s a guy that, to me, he can play deep, he can play the half field, he can play the middle third, he can do that and you feel comfortable with it. I think he’s got range, speed and athleticism. I think he’s got ball skills and instincts to be a deep safety. But I think he’s got enough size and girth and want-to and courage to play in the box. It’ll be fun to utilize all the things that he does. He can cover tight ends; he can cover some of the wide receivers in this league.

Jets hope initiatives will increase winning edge

Aside from adding as many good players as possible to help the Jets improve, coach Robert Saleh and GM Joe Douglas are trying to turn over every stone to find extra ways to give their team a winning edge, and two examples of this were announced over the course of the offseason, with the additions of a game management coach (Matt Burke) and the installation of an Athletic Care and Performance Department. Let’s take a closer look at these two moves and how they might help the Jets:
