The NFL Draft is just days away. Who are the Dolphins going to take first overall? Who will draft Darren McFadden? How long will Matt Ryan have to wait to hear his name called? I attempt to answer those questions by projecting the first round with my final NFL Mock Draft.
6. New York Jets
Team Needs: CB, WR, S
Bullz-Eye’s Pick: Vernon Gholston, DE/OLB, Ohio State
Gholston played defensive end at OSU, but he has the size and athleticism to make the transition to outside linebacker at the next level. The Jets could use him in the same capacity as the Cowboys use DeMarcus Ware and the Chargers use Shawne Merriman – as a sideline-to-sideline, pass-rushing monster.
Devil’s Advocate: If Darren McFadden slips past the Raiders at No. 5, it’s doubtful he’ll get past the Jets with this pick. The Jets could also look at a cornerback like Leodis McKelvin or Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.
At least 30 of the 31 picks should be right, so you might want to check it out.
