30. . CB. Houston. William Jackson III. 20. player

As the Jets still work to get veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick back onto their roster for the 2016 season the team needs to look forward at some other areas which need strengthening.

Some of the teams’ biggest needs support the idea of New York trading up, and at 20th overall there just aren’t guys available who satisfy their biggest ones.

Cornerback William Jackson III from Houston has risen quite steadily since the post season and the combine.  Teaming him up with Darrelle Revis will reload the Jets’ secondary with two physical and athletic corners.

Under the mentoring of Revis, Jackson III has a real chance at becoming one of the best corners in the league.
