We had Tristan Wirfs rated higher, and Becton's weight control will be an issue, but new GM Joe Douglas' first pick is a massive gamble on upside. Becton has a rare, generational combination of size and athleticism – with elements of his game that need cleaning up.

Passing on a WR in Round 1 pays off for the Jets, as Mims surprisingly becomes the 13th wideout taken. He’s clearly more talented than that, and in a normal year he might have been a late first-round candidate. Mims does round out his routes, and his hands are a bit shaky at times. But he’s a jump-ball specialist who can help Sam Darnold downfield. Give Mims time and he could be a really nice addition.

Gregg Williams has a safety he can play 40 or 50 yards off the ball (kidding). But really, Davis has the elite range to handle single-high assignments well and allow Jamal Adams to move up more into the box. Although Davis might not be a great playmaker, he’s a full-tilt defender who also is a threat on returns with that game-changing speed. Not sure what this means, though. Safety was supposedly one of the Jets’ strong suits.

I wouldn’t have guessed Zuniga would go ahead of his Gators teammate Jonathan Greenard, but Zuniga is the more athletically gifted of the two. He’s not a creative rusher and has been held back by injuries, but he has a chance to develop into a sack threat in the NFL. Zuniga made plays when he was on the field and has a rocked-up physique.
