FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The NFL draft board is wide open for Joe Douglas and the New York Jets. And they might end up facing quite the dilemma.
With the 10th overall pick, Douglas could go with another playmaker to help Aaron Rodgers get the Jets into the end zone consistently.
Or, the general manager could target another offensive lineman to make sure the 40-year-old quarterback stays upright after his debut with New York lasted just four plays last season because of a torn Achilles tendon.
“Well, I think this is an unbelievable O-line class,” Douglas said last month at the NFL meetings in Orlando, Florida. “It’s an unbelievable class at quite a few positions. But I think where we are at now, we have great flexibility to go in any direction that we see is best for us moving forward.
“I think it opens the door to a lot of possibilities at 10.”
