Quincy Wilson, CB
The Jets Achilles heel this season has been the poor play of their secondary — specifically, the cornerback position, where Darrelle Revis has become a shell of his former self.
The Jets need to give the position a serious face-lift and that can start with the fifth overall pick. Quincy Wilson is, arguably, the best corner on the board and he merits top-seven pick consideration.
Wilson hasn’t shown elite speed on film, but his tenacity and lock-down corner abilities would be welcomed in Gotham. Juston Burris has been a pleasant surprise as a fourth round rookie.
And the way he’s playing, he could earn himself a starting nod on next year’s squad. Maybe if the cards fall right he’ll be paired with Wilson on one side and Buster Skrine back to his natural position in the slot.
