Jets should not waste a pick drafting a tight end

In the 2017 NFL Draft, the New York Jets seemed to fill a big need on their offense when they drafted tight end Jordan Leggett out of Clemson. However, the top prospect saw no playing time in the regular season. Instead, they used Austin Sefarian-Jenkins.

Seeing as Sefarian-Jenkins was struggling at the time, both on and off the field, this seemed like a bad decision. But, fortunately for the Jets, it actually turned out well. However, he is no longer on the team, which means the Jets have to go with another option.
