NY Jets 7-round mock draft: But every pick is analytics-based

Related Topics: New York Jets, Antonio Johnson

We’re going to construct a complete seven-round New York Jets mock draft – with a twist. Each pick is going to be made with analytics as the sole factor.

Throughout the mock draft, I will select the available prospect with the best statistical/analytical profile among the realistic options – I’m not going to reach for a 200th-ranked prospect from an FCS school in the first round. I will limit the options to players who realistically could be selected in that slot.

Positional value and team needs will be taken into account as well. In the early rounds, I will lean toward positions that are considered to be more valuable.
