In mock draft season, sometimes the shock factor is considered the No. 1 objective.
In Pro Football Focus’ most recent mock, it appears that this is the case.
Round 1
PFF has the New York Jets selecting edge rusher Lukas Van Ness from Iowa at No. 13 overall. Here is their reasoning:
Carl Lawson only has one year left on his current contract, and Van Ness racked up 46 total pressures from 271 pass-rushing snaps last season.
This pick is befuddling for a number of reasons, starting with the fact that the Jets already have Jermaine Johnson, Micheal Clemons, Bryce Huff, and John Franklin-Myers on the edge.
