Which 2020 NY Jets draft pick will improve the most in 2021?
Denzel Mims
First off, let’s make it clear that Mekhi Becton must be excluded from this exercise. As the highest-drafted member of the New York Jets‘ 2020 draft class and easily its most impressive player as a rookie, Becton clearly has a better chance to take a seismic leap than any of his peers.
Denzel Mims is looking to build on a rookie season in which he caught 23 passes for 357 yards in nine games (39.7 yards per game). Mims became just the sixth player in NFL history to post 40+ receiving yards in each of his first six career games before finishing on a cold streak with 33 yards over his final three games.
