4. Jets – Kayvon Thibodeaux, Edge Rusher, Oregon
Thibodeaux may be less certain than Hutchison, which is why he falls to fourth place while Hutchison takes first place overall. But the former Oregon pass-rusher has a lot of potentials. That’s why the Jets can’t afford to pass on him if he’s available with the fourth overall pick. Most people anticipate the Jets drafting an offensive player to assist their young quarterback. New York, on the other hand, has four of the first 28 picks and nine picks in the first five rounds. This allows them to find offensive help and apprehend Thibodeaux.

5. Giants – Ikem Ekwonu, Offensive Tackle, NC State
The Giants have tried and failed for years to put together a solid offensive line. Whether Daniel Jones or someone else is the long-term quarterback, the G-Men must improve at the line of scrimmage. Even after spending a first-round choice in 2020 on Andrew Thomas, the Giants’ offensive line is far from complete. Ekwonu will provide them with variety. In college, he played tackle and guard and was a powerful force for NC State in 2021. Wherever the Giants have a need on the offensive line, they can quickly fill it with Ekwonu.
