I am wondering if I am investing too much in OL 29. O'Cyrus Torrence OG Florida 43. Lukas Van Ness EDGE Iowa 56. Darnell Wright OT Tennessee 72. Blake Freeland OT BYU 129.

This Jets team could not possibly invest too much in the OL in the 2023 draft. It's time to take off and nuke it from orbit. Just to be sure. If I was running the Jets I'd trade the 13 down and make sure to get at least 2 OL, a TE and a RB in this draft and still have room to take a LB and a S. I'd spend the 7th round pick on a QB or a PR/KR.
I did just that, didn't I? Maybe Oluwatimi was an overkill (I don't think it is - McGovern is gone in my eyes), but I addressed all the things you mentioned, with the emphasis on early OL picks. Lukas - I had to grab him. He looks like a 1st round edge rusher in my eyes, and with the departure of Lawson imminent, I had to bite when I saw the chance.
Nothing wrong with Oluwatimi from the 112 on. I think he might be gone by 145. Also if the Jets take Skoronski in the 1st they might want to avoid taking another Center after that. Skoronski has a very high upside as a conversion to Center.
Probably you are confused with a different mock. I didn't have a chance to pick Skoronski in the mock you attached your reply to. I traded down again because he was gone.
I usually try to trade down, but I had to bite on this. 13. Paris Johnson Jr. OT Ohio State 43. Bryan Bresee DT Clemson 74. Zach Charbonnet RB UCLA 112. Tyler Steen OT Alabama 145.

Been trying out TDN's MDM lately (they're revamping it prior to the draft this year so it's still in Beta testing). How would you guys feel about this haul? 13) Broderick Jones OT UGA 44) John Michael Schmitz IOL Minnesota 45) (TRADE UP: 75th overall + '24 3rd + '24 5th for 45th overall) Anthony Richardson QB Florida 113) Keeanu Benton IDL Wisconsin 146) JL Skinner S Boise State 180) Dee Winters LB TCU Only giving up 2 3's and a 5 seemed like a steal to me to go back up and get a QB with the upside that Richardson has. Think this situation would work out regardless what the Jets decide to do at QB this offseason. Let Richardson sit for a year or two and then re-assess in '24/'25. Seems like a pipe dream though, as I highly doubt either of Richardson or Schmitz makes it to the 2nd round but a man can dream lol

It was hard to not trade back but with a lot being on the line this year, I resisted. 13.

I was just looking at the San Antonio Spurs' draft picks and it reminded me of some of the more trade-y drafts that @James Hasty has done with the simulator. https://fanspo.com/nba/teams/Spurs/27/draft-picks

If Balt trades up and we get their 2024 1st, JD would be gangster to pivot and make Lamar and offer Balt wouldn’t match, kneecapping them for next season.
