Jets Reportedly Eye Mason Graham, Jalon Walker, Jahdae Barron amid Tyler Warren Buzz

While many expect the New York Jets to target an offensive addition with the No. 7 pick in Thursday's NFL draft, one expert feels that the team is looking at the other side of the ball.

During Monday's episode of The McShay Show, draft guru Todd McShay revealed that while the Jets have been linked to Penn State tight end Tyler Warren and Missouri offensive tackle Armand Membou, first-year head coach Aaron Glenn's defensive background could influence the team to go in a different direction.

"I think the Jets could be a surprise team," McShay said around the 32:00 mark. "I think Tyler Warren is in play, but I think this is Aaron Glenn, and I think this is a defense that's good and has talent, but they want to be exceptional. I think that they could go defense with this pick."

McShay went on to name Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham, Georgia linebacker Jalon Walker and Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron as potential targets for the Jets.

B/R's NFL Scouting Department predicted in its mock draft that Membou would be New York's selection at No. 7. However, the team has multiple holes to fill on both sides of the ball as Glenn and new general manager Darren Mougey try to rebuild the roster.

Depending on how the draft board plays out ahead of them, the Jets could simply pick the best player available when they're on the clock. New York will be picking from a talented group of prospects, so the team should choose the player who can make the biggest impact over the long run.
