The Jets appear to have narrowed down their options for the second overall pick in April\u2019s draft to edge defenders Arvell Reese<\/strong> and David Bailey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Reese looked as if it would emerge as a transparent favorite earlier this week, as noted by PFR\u2019s own Adam La Rose. Nonetheless, NFL Network\u2019s Daniel Jeremiah and ESPN\u2019s Peter Schrager<\/a> imagine that Bailey will likely be the Jets\u2019 alternative on draft day.<\/p>\n

\u201cBailey is a rather more polished pass rusher,\u201d<\/em> Jeremiah explained. \u201cHe\u2019s the more known commodity, whereas with Reese, you\u2019re planing the upside game and hoping what you\u2019re going to get.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Schrager and Jeremiah then said they’ve each heard that the Jets prefer Bailey as a \u201cbird within the hand\u201d pick \u2013 a more pro-ready, polished prospect who will immediately upgrade Latest York\u2019s pass rush. But Brian Costello of the Latest York Post<\/a> threw some cold water on that projection, arguing that their source was probably coming from outside quite than contained in the organization.<\/p>\n

It seems, subsequently, that the Jets have yet to lock of their alternative for the No. 2 pick. With two weeks until the draft, they still have loads of time to settle what appears to be a two-man race. Jeremiah compared the Jets\u2019 alternative to the Jaguars\u2019 in 2022.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt jogs my memory a lot of the [Aidan] Hutchinson<\/a><\/strong>\u2013Travon Walker<\/strong> debate,\u201d<\/em> he said. \u201c\u2018Hutch\u2019 is the higher pass rusher straight away and Travon Walker was this physical freak who\u2019s not there yet, but you\u2019re hoping he\u2019s going to get there. Now, each of them have been really good pros. In that scenario, the higher athlete went ahead of the more polished player.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

On this case, though, he believes that the alternative will occur. Bailey has more experience as an edge rusher in comparison with Reese, who primarily played off-ball linebacker at Ohio State and might want to develop a pass rush repertoire within the NFL. Bailey already has a full set of moves and a gameplan for how one can use them to get to opposing passers. And as Hutchinson shows, having a high floor doesn’t mean that there’s a low ceiling when it comes to upside.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
