Blewett’s Blitz now turns its attention to CeeDee Lamb and asks the question, “Should the New York Jets consider him at No. 11?”
A wide receiver versus an offensive lineman. It’s no contest.
The free-reeling, highlight-making package the wide receiver brings to the SportsCenter table forces all fans to usually side with the wideout. After all, it’s that man who touches the ball, scores the touchdowns and snags all the headlines.
Without a legitimate offensive line, however, that wideout does nothing. And New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas understands that fundamental team-building notion perfectly.
It doesn’t mean he’ll automatically select a big heavy at No. 11 in the 2020 NFL Draft, virtual style. Wide receivers such as Jerry Jeudy and CeeDee Lamb—the subject of the newest Blewett’s Blitz Film REview—are very much in play.
Should Lamb be a legitimate option for the Jets at No. 11?
