Cornerback Cameron Dantzler will also be off the board at some point during Day 2 of the draft. He defended 20 passes in three seasons in Starkville with five interceptions and 108 total tackles.

Dantzler will likely be an early third-round selection where a team that could be a perfect fit is set to draft: the New York Jets.

With Tom Brady out of the AFC East, the Jets will be in the postseason race in 2020 and currently need help at corner with no true second starter outside of Brian Poole.

Dantzler could compete to start from day one and help bolster a Jets secondary that already has one of the games’ best safeties in Jamal Adams.

Projection: Third round (Jets)
