South Carolina. Jaycee Horn. 23. player. Pick Analysis. CB. 30. Scouting Report
(Pick via Seattle Seahawks):The New York Jets made what I consider to be the best hire at head coach this offseason. Not many of the names really seemed to be ‘wow’ hires, but the selection of Robert Saleh could be exactly that. And while he’s got his new starting quarterback now in Justin Fields — who we took at No. 2 overall — he does still need to reload his defense in the Big Apple.
With their second pick in this opening round, he begins to do just that as he lands South Carolina cornerback Jaycee Horn. The son of former Saints receiver Joe Horn, Jaycee is a potential lockdown corner who really took a massive step forward this season.
24. 55. Pick Analysis. RB. Alabama. Najee Harris. player. Scouting Report
There have been many mocks giving the Pittsburgh Steelers a new offensive tackle which is a need for them. However, they could also go in a completely different direction and take some of the pressure off their passing game. James Connor has been decent but the Steelers are a team that is at their best when their running backs are dominant. Here, they try and get back to that with the selection of Najee Harris from Alabama.
At 6-foot-2 and 230-pounds, Harris is a load and he went off this season for the Tide. He finished with 1,891 total yards and 30 touchdowns while proving he can get it done as a power back and through the air as well — evidenced by his 43 receptions.
It appears Ben Roethlisberger is going to return for 2021 and having a player such as Harris to share the burden with will make things much easier for him.
