New York Jets QB Ryan Fitzpatrick could have more depth behind him after the NFL Draft. Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News said it would not be surprising if the Jets selected a quarterback at some point in the draft, adding that they wouldn’t hesitate to draft a quarterback with their No. 20 overall pick if they were strongly convicted with someone still on the board.
