CHAD HANSEN School: California | Position: WR Picked: Round 4, 141st overall Height: 6-2 | Weight: 202

What he offers: A size-speed prospect who initially played at Idaho State then walked on at Cal. He led the Pac-12 in receiving last year with 92 catches for 1,249 yards and 11 touchdowns. He has good hands and is a strong runner after the catch. He is not afraid to go across the middle. Should compete for playing time this year in a crowded receivers room. JORDAN LEGGETT School: Clemson | Position: TE Picked: Round 5, 150th overall Height: 6-6 | Weight: 258 What he offers: A two-time finalist for the Mackey Award, given to the nation’s top tight end. Leggett is a big, athletic guy with good hands and ball skills. He is your typical receiver-first tight end who needs to work on his blocking skills. Will get an immediate chance to play at a shallow position on Jets roster.

DYLAN DONAHUE School: West Georgia Position: DE/OLB Picked: Round 5, 181st overall Height: 6-3 | Weight: 248

What he offers: An interestin­g pick from a small school. He is going to be 25 years old when the season starts. He had a long road to the NFL, starting out at NAIA Montana Western, sitting out the 2012 season then going the JUCO route at Palomar College before West Georgia. Had 13.5 sacks last year. Will be a project for new outside linebacker­s coach Kevin Greene. ELIJAH MCGUIRE School: La.-Lafayette Position: RB Picked: Round 6, 188th overall Height: 5-10 | Weight: 214 What he offers: A shifty, speedy runner who can be a good receiver and also possibly help in the return game. He carried the ball 232 times for 1,127 yards and seven touchdowns in 2016 with 29 catches for 238 yards and two touchdowns. A possible future third-down back.

JEREMY CLARK School: Michigan Position: CB Picked: Round 6, 197th overall Height: 6-3 | Weight: 220

What he offers: A developmen­tal player at a position the Jets desperatel­y need help. He is a big cornerback who tore the ACL in his right knee in Michigan’s fourth game last season. Gained 15 pounds from the season to the scouting combine.

DERRICK JONES School: Mississipp­i Position: CB Picked: Round 6, 204th overall

Height: 6-2 | Weight: 188 What he offers: A raw prospect the Jets can mold into a press corner for them. He is going to have to bulk up to play in the NFL and improve as a tackler, but the Jets needed bodies at this position.
