Jets Select Juston Burris With the 118th Pick in the 2016 NFL Draft

The Jets have selected Juston Burris with the 118th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, a cornerback from NC State.

Burris has a reputation for being a physical corner. He also has a good reputation in run support.  In Todd Bowles' defense cornerbacks are important. He wants players at the position who can hold up one on one while pressing at the line of scrimmage. He does not have elite measurables, which is why he fell to day three.

You can definitely see why the Jets would want him and project him for the defensive system. He has the skillset the team looks for in cornerbacks. It is going to be on the coaching and player development team. If nothing else, it shows the front office and coaching staff are on the same page when it comes to the attributes it wants at given positions.

Burris was a three year starter with the Wolfpack.
