When the Jets traded up in the first round to draft Alijah Vera-Tucker at No. 14, it was an aggressive tactic to snag a top-10 player before he came off the board. Sacrificing two third-round picks in the trade was certainly an investment, but the upside with Vera-Tucker on the offensive line is clear. With the USC product projected to line up at left guard, flanking last year's first-rounder Mekhi Becton at left tackle, New York has a two-headed monster up front, holding it down on the left side.
