The New York Jets, who initially selected offensive tackle Armand Membou with the seventh overall pick, later drafted LSU tight end Mason Taylor in the second round, addressing their need for a tight end. Taylor, the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Jason Taylor, had limited college production with only six touchdowns and a maximum of 546 yards in a season, but his athleticism and size at 6-foot-5, 251 pounds made him an appealing choice. If Mason Taylor’s career resembles his father’s, the Jets will be thrilled with their pick.
