I’d be curious to know which small school guy we had higher, Clark or Bartch

Glad to have him. We need some real OL depth that can develop into starters

I'm glad we didn't draft Bartch after hearing about that nasty derriere smoothie he chugged to get fat

Breakdown from the Athletic

Quote
Selection: Cameron Clark, OT, Charlotte
The pick: Fourth round, 129th overall
Past selections at No. 129: CB Isaiah Johnson (Raiders), OT Will Richardson (Jaguars), OT David Sharpe (Raiders), DB Derrick Kindred (Browns), LB Jake Ryan (Packers)

What it means: You just knew Mekhi Becton wouldn’t be the only lineman drafted by the Jets this year. And Clark, whom the Jets selected in the fourth, has the two traits Douglas covets the most: Versatility and dependability. He started the last three years at Charlotte and has experience playing all five positions on the offensive line. While Clark (6-4, 308) said he prefers tackle, his future in the NFL is likely at guard.

Douglas says: “Another kid who was a leader in his program. I love his tenacity. I love his mentality. I love the way he finishes.”

Dane says: A three-year starter at Charlotte, Clark lined up at left tackle in the head coach Will Healy’s spread offense. He was considered a free agent NFL prospect by teams last summer, but he answered several questions as a senior and his 2019 Clemson tape alone should get his name called on draft weekend. Despite multiple offensive line coaches over his Charlotte career, Clark is fundamentally sound with his movements and is rarely caught off guard, staying in a ready position. NFL-level speed off the edge will stress him, which is why kicking inside to guard might be the best long-term plan. Overall, Clark wins with his cerebral, technical approach, but he also has a physical side to him, projecting as a developmental interior blocker with starting upside.

Assessing the position: The Jets added bodies to their offensive line room this offseason. But just free-agent signing Connor McGovern and first-round pick Mekhi Becton were guaranteed spots on the roster beyond 2020. Clark gives the team a player to develop and potentially step in as a starter next year.

All for adding linemen, especially tackles, where else we getting them? Pretty sure Jason Fabini was a mid round pick, started for our good Parcells teams.

Once we got Becton I was pretty happy, IMO pressure was off getting another lineman in the draft so I'm glad we didn't reach or trade additional picks for another.

I think we needed at least one developmental OL from this draft, particularly at guard. All of our guard options are short-term solutions.

Clark is that guy. You hope he can play in 2021 or 2022.

Becton is here because the OL lacked impact players and he can be one.

Kiper said he thinks Clark can compete for a spot in 2020. Given our interior OL depth chart, I agree.

He’s also played all 5 positions and from what I’ve read technique is pro-ready.

I just think when your primary concern about your blue chip first round pick is his conditioning, drafting his workout partner is an extremely clever way to provide a positive support net.  Especially during an offseason when he can't work out with team trainers.

If we got a player, that's obviously pretty great too.

I think it would be kind of questionable if a 4th round rookie tackle converting to guard is going to successfully compete with 3 guards making 6 + million, two of whom are on new contracts and one of whom we could save basically the entirity of his salary.

That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying if we decided that several guys were worth a good chunk of change, they should be more than capable of beating out a middle round rookie who is a developmental prospect switching positions.

You use the resources you have to acquire talent and then play the best talent. Veterans on the free agent market are going to cost money but it doesn't guarantee them a starting job. They should beat out a rookie, yes, but that's what camp is for.

The operative term here is “should”

The best thing for us is that Clark shows up to camp and smokes Winters, GVR and Lewis and earns a starting gig. If that happens (unlikely IMO) but I’d rather him be a RG that way we don’t have 2 rookies as the left side of our line. But if Clark is good enough, it might be a problem worth having to work througb

based on the fear that took place for his life the day he got hurt, I don't think anyone should be surprised this happened in the end. It sucks, and we have no idea if he ever would have made it off the bench, but its better (for him and for us) to know now rather than in training camp that he has to hang up the cleats.
