Michael Carter dropping to the fourth round was 'a gift' for the Jets

Posted Jun 26, 2021
The Jets thought they’d never get a chance to draft North Carolina running back Michael Carter after trading both of their third-round picks to move up for Alijah Vera-Tucker. So, when Carter fell in the Jets’ lap in the fourth round with the 107th pick, New York’s war room went wild. Carter is one of the most dynamic rushers in the 2021 running back class. (USA Today)
