Dixon has a ton of work to do to develop into a real NFL cornerback, but he reportedly has the work ethic to make the transition. Dixon doesn\u2019t have blazing speed but his 4.4 40 yard dash at Indianapolis is certainly fast enough for the job. It\u2019s not crazy to see this pick as McDougle insurance, the Jets need an eventual starter to come out of this draft, they hope between McDougle and Dixon they will get at least one. One would have to be a psychic to know which of these guys will make it but it\u2019s safe to predict (or hope) that at least one won\u2019t fail.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That leaves the Jets with only two unsigned draft picks Dexter McDougle and Calvin Pryor.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-twitter\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Actually &#8230; TWO of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Jets?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Jets<\/a>&#39; 12 picks remain unsigned: Calvin Pryor AND Dexter McDougle.
