ainst Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings.Cornerback Buster Skrine and safety Marcus Maye are out for the game Sunday Discount Alexander Mattison Jersey , and cornerback Trumaine Johnson is doubtful to play.Skrine has a concussion that has caused him to miss most of the last two games. Maye is dealing with a broken right thumb. Meanwhile, Johnson 鈥?the Jets' top free-agent signing 鈥?will likely miss his third straight game with a quadriceps injury.The Jets will have to face a Vikings offense that includes wide receiver Adam Thielen, who leads the NFL with 58 receptions and 712 yards receiving. Stefon Diggs has 40 catches for 435 yards, so coach Todd Bowles will have to get creative with his defensive backs."Well, we've got a bunch of guys to play with," Bowles said.Darryl Roberts, who has started the past two games, will see plenty of time again. So will rookie Parry Nickerson, who has filled in at Skrine's slot spot, and Rashard Robinson and Juston Burris.New York could also be short-handed at wide receiver, with Quincy Enunwa having been previously ruled out with a sprained ankle and Terrelle Pryor doubtful with a groin injury.Bowles said "it's possible" the Jets could sign a receiver Friday or Saturday, or promote Deontay Burnett 鈥?a former teammate of quarterback Sam Darnold at USC 鈥?from the practice squad.Linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis (foot) is doubtful, and running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is questionable. Believe it or not, the NFL draft is three weeks away.Since the last time we issued a mock draft roundup, the NFL’s free agency period began. The Minnesota Vikings didn’t necessarily make a big splash — mainly bringing back some players.They also added offensive lineman Josh Kline, but even so, mock drafters are still mainly stuck on the Vikings adding an offensive lineman in the first round. Just who that lineman will be, though, is up for debate.Of course, not everyone thinks Minnesota will take an offensive lineman with that top pick. Scroll down to check out all the prognostications.Note: Some drafts do more than one round. As always, when including a mock we used last time, we’ve also added the previous prediction so you can see how things changed (or not).Here’s the third roundup of mock drafts from around the web:More Vikings coveragePhotos of the Week: 7/21/19 – 7/27/19Rookie Bradbury is central figure to Vikings’ overhauled offensive lineVikings depth at cornerback being tested, Hughes still not clearedPlayers to watch at Minnesota Vikings 2019 training campTop Tweets: Vikings WR Diggs makes push for All-NFL Style TeamDraftTek (7 rounds): Round 1 — Noah Fant, TE, Iowa; Round 2 — J.J.

Ford can help them as a guard or a tackle.” <em>Previously: Greg Little, OT, Mississippi.</em>Eddie Brown of the San Diego Union-Tribune (3 rounds): Round 1 — Cody Ford, OG, Oklahoma; Round 2 — Dre’Mont Jones, DT, Ohio State; Round 3 — Devin Singletary, RB, FAU. <em>Previously (2 rounds): Round 1 — David Edwards, OT, Wisconsin; Round 2 — Oshane Ximines ,OLB, Old Dominion.</em>Don Banks of Patriots.com: Andre Dillard, OT, Washington State. “I’m old enough to remember when the Vikings had a Pro Bowl-studded offensive line and didn’t seem in perpetual need at the position. (Yeah, I know, it was in the late ‘90s. But like I said, I’m old). Dillard is a strong pass blocker who can start as a rookie tackle and his athleticism should allow him to refine his run blocking skills once he’s in the NFL.” <em>Previously: Cody Ford, OL, Oklahoma.</em>Chad Reuter of NFL.com (4 rounds): Round 1 — Chris Lindstrom, OG, Boston College; Round 2 — Charles Omenihu, DE, Texas; Round 3 — Deionte Thompson, S, Alabama; Round 4 — Bryce Love, RB, Stanford. <em>Previously: Round 1 — Ed Oliver, DT, Houston; Round 2 — David Edwards, OT, Wisconsin; Round 3 — Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, S, Florida.</em>Dan Kadar of SB Nation: Andre Dillard, OT, Washington State. “Drafting a true offensive tackle like Dillard would move veteran Riley Reiff to the inside. That might be the smarter move for Minnesota than taking a guard like Chris Lindstrom of Boston College. Reiff should be able to handle the move and upgrade the run blocking while Dillard can be a long-term fix for pass protection.” <em>Previously:</em> <em>Clelin Ferrell, DE, Clemson.</em>Vinnie Iyer of the Sporting News: Cody Ford, OL, Oklahoma. “The Vikings desperately need to improve their interior blocking around center Pat Elflein. Ford is a raw lineman better suited for guard who can first be a big asset in run blocking before rounding into a physical pass protector. Dalvin Cook and Kirk Cousins should approve.” <em>Previously: Jonah Williams, OT, Alabama</em>Walter Cherepinsky of WalterFootball.com (6 rounds): Round 1 — Cody Ford, OL, Oklahoma; Round 2 — Germaine Pratt, LB, NC State; Round 3 — L.J.

Dillard needs to develop power as a run-blocker, but as a blindside protector, he has everything you want—from the quickness to snap and adjust to edge-rushers, to the intelligence and fast-twitch reflexes to take on games and stunts.” <em>Previously: Greg Little, OT, Mississippi.</em>Charles Davis of NFL.com: T.J. Hockenson, TE, Iowa.Will Brinson of CBSSports.com: Jonah Williams, OL, Alabama. “The Vikings need help on the offensive line and they also want to run the ball, what better way than to add a former Nick Saban standout and a guy who surprisingly fell this far given earlier placement in most mocks.” <em>Previously:</em> Cody Ford, OL, Oklahoma.Ryan Wilson of CBSSports.com (3 rounds): Round 1 — Cody Ford, OL, Oklahma; Round 2 — Jeffery Simmons, DT, Mississippi State; Round 3 — J.J.

Once again, Cody Ford garnered the most selections, this time with 12. Andre Dillard was chosen seven times and Jonah Williams five. But the other two players who were picked twice were not offensive linemen — Noah Fant and Christian Wilkins. One more reason to love mock draft season.<em>Dave Heller</em><em> is the author of </em><em>Ken Williams: A Slugger in Ruth’s Shadow</em><em> (a Larry Ritter Book Award nominee), </em><em>Facing Ted Williams – Players From the Golden Age of Baseball Recall the Greatest Hitter Who Ever Lived</em><em> and </em><em>As Good As It Got: The 1944 St. Louis Browns</em>
