We interrupt Tebow-mania to bring you Todd McShay's latest mock draft on ESPN.com. In his 4.0 version (Insider content), a two-round mock, McShay predicts the Jets will select Alabama DE/OLB Courtney Upshaw (16th overall) and Clemson DT/DE Brandon Thompson (47th overall). His explanation for Upshaw:

Upshaw is the kind of physical, versatile front-seven player Rex Ryan loaded up on in his days with the Ravens, showing explosiveness and power as a pass-rusher and as a run defender. (Michael) Floyd also would be a consideration here if he were available, and he would be a good complement to Santonio Holmes.

My analysis: No surprise here. On Tuesday at the NFL meetings, Ryan confirmed his interest in Upshaw. Make no mistake, the Jets want a rush linebacker with their first pick. On Wednesday, Ryan attended the South Carolina pro day, where DE/OLB Melvin Ingram worked out for scouts. He's projected as the 13th pick (Cards) in McShay's mock.
