will Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Let's not overly praise the Steelers or Pats. DeCastro is a guard, and this is about where the best guards usually get drafted. It's a fine pick but nothing special. And the Pats took Jones, a guy who's extremely athletic but hasn't put it together yet on the field, and Hightower, who is not known to have great lateral speed (not unlike Harris). Solid picks but I'm happy enough that the Jets took a rangy strong player who is versatile and has a very high ceiling. I'm drinking the bright green Koolaid!!!

SenorGato Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yup. I love what they've done on D starting with hiring Wade Phillips... he's done another amazing job there. Piling up athletes/pass rushers in that front 7...Watt, Smith, Barwin, Mercilus, Reed I guess, whoever else.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointman Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Exactly. If we stayed put or hell, even dropped back and picked hightower, our fans would have bugged out. Not me. I try to be optimistic. I just was weary of Coples of all the options. Literally the one guy I was iffy on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionelRichie Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 the Jets drafted a day 1 starter, 3 down player, and Coples is instantly the best pass rusher on the team. what is not to like here? Ingram was a great college player, so was Ty Detmer. What position would Ingram even play for the Jets? The Jets put out mis-information that they wanted Ingram in hopes that someone would move up for Ingram and leave Coples on the board, this is the kid they wanted the entire time.

SenorGato Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Smith I want to like but I just don't...Loved him when he was a 4th and no one talked about him, and I guess nothing changed but hype. Has the numbers.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenorGato Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Ok Jenkins is a nice player but really? Point they not only brought Coples in but worked him out at his pro day IIRC... jets showed a ton of interest and he even said they told him he would be he pick if he was there at 16 (on the radio according to forumz). Coples is going to be a nasty player here...Hand picked by Rex Ryan as his pass rusher with EVERYONE available? Um, **** yes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionelRichie Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 WR ? or 2 ? rookie wr's rarely contribute. I think the Jets will roll with holmes, kerley, and schilenz and use a lot more 2 TE formations with Keller / Cumberland Not to mention Tebow and the ground and pound.
