j4jets Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 He was on ESPN radio on "The Herd" with Collin Cowherd this morning and here is what he basically said (paraphrasing): "Ideally, I wanted the Jets to get a Guard, and a TE with their first two picks. They way the draft unfolded, nobody expected Dee Milliner to drop to them. Let me tell you, Dee Milliner was THE best corner of the draft and he will be a lockdown corner for years to come. He may not be as good as Revis, but Cro already has taken Revis' spot, so Dee Milliner will be replacing Kyle Wilson who will move inside. Then the DT pick, Richardson is a big body that was the best pass rushing DT of the draft. He can push the pile and guess who plays the Jets twice a year? Brady. Guess what he loves to do? He loves to step in to his throws. With Richardson joining Coples and Mohammed Wilkerson, this group will move the pocket and force Brady not to step in to his throws. These two players were the two best players at their positions." On whether if the Jets will draft a defender early today or not (word to word, I recorded this part): "They could go defense, but I expect them to go offense. I expect them to go outside the football, cuz, look, you have to be able to score points to win football games so I totally expect them to go offense today." His Twitter feed: Ppl talking about Jets not picking offensive skill players in first round....no coincidence that not many skill guys were picked in first round. So the #Giants stocking up on DL is genius but the #Jets do it & it's terrible?!?! I actually like both Jets picks....getting the top corner & a pass-rushing DT is big time. Plenty of offense talent out there for the taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sh4dy15 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 The more I think about it the smarter these picks were! I have heard quotes like this throughout the day and its nice to hear for once about this team. I thought they dropped the ball but it might be because I'm not used to them making smart decisions.

HessStation Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 100 percent on point. Hey I would have taken Warmack and Eifert. But the Jets now have the best DL in football and possibly the best CB tandem once again with an extra $13M to throw around for FAs next year.

They've been taking defensive players for years, not sure how this is any different. If Kyle Wilson didn't suck, people would think that was a great smart decision.

Strangefunk Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 KYLE WILSON WAS A 1st ROUND pick...and yes he is starting to ripen into a BUST...not a good CB...maybe a serviceable nickleback but not a #1 or #2 CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Wilk Richardson Garay and Coples will collapse pockets...

vinnys025 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 I really hope they pick up QB Landry Jones in the 2nd or 3rd round. He's my sleeper and would be better than ALL the QB's on the Jets current roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't go as far as calling him a bust, but he can be a very good nickel back. His every mistake was targeted last year, yet he held the fort pretty good. However, I still think his best suited spot is the nickel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always been a pro-Jet guy. I would like to add, Jets didn't cut him just for cap. He was done as a player and that was evident by him retiring and not sh*tting on our team. In fact, he has defended this team like a true Jet fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's take it easy declaring it the "best line in football". And while I'm slightly less depressed about the choices made last night, I still think we could have gotten batter value if we went maybe Floyd/Star at #9 and then Jarvis Jones at #13. Doing it that way you sure up the D-Line still while adding an impact rusher, something we haven't had since Abraham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's my sleeper and would be better than ALL the QB's on the Jets current roster. I would much rather see them take Glennon in the same area (Late 2nd -Early 4th). But either way they need to grab at least one QB. MOre importantly though they need to get Ertz in the second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of people here - during a routine Jets conspiracy bashing - said that he hated the Jets because they cut him and then they didn't say they wanted to re-sign him. As I recall the dollars & cap stuff wasn't insignificant what with the lockout & the new CBA yet to be ironed out & that whole mess. But it's a little hazy.

That might mean that we should take this with a grain of salt because it could be "anybody but Tannenbaum." OTOH, he was right about the direction the last couple of years, so maybe he is right about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kentucky Jet Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 we were pretty decent with Wilson last year and no pass rush. We tend to dump on the guy because he is not Revis. But he was decent for a #2 CB. He could get better this year with more experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
