Obrien2Toon Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 These would be the perfect, home run 1st 2 picks. People seem to forget that Lee was considered just as good if not better than Watkins up until last year. And was considered a sure fire top 10 pick if not top 5. Then he had the knee injury and USC imploded. Them ASF was guaranteed to be the top TE taken, and be at least a top 20 pick. Then Price was terrible all year along with a slew of injuries on the oline and now he's suddenly not a top guy anymore. So now we could get two guys at 18 and 49 that could of went 7 and 15 if not for circumstances out of their control. Next Jerry Rice and Ben Coats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoicsentry Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 A bit worried about Lee, but still I would be satisfied with those 2 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villain The Foe Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'd be satisfied, but Id be more satisfied with this. I say pick up Colt in the later rounds, get a WR in the 1st and get Jeremiah Attaochu in the 2nd round. We'll have our WR, TE along with a OLB with a high motor. Im not sure if Idzik will think that Colt Lyeria is Jet material though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Been the two guys I've wanted for a couple years now, so I'd be more than happy. ASJ was bothered by a stress fracture all year, which he apparently didn't know about, and still won the Mackey award over guys like Ebron and Amaro. I think he's one of the best red-zone weapons in this draft and is going to be a solid player for the next 10 years. Despite his off the field history, everything that I've heard and read about him is that he's actually a good kid and very active in the community. Also kind of makes me wonder how UW's medical team didn't catch that stress fracture or if he just never went into the trainers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Could they possibly snag Dee Ford in the second and Fiedorowicz in the third? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Could they possibly snag Dee Ford in the second and Fiedorowicz in the third? I think Ford's pro-day will answer that a little better and I can't tell if CJ is actually a good prospect or if we're all over-rating him and he goes in the 5th or something. I'm gonna play it safe and say CJ goes in the 4th, in which case I'd be all for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derp Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I never bought that top 5, top 10 talk for Lee. Think he fits the offense, but I'd prefer they go in a different direction at 18. Would definitely be happy with ASJ in the second or later though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonehands Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I like the positions, just not the choices. At wide receiver, I would like Mike Evans (who will probably be gone) followed by Jordan Matthews in the first. Then at tight end, I prefer Troy Nicklaus. We may have to move around to secure those guys, but they are just better players. I could live with your two choices, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 ASF is a stiff, imo It's not some much that he's a stiff, but that he doesn't play to his size. He blocks as if he's 215 lbs and doesn't belong there while being Gronks size. He pretty much an over grown receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is a what have you done for me lately type league. Maybe if draftniks were in charge. Lee's an average athlete with average size, I'm sure NFL teams would have pulled that together last year too. That's what the combine showed he is and what I saw when I watched him after last season and I'm incredibly far from an NFL scout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the combine showed he is and what I saw when I watched him after last season and I'm incredibly far from an NFL scout. Trust me, someone who can standing broad jump 10'7", long jump over 25'5" and have a 38" vert is not an average athlete, even by NFL standards. That's insanely explosive. His long jump in 2012, would have been good for 20th at the Olympics, that's not average. His 4.5 forty is disappointing and quite surprising, but couple that with his aforementioned measurables and he's by no means an average athlete. I know we're gonna disagree, but I see a Torry Holt clone in Lee and I think he's gonna tear up the league if he gets on the right team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 This works, though ideally it would be Watkins and Jenkins. I can see it now - Jenkins the second in a long line of Jets 2nd round stars starting with Geno Smith, the greatest QB in franchise history. This could be true as soon as 2016 because.

Jetlife33 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 do not like lee at all Dude has big play ability he's a home run hitter, something the Jets have lacked forever. I would rather Watkins or Evans tbh but if Lee is there at 18 the Jets should be all over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points here, I think his combine is being blown up for no reason. His 40 time was surprising, I thought he would be faster but watching the tape, he plays at a high speed and I think he gets good separation. The problem Im having is Lee or Beckham? Personally I'll take Ebron if available and snag Moncrief (or Matthews but he'll prob be gone) in the 2nd. Granted Moncrief isnt of the same caliber as Lee or Beckham but hes a different type of reciever and his arrow is pointed up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gastineau Lives Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Any combination of WR and TE in the first two or three rounds that the Jets liked would be fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted Moncrief isnt of the same caliber as Lee or Beckham but hes a different type of reciever and his arrow is pointed up Lee or Beckham would both be fine by me, as they've been my two favorites for the past two years. I think I'd stick with Lee because he's been my consensus #1 and the 40 time doesn't change that for me, although I don't think you could go wrong with either. I always had Brandin Cooks at the bottom of my top 6, but this combine showed how much more explosive he is than I originally though, I don't think you could go wrong with either. Haven't seen much of Moncrief, but from what I have seen, he's got all the physical tools, it's about putting it all together. If he and Matthews are both their in the second, I'm still taking Matthews however. It's certainly a good draft to have needs at WR, that's for sure.

I know we're gonna disagree, but I see a Torry Holt clone in Lee and I think he's gonna tear up the league if he gets on the right team. Sorry, I should have been more clear. He doesn't have a size-speed combination that lines up with #1 wideouts in the NFL. A reasonably explosive guy and a good leaper, but if I'm drafting someone who's not particularly tall or strong to be a #1 wideout I'd like him to be fast. Lee to me wasn't on tape, and didn't run that way at the combine. The leaping ability is more appealing to me if we're talking about a guy with the frame (either in height/length or strength) to win more on contested catches. The comp I liked after last season was Jeremy Maclin with less speed and more leaping/contested catch ability. That's not a guy I'd draft in the top 5-10 which is why I wasn't a huge fan. I think that still lines up to an extent, only now we're adding an injury history and hands concerns after this past season. All of this said I don't think Lee is a bad player. I just don't think he's special - and didn't after last year. He's someone I could certainly see being productive in the right situation - but I'm not sure the Jets are the right one. Maybe depending on what happens in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
