faba Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Milliner was rated the first or second best CB coming out- so a lot of so called experts would have been wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdetroit Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 The only problem with this is who do we take if not milliner? Tyler Eifert sucks and has similar injury issues and Warmack isn't much better than a JAG like Aboushi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 lol They NEVER got CBs for Rex! Take the top rated CB in the draft. They drafted an injured guy!!! He is certainly not a bust yet. The new regime is going about it the right way. We hpe the guy turns out, we are not ditching him but we are not counting on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony The Wiz Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Most of the users here loved the pick of Milner since he was an Alabama product and hyped up. Also we have many users who really don't watch College Football like myself and rely on experts. I did not want Milner and that is the truth. I watch many games and he was an average cornerback but why I did not want to draft him was his injury history. He had 5 injuries before he got drafted and knew he was not going to be on the field when he became a Jet. So what does the Jets do last year. They draft an injured cornerback who only played a few games. Now you know why we have a new GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadetree Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Milliner is done. At the very least, he cant be trusted to rwturn and return as an efffective corner. We need to plan like he is not going to be here. So we need, what, 3 CBs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I wonder if Bowles will use Milliner in that hybrid safety-corner role he was using the Honey Badger in. That'd be ideal, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJets Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 It's looking like we got the best player in that draft; Sheldon Richardson. Aside from Mike Glennon of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freemanm Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Agreed. Let's not forget that even when he played, he was benched twice. I don't think he should be cut, because Ithink he could be a used in nickel and dime packages instead of another draft bust, Kyle Wilson (even with Milliner's problems, he's still better than Kyle Wilson). I am rooting for McDougle but him returning and being effective is a long shot. He's coming off of a season ending ACL and has yet to go through a full NFL training camp. That leaves two starting CBs and at least two more to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouisvilleSlugger25 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Dee is 23, the same age as many guys in the draft (like Bryce Petty) and a few CB prospects (CB Prospect: Marcus Peters is 22). If he is fully recovered from his injuries there is no reason to think he can't reach his potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Hindsight being 20/20 .... We could have just kept Revis and used the #9 pick on Richardson. But, it's easier said after the fact. I hated the Milliner pick from the first day. When he wasn't healthy enough for OTA's.... I was worried. However he held up well his rookie year. If we look at him as an extra piece and don't count on him to be a starter, he could end up being a surprise and contribute a lot in 2015. We just can't put all of our eggs in that damaged basket. Or the other one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetdawgg Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Delicate Dee has a long way to go. Can't really count on him this year. Jets need to go after CB's in a big way. Hopefully the injuries are in the past for him when he does return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 The good news is that management is acting like Milliner will not be available....anything he adds is like a bonus. This is great because last year the old regime just assumed Miliner was a shutdown corner to be and addressed the CB position with a pennies instead of dollars. I think we will target one of the best CB's available and then go after another decent one. They will still address a CB in the draft at some point. Miliner and McDoogle will become depth chart players until proven otherwise and if they ever live up to their potential then we have a good situation on our hands. This is wishful thinking.

UnitedWhofans Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Milliner was not a reach at that spot. All the experts agreed with the pick and that was that. Same with Gholston. And Sanchez.

UnitedWhofans Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Stephen Hill? In the 1st round. Top Ten picks. Not a second round pick. At the time, some people loved the Stephen Hill pick. Adam Schein liked it, I remember that. For what it's worth, hindsight is 20/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Stephen Hill? Stephen Hill was a good reach in the 2nd. He had good potential and was a need. Plus he "blocked" well and we needed for our wildcat plays, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 In the 1st round. Top Ten picks. Not a second round pick Sanchez was a reach if not for the nonstop hope/hype given to a lot of lesser QB prospects just because they're QBs. For a long time he was expected to go in the 16-20 range and quite a lot of people still had him down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedWhofans Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 And honestly if the Jets had kept Revis and drafted Richardson at #9, the fans would have rushed the stage.
