neckdemon Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Is it really a good idea, in this current state of pro football and the length of careers, to use a #1 on a RB? Committee is becoming the approach across the league. just imagine....for a minute we had todd gurley. just imagine. dwell on it even foir a few minutes. close your eyes and basmk in the sun of having todd gurley on thi steam. now open your eyes and come back to reality. we can't get todd gurley, but we can get lamar miller and he's pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joejet Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Don't like him at all as a prospect. Will be happy if we draft a QB but not cook unless he really drops. yeah like the 5th or 6th round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's out this week and had a huge injury in college. These guys probably take the worst beating on the field. Im not trying to minimize th position, oR the talent it takes to play. But I'm of the opinion that the O-line does a lot of the heavy lifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snell41 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 QB. Draft a first round QB, let him compete with Petty with Fitz as the starter until someone takes the job from him. We also need someone dynamic at either RB or WR. Smith can run deep routes, but we need someone with serious speed and burst.

Warfish Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 O-Line, RB both are (or will be) major needs. The unreliable nature of Ivory/Powell hurt us badly, often, this year. CB is IMO a need, Cro is old and high mileage, Revis is VERY average now, Skrine is ok as a #3 at most, the other guys, still, who knows..... QB in the Mid-Rounds (every year, without exception). Adds a arm to push Petty in the #2//Developmental QB Spot. Allows Geno to be let loose. LB, More O-Line, More RB in the late rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powpow Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I think he's the best QB coming out this year with my first impression. I dont think we'll have a shot at the two top OL and no way in hell I would go defense again in the first round. If Carson Wentz is sitting there at 20 I'd draft him. I dont expect him to be sitting there in the 2nd round when we pick. I dont consider it a reach when I think he's the best of the crop. Reminds me of Bledose. Prefer Jared Goff who reminds me of Montana. Who would you rather have, Bledsoe or Montana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have 3 decent RBs than one super stud. Depth more important for the reasons you state. Teams that can plug in the next guy when starter hurt have huge advantage over teams like Vikings that are SOL if Peterson pulls a hammy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powpow Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 i like lamar miller for rb personally That would be a steal if we can sign him - hurts the Fins and helps us - Lamar has raw speed is shifty and has good hands. Ivory, Powell and Lamar - NICE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obrien2Toon Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 This is not a good QB draft. No blue chippers. Hackenberg is absolutely a blue chip. Have to find out if he just sucks or did Franklin kill him. I know for a fact he is going to kill the pre draft process and still might not be there at 20.

Smashmouth Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 What position do you address? I wonder if Ezekiel Elliott would still be around for that pick. Ivory is a FA, both he and Powell are always banged up. would absolutely love Elliot ...when was the last time the Jets had a dynamic RB that could take over a game ? I'm talking a Marshall Faulk type back that would open this offense up. Jets Draft needs to consist of a RB.... Back up WR's that can step in and actually catch the ball at number 3 and 4 options and play ST's to some extent, LB OLB lets look for real football players here not project edge rushers, I've had my fill of that bullsh*t. Obviously we will get some FA players as well so how they fill in the holes we be on a what's available basis either way we need to have more than just 2 constantly injured RB's and that pile of sh*t Stephen Ridley.

I just watched some Goff highlights and am impressed. Any idea where he's supposed to be picked? Could we get him at 20? Or will we miss him by 1 pick or something Jet-like like that.

Browns probably go with Paxton or Goff at #2. Niners take the other. No way Mac trades up that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradis Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 When was the last time that ever worked out? If you're gonna trade the farm, you do it for Luck. Newton... Even Mariota/Winston.... You don't trade your crown Jewels in for Locker, Gabbert - or Manuel... There is no Luck, Newton, Winston this year... Only "ehhhhh maybe". Neither Goff nor Paxton is worth the ransom.

Persiussa Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I would think hunter Henry the Arkansas tight end would be a good pick at 20. I hate drafting tight ends in the first but that guy is special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop24 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 If Elliot or another top back is available go there, maybe an OT, an ILB who is not a complete liability in pass coverage. That's where I go with the 1st pick. Stop with the pass rushing OLB we have 3 first round picks on the DL let them generate the rush. how can we stop ... Is Calvin pace suppose to start for another year ? with Maudlin in coples spot we no one else seems like a legit need to me along with pretty much But I agree could go for a upgrade at MLB too.

Plus, we may not need to trade up for Goff. I still remember when people were saying Geno & Bridgewater would go #1 overall. The draft works in mysterious ways.
