If you think Paxton Lynch is the future, you give it a C. If Paxton Lynch becomes Joe Flacco and Hackenberg becomes Brady Quinn, then its a D. Not an F because Lee looks like he will contribute. But the repercussions of passing on Lynch could bite us in the butt and cement Mac's place alongside Tanny trading for Sanchez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One party was told he would be given a job that the going rate is $15 million a year for. If there's any question as to whether or not that job is his, it hurts his bargaining power and gets him closer to reality. I still think he's back and it may be a moot point in the end, but just wondering if the deal would already be done if not for naming him the starter. 5 minutes ago, NYs Stepchild said: If Hackenberg becomes Tom Brady and Lynch becomes Jeff George then it's an A+. Two can play this game All three of these guys except Hack were first rounders...not logical that Hack needs to be THAT guy. We got a great talent with our first round pick this year and took a chance with a second round potential QB. Geno was a second rounder, if we took him in the first, that would have been an F! Can you imagine if we took Dee first then Geno and passed on Sheldon...(shutter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess they do that for everyone, not just the Jets players so he's probably not the shortest. I'm not too worried about the height of a MLB.

I'm not too worried about the height of a MLB. Some of the best in history were considered too short. That's comforting. I will say he is a speed demon. I remember my chemistry teacher in high school saying he played LB. He said 'While I am short, speed generates more centrifugal force and when I hit those guys they didn't think I was short' . The force responsible for the change in direction is called centripetal force. Centripetal force is necessary for an object to move with circular motion. The force that pulls out from the center on a body in circular motion is called centrifugal force and it increases with acceleration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdetroit Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 2 hours ago, Ohio State NY Jets fan said: Exactly, how many screen plays did the Jets defense get burned on last year? Lee should make an immediate impact, plus he has an eye for the ball, pairing him with Pryor in the middle should be fun to watch for years, and if Taiwan Jones takes the next step they are set up for a while... Our linebackers couldn't cover anyone last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RESNewYork Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Part of the NFL combine is they measure and weigh you in front of a bunch of NFL team reps in their underwear. You always read how combine participants feel super weird with the process. He measured 6 feet and 6/10's inch. So they round that up to 6'1. Weighed 232 lbs. In his press conference he said he's now between 235 and 240 and wants to stay there. Bowles wants him to stay there too. I think everyone should stop worrying about the height and weight and be impressed with speed and movement skills he has. It's also a misconception that he's fast because he is the size of a safety. That is false. He's faster and moves better than almost all the safetys who tested at that draft. He has rare movement and speed skills period.

afosomf Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Just watched Bama vs OSU game and focused on Lee 1st half 2 tackles 2nd half 5 tackles including a nice sack Bama really giftwrapped this game as defense was terrible vs 3rd and long and had so many missed tackles on Cardale. Lee had a decent game, but when Henry ran the ball, he was no where to be found. He had 3 nice plays at LOS, 2 on simms and 1 on cooper. I did not see a vicious sack artiste. I saw a decent OLB but he didnt stand out as a NFL star in making. He will not be a major factor on run defense. I would not have drafted this player.

Rangers9 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I heard the guy talk one time. He's highly intelligent. He might be the kind of player who can follow a scheme. He wasn't mentioned as a pick of ours before the draft because most experts had him going to Atlanta at 17. I think that Mac jumped on this guy when he was still on the board at 20.

Bucannon was drafted as a Safety not as a OLB.They moved him to linebacker as they had 2 safeties they liked johnson and Mathieu. Lee does not appear to me to be a great tackler. If saban had used Henry more, bama wins the game. Do not see greatness for Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
