isired Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 i tend to agree but a top flight running back will make it possible to play ball control and help keep the defense off the field. on the other hand a good defense will help the offense play on short fields. there's a balance in here somewhere. but the biggest issue is that for this team to succeed the way it's structured means the coaches will have their work cut out. they will need to get this team to play good smart football for the full 60 minutes and not let up. That's where I think we'll see addition by subtraction. Guys that are not well-established are going to play hard regardless. I don't believe in 5 year rebuilds in today's NFL, but we needed this turnover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams will have to game plan for him. With the speedy WR Corps they just will not be able to stack the box. Excellent point. You want Fournette UP the gut or Robbie Anderson OVER the Top of opposing defenses? Defense can only commit so many players in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I would like to see the Jets add a CB, a FS and an edge rusher before we even get to the 3rd round . To accomplish this, I have decided to see if the Saints are interested in a trade for the 6th over all pick where I get their 11 and 32nd pick . Saints can take who ever interest them, the QB, The RB or who ever and we can get the players we need or trade down further from 11 and see what we can add .

As far as I'm concerned, that's the deciding factor for Bowles' job security - not W-L, but having the team improve as the year goes on, and play hard from the first week to the last.

JetFanatic Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 1 hour ago, Tinstar said: Agreed, but not with this roster. The Jets have to start somewhere, and IMO, we have a nice roster to start . We have a star at DE. We have a young player with potential at Linebacker and we could use a play maker in the secondary . I wonder, with this current roster and the depth in this draft, what side of the ball could the Jets improve more quickly . The jets need to build a team, and that means sticking to a coach, a GM and a plan . I think the defense is closer to being really good so they can go defense early to solidify it. Example being they can go with Lattimore at 6 and then Budda Baker with the pick at the top of the 2nd round and the secondary is instantly much better barring Lattimore stays healthy of course. And while I'm not thrilled with picking Lattimore at 6 adding those two could improve the defense vastly. If they choose to give the offense an identity they can go O.J Howard at 6 and then go with J. Mixon or whoever happens to slip of McCaffrey or Cook (slim chance). On offense they would then have somewhat of an identity and someone for the defense to gameplan against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think BAP may deliver us one 8f not 2 defenders in the first 2 rounds, but I'd be happy with any of the players you mentioned (otherbthan Mixon, I don't think he should come to NY, and I'm pretty sure he'll have .ore troubles).

JetFanatic Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 The way the top 5 picks go down will decide everything. If 1 or 2 QBs get selected in the top 5 I think that's a very good thing for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schoolboy Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 We have garbage at safety! Didn't think it was that bad. Safety and lb are o the 2 positions that can be turned around the quickest given the strengths of this draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DO you take the guy who can "score points" or see what teams offer for the chance to select that guy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chance to acquire more picks has to be the main priority here. If not it would depend on what their vision is in regards to repairing the offense and defense. Or they can just go BPA. Lots of options which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
