sciond Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 we are going to draft all safeties... secret strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy2020 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 hey, sure you draft safeties at 1 and 2. I mean, it is a position that you usually find decent vets at a reasonable price, but you should draft two in the same draft so that you can spend on the more expensive corner in FA which generally doesn't fare as well. It's just smart. You're all underestimating Bowles inventiveness on defense. After they signed Mo to a gigantic contract, they used Richardson in some sort of linebacker role so I'm sure he can figure out how to put these safeties into the game as DTs.

BklynJetsFan85 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I wasnt a big fan of the 2nd round pick... feel there were corners that we could have drafted there or good WRs or even a TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets have plenty of talent on D but not much in the brains dept.

This franchise is allergic to drafting good players in round 2 Don't confuse my comment - the guy is a really good player - i just felt we didn't have to take another safety, given our other needs with corner/TE/OL etc.... he's similar to Jamal Adams as he is very physical, can play both in the box and he can cover... has the speed burst to cover sideline to sideline... great leadership according to his teammates at Florida - he was essentially the leader of the secondary there. To me it seems Mac knows like many Jet fans that we aint fixing everything in 1 year and band aids aint gunna help.... so he's fixing one position at a time as long as the value is there. Like i said, value was there but there was other needs i feel shoulda been addressed - but then again, im not gunna sit here like an armchair QB and say i know everything about everything... Mac used to be a scout - ill trust him til he cant be trusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why you started at 1990 maybe looking to make your number look bigger and our pick because it wasn't the one you wanted look worse? also you should consider adding troy palamalu to the list as well...he was a first rounder who was pretty impact...sure there are more you missed, I try to research for things i have no idea about before letting my emotions get the best of me and posting blindly with false information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcronin Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 The hilarious part of tonight is there are some people here who sh*t on the Bears for doing something (really) stupid, yet were screaming for us to basically do the same f*cking thing all week.

With this mediocre OL in place he will get demolished. we needed a Center desperately. Johnson is a nice backup but not a starter. And there were good developmental tackles in this draft providing upgrades to what we have. Yet we take another safety and 2 WR's = total luxury picks. Mac is a bird brain.

You need to stabilize the OL before you get your franchise QB in here. I agree and disagree. We needed safeties, we all know that. At the time of the draft I thought Mac was stupid for grabbing WRs, but we didn't know about Devin Smith and his acl tear at the time + it's a pass happy league, you can't have enough WRs. By all means I agree, we will get a QB next year and we need Oline help. I'm sure that will be the focal point next year and if not, Mac is a moron.

Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app No Mac is a moron. That's already been determined. We need everything. Except DL. If anything, Mac did a decent job in replenishing the WR corp with magic dust last year. There was really no need to go cuckoo getting another safety and 2 wr's in this draft. On top of that, he watered down the quality of players he could have obtained had he just stayed put. A center, cb and TE were prime directives and he compromised the TE and CB spots and totally ignored the OL. At 2, 3, 3 and 5 he could have filled those holes respectively.

He found one with huge value and upside I agree with the Oline, but I also agree with the way Mac handled it. There was almost zero Oline men worth taking in the first. If I'm correct, the first Oline men wasn't taken until late 20s which might be a record.

jamesr Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I'm pretty sure we can find a center next year in either free agency or the draft, IF it's determined this year that Johnson isn't up to the job. But let's see what we have in him first, he looked good at times last year.Sent from my XT1068 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouPlay2Win Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 most of these guys will be marginal players anyways so makes sense to accumulate more draft picks and going for safer picks such as Adams and MayeSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet ,without a franchise QB you got a body without a head. Three teams traded up to get a QB and we had the opportunity to get the best of them (imho) Watson. I see shades of passing on another QB many years ago, by the name of Marino,hope I am wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk So what your saying is its useless to even draft players period w/o a QB. If that's teh case why don't QB needy teams spend every pick on QB , They can always pick up UDFA's to fill the other holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You go with linemen on both sides, a quarterback, a pass rusher, maybe a skill player or two. A safety is what you add after you have most of that in place. It's a finishing piece, not part of the foundation of the team. When you have many holes on a team and a team which reportedly lacked leadership - you'd be foolish not to draft a kid like Adams who can be that team leader on D , someone who can hopefully change the lazy me-first attitude. Stop getting caught in the position, look at the bigger picture of this pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
