nycdan Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 7 minutes ago, UnitedWhofans said: I mean in terms of the timing. This is 4 months before the draft. When can we get this deal done? before or after FA Good question. I think it is more likely to wait until after the first wave of FA. If we sign Cousins, our need to move up changes so it would be hard to determine what the pick is worth right now. In fact, I think a lot of those deals where you aren't sure who is going to be available get set up before the draft but only get triggered on the clock if the guy the team trading up wants is there. That makes the most sense when looking at picks 3 and 4. The Jets might be willing to offer more to get to 3 if Darnold or Rosen drops. If not, they would either offer less or simply not trade up. IND would presumably have one or more of these trade-down deals in place but have to wait and see how the first two picks play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 2 Times Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I have no problem (well, maybe a little), going defense so long as it’s an edge rusher! Corners mean nothing when the QB has all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 32 minutes ago, K_O_Brien said: In the above unlikely scenario, once Cleveland pick Allen, their phones are ringing off the hook for their second pick at 4. Likewise Indy at 3. The chances of Darnold slipping to 5 are remote. Yeah, Indy is not picking at 3 if Allen/Rosen go top 2. They're trading out to the highest bidder. The Jets should be able to have the best package to move to 3. But it would be hilarious if the Jets drafted another DB in the 1st. What a clown show.

SenorGato Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Booooooooo unless they got the FAs I wanted. Even then take a pass rusher...MY guess is that if Davenport worked out well enough to go top 15 he probably pulled some freak sh*t so it’s cool to draft him. Or take the freak OT prospect if there is one. A CB’s going to go through heck here if drafted early. Vita Vea’s going to go well before the 20s.

Sonny Werblin Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 It is flawed because it has the Skins taking a QB assuming Cousins is gone, but doe not account for where Cousins ends up. If it's Denver, they are most certainly not taking a QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckkieB Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 If the Jets don't sign a FA QB, a QB has to unequivocally be their 1st round pick and it looks like they're going to have to trade up to be in front of Denver if they want to get the #3 QB on the board. Drafting a CB before a QB with no legit FA QB in the fold would be a disaster of epic proportions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 We have drafted a DB in the first round in 3 of the last 6 years. 4 of the last 9. We have also signed multiple high-priced FAs in that time. And after all that, we have exactly 2 decent Safeties and 1 decent CB who is a FA to show for it. On top of that we still can't rush the passer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I'd prefer Nelson there, I know that's not the sexy pick but I'd love adding Jensen and Nelson to this OL. If it is not Nelson and we only added 1 CB in FA then I could see us taking Fitzpatrick, he really is a special player. I don't believe there is a LT that I'd want to pull the trigger on, at least at this point. I'm okay with letting Beachum have 1 more year with help across the line before I invest heavily at that position. If our FA went: Cousins Jensen Lawrence/Ansah/Adrian Clayborn EJ Gaines/Fuller/Butler (let Claiborne walk) Resign some of our own guys Then I wouldn't have any problem with Fitzpatrick.

Its good that Kiper had this as his mock, because hes almost certain to be wrong. I agree with these being the top 5 prospects but i bet someone sneaks in there. 2. During the season there was never a consensus dominant LT. I know people want to close their eyes and make there be a franchise LT our pick. McGlinchey is seen as ok, perhaps a product of Nelson...and Williams is seem as ok. Nothing to get too excited about. Same for Orlando Brown. I dont really want to be the team that overdrafts them. 3.Nelson the guard and Fitzpatrick the safety are both devastating choices, as far as value is concerned at pick 6. 4. If indeed that is the top 5, then at 6 it better be a.Mayfield (unless FA) b. The class’s best Edge c. Trade down d. Ridley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I mean I would understand the reasoning pending certain things happen before this selection. At this far out from the draft I'm not going to get myself worked up about a mock draft. There are situations I don't want this pick too so at this point I'll fall in the middle until it gets closer to see how FA pans out. So yea at this point I'm kinda okay with seeing what happens first especially because this probably isn't even correct because a team could be trading up for a QB too.
