PCP63 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 1 hour ago, jetstream23 said: Understood but there’s a reason the Jets have added Mosely for HUGE dollars when they already have two starting ILBs (regardless of what we think about Lee) and why they pursued Barr AND why they resigned Henry (don’t call me Harry!) Anderson. The Jets predominant scheme looks to be 3-4. Agree 100% that defenses are now “multiple” and line up in everything from 4-3 to even 2-5, but I think the Jets want Leo and Anderson at DE. If they draft Bosa it’s because they’re confident they can stand him up for a significant percentage of the time. JMHO. Fair point. One thing of note, though, is that a defense that is gaining more and more popularity is the "Tite" front. Think a stack 3-3-5 with the OLBs apexed (so pretty much a 3-2 defense). It's a 3-shade-3 front, so both "edges" are interior rushers, with the PSILB sealing the edge on the playside, and the BSOLB getting cutback. This allows you to give the appearance of a lightened box, while still being able to have a 9-man front and good pass defense. On passing downs, most Tite front teams will have their 3 techniques read the pass, and force their way into the C gap rush lane. Now, another thing they often do is move one of the 3's into a 5, creating almost an Okie front, except the outside linebacker is simply further removed from the box. What this allows you to do is have someone like Leo get in his natural 3 technique position, but not have to worry about sealing the edge, while allowing Bosa to be in his natural 5 technique position. I'm not high on the CJ signing, but in a Tite front, the run fits and pass responsibilities work out so that he could be purely a box player, and a damn good one. And you wouldn't have to change much. The Tite front is the ancestor of the 3-4. Easy to install, easy to adjust, and very versatile. Only thing I'd do if we got Bosa was I'd sign another safety/backer hybrid for the front side OLB (don't have a lot of faith in Jenkins in coverage). Leo-McClendon(Anderson?)-Bosa Lee-Mosely-Williamson-OLB/Safety Hybrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenReaper Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 2 hours ago, JoJoTownsell1 said: I am all in on Justin Houston. Edge rushers like him age well. Cam Wake was getting double digit sacks at 35. JJ Watt/Von Miller at 29 were great last year. Houston is just 30. Getting him would give the Jets the flexibility to trade out of the #3 pick. That's what I think Jets want to do. I'd love Bosa or Q. They'd be perennial Pro Bowl difference makers. But if a team badly wants to move up for Bosa or a QB, and make a juicy enough offer...Jets are gonna take it. Bring in more talent and depth for a playoff push this season.

nycdan Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 My 1a/1b choices are: 1a) Bosa or Allen. Hope we got a dominant pass rusher for the next 10 years. Figure out the OL for this year and fix it as priority #1 (tied with WR) next year. 1b) Trade down and get Jawaan Taylor and the best C available with our next pick. Quick fix for the OLine and deal with Edge/WR in FA or as next year's priorities. We should be able to make some noise this year, but I think it's a 2-year plan and I want to fix as much of it as we can now so it's easier next year to finish the job.

This guy isn't good, he is a beast. A game changer. You can be a game changer from the inside, just ask the Rams. Personally, I rank Allen/Bosa/Williams about the same. All 3 should be great. After that the draft takes a BIG drop off. Not that those other guys can't be great or even better than Allen/Bosa/Williams, it's just those 3 have very little chance of being busts and have very high chances of being pro bowlers. They need to trade back and get a bunch of guys who can contribute and start in a year or two. The guys we're signing now will not be on the team once we have to pay Darnold. They need to add quality players in the draft at many positions. That's how you keep restocking your team without free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think with the current roster the way it is that the Jets have the luxury of believing that 1 possible great player will put them over the top. My ultimate goal would be to trade down a couple of times into the high teens/low 20's and draft the best Center or Guard available. With those moves maybe they pick up 2 additional 2nd round picks in 2019. They can really address the offensive line and set themselves up for the next 5-10 years. It's basically what the Colts did last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless some QB desperate team wants to blow the Jets away for our pick, Its a no brainer to stay right where they are. With the niners getting Ford, theres a very good chance they go with Williams. That leaves Bosa and Allen to pick from. I would personally go with Bosa, but I would be ecstatic with either one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrett Bradbury, Elgton Jenkins, Erik McCoy, Michael Jordan. Chris Lindstrom is a guard that could also be an early starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
