Excellent value and I see a LT at the next level. Not a left tackle. More of a Right Tackle which he has played two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVAJet815 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Par for the course Anyone who is hating on that pick is hating it for the sake of hating it. I think half (or more?) of this board hates everything the jets do anyway, regardless of merit. Edoga is fine. He was one of the half dozen OL prospects I was hoping for. The Sam tie in is a nice bonus. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFerg726 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 He looked awfully good at the Senior Bowl. I didn't watch a lot of USC this year, but he plays a premium position that is in flux after this year. He has a chance to be an important player for us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcoops Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Very intriguing pick. More experience at RT, but seems to have an LT's skillset (accomplished pass-blocker, good foot quickness, long arms). Jawaan Taylor played RT in college too, but people were projecting him as a possible LT in the pros. Edoga probably starts out as the swing-tackle, but he could be an option at LT in the future with some development. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetmech Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I think he replaces Shell for a year since this is Shells last year under contract. Next year he moves to LT. Guy was an absolute beast in the SB this year and he played strictly LT.I’m not so sure having Shell walk is a good idea. Obviously his injury is a concern but he’s been solid for a 5th rounder.

Welp Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Edoga has the ability and measurables to play left tackle and he has played that position in college. Tyron Smith is an example of only playing right tackle at USC and a left tackle in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I’m excited to have Edoga on the team. I really liked him at the Senior Bowl because he outright stood out in drills. A lot of power and finesse to play with there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derp Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 This is the first time in a long time that the Jets have had legitimate tackle depth. True for Edoga but really four of the six draftees have a legitimate opportunity if healthy to compete for starting positions against incumbents who didn’t necessarily “need” to be replaced in the draft. Speaks to how thin the roster is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really?! Wow, I’m surprised that he stated that publicly. They’re obviously high on him to say they see him at LT. I assumed right.

redlichtie Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Really liking the Edoga pick. Like that we took a couple of ‘risky’ prospects with elite upside. Also really like the two OT that we picked up as UDFA. Tyler Jones could stick and Wyatt Miller has a chance too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chuma isn’t fit for LT, then they could have said well it was our plan all along for him to be RT. But, to come out and say it already, definitely shows confidence. Or Mac playing the media game and putting the pressure on the coaching staff. “Hey we drafted him to be our left tackle. He had the highest pass protection rate out of everyone in college. If he can’t make it, don’t look at me.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
