JetNation Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Looking to add a future starting left tackle, the Jets have chosen USC LT Chuma Edoga with the 93rd pick in the NFL draft after giving up picks 93 and 217 to move up one spot. The #Jets traded the No. 93 selection and the No. 217 selection to the #Vikings for the No. 92 selection, per source. With that pick, the #Jets have selected OT Chuma Edoga out of USC. — Connor Hughes (@Connor_J_Hughes) April 27, 2019 One of the top pass blockers in the country, Edoga is being brought in with the hopes of having him eventually replace Kelvin Beachum.

BROOKLYN JET Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Maybe we traded the pick for future considerations. Like the next time we sign a Viking, they won't snag him back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnknownJetFan Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Possibly Jets felt some team was going to take this OT that is a LT prospect 1 spot ahead of them. The Cowboys took McGovern just a few spots ahead of us so we don't know what these teams catch wind of during the drafting. We are just watching and too many of us making comments without the necessary info in our hands. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR24 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I’m still riding the high of realizing we’re going to have Leonard Williams and Quinnen Williams working the middle with Polite flying off the edge. Would have been nice to grab love at 93 but who knows maybe our new OL coach saw something we didn’t in this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 58 minutes ago, T0mShane said: I want to know why he traded up the one spot. If it's an honest question my guess is twofold: 1. GMs talk about tiering prospects, if you trade back it's not to hope 1 guy is there but rather that 1 guy out of 5 or so are in the same tier and you hope one or two of them are still there in the trade back. This SC kid was probably the last guy in a tier. 2. Need/fear - Mac had to get an OL and 2 were drafted right before our pick. The center Mcgovern, who we had to be targeting, and some other small school guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romanese Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Too many utterly ignorant posts in this string. Look the guy up and read up profile. One of the country's best pass protectors. Besides, no one on this site know if another team was ready to steal him--I trust the draft room has better intel than anyone here. Thus, way too many brash and ill-informed conclusions. Pathetic! Jets are having an amazing draft!!! Picked top-rated player, obtained an elite edge in the third (truthfully, must ensure hamstring and attitude are fine--well worth the gamble in third--first round talent before combine), and then picked up a solid, if not promising tackle that may develop into a left tackle. Freaking amazing day!! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varjet Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 This was a good draft pick, but the random trade up of one spot was strange. It’s like Mac kept wanting to trade up and couldn’t do it, and finally did. We all knew how valuable OL is and that the decent players would go in the third. Polite was also a good pick. We will start the season with Harrison and Toth at center. The Vikings called Mac and said :”We know that you need OL and they are all going. Give us a 7th and we will let you pick the LT from USC.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I liked this pick after not liking the previous two picks. These trade up one spot things are curious though. They reek of a weak gm being taken advantage of. If I recall he did something similar with Bryce Petty no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
