PepPep Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Love this guy. Not sure where he will go, Some have him in Rd. 2 others have him dropping to the 3rd round or lower b/c his ceiling is not as high as some other pass rushers but he's got a fantastic motor, shows good power and speed and a variety of different pass rush moves. If he is there in Rd. 4 or 5 I'd love for the Jets to pick him up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Could fall to 3, but I think hes gone in middle of 2 latest. Premium position, most teams load up on edge. We have not been most teams for the last decade, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lith Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Listened to a mock draft podcast a couple of weeks ago that had us taking him in the 2nd. After taking Chaisson in the first. Got me so pissed off that i had to remind myself that it was not real. Anae had a great senior bowl week; completely dominated the game. Just not sure how much of Anae's dominance was because he was that good or the OL play was that bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCJet Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Would be a great pick in the second round if we dont address edge in free agency. Excellent character guy, good college production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent character guy, good college production. I looked at some more tape of him and he is a bit limited athletically. I doubt he goes in the 2nd round. But with our second third or our 4th I'd pull the trigger. The motor is non-stop and the instincts are great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not sure how much of Anae's dominance was because he was that good or the OL play was that bad. Watching that game ill say this. He had a great get off and first step, but the tackles he was going against couldnt kick back fast enough to handle him, he barely had to use a move to get around the edge. I think he can be a good player and I would be all in for taking a guy with a high motor who has such a good first step, but he's not on my radar for rd 2 guys id prefer right now. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetstream23 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 The guys I'm hoping for at Edge outside Round 1 are Baun (likely gone by end of 1st), Uche (could be there in the 2nd but I'm seeing him go in the late 30's, early 40's in some mocks) or Willekes (interesting prospect, would like him in the 5th but might need to take him in the 4th to make sure we get him. He's a poor man's TJ Watt IMO). If the Jets hit OT, WR, C, and RB in the first 4 picks (3 rounds) I'd be fine grabbing Willekes in Round 4 before targeting another WR in the 5th and then grabbing a CB late. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinstar Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Baun? Have seen him in more than one mock late 1st, early 2nd.Other edge defenders I like include South Carolina’s D J Wonnum, Stanford’s Casey Toohill and Syracuse Alton Robinson . All these guys have displayed the ability to rush from multiple positions but more importantly an ability to drop into zone coverage .

He's also one dimensional in the sense that he has not had a lot of success dropping into coverage. He seems to be solid against the run though. I like him. I'm not as concerned about his lack of elite athleticism. He's all over the field on tape and his effort more than makes up for lack of 'length'. Just depends on what value teams place on him. Like I said, if he's there in the 4th I think its great value. Early in the 3rd, you're passing on a lot of other talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets have to really consider a guy with 13 sacks mostly against top competition We really need OLB it’s almost as dire a need as OL and WR after we passed on Allen and whiffed on Polite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Where the SPARQ guys this year?

I‘d be okay with Curtis Weaver if he’s there in the third. He looks bendy and squatty and like he doesn’t stay blocked. Solid three cone. Consistently good sack numbers. Not a great vert though and didn’t run so I’d guess he lacks a degree of explosiveness. It’s not a bad profile but not awesome. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t fill every need in one draft, but we can fill a couple if we draft right. This year it’s all about the offense. The only defensive position I’d be interested in drafting this year is CB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you say @JiF. You're probably thinking of Jonathan Greenard. He was a monster for the Gators last season. 10 sacks, 50+ tackles, INT,...he was a play maker. When him and Zuniga where healthy at the same time, our D was nasty. The 2 games we lost, Georgia/LSU, we didnt have them at full strength and we were a totally different D. I figured Zuniga would test like a freak and I knew Greenard wouldnt. That said, I think Zuniga projects better as a pass rushers but the health issues are real. Kid cant stay healthy. I'd be worried about taking either but at least Zuniga checks the next level pass rusher boxes.

Robinson had 10 sacks as a junior, but only 4 last year. Athletically, he stacks up much better than Anae. 18 hours ago, JiF said: Where the SPARQ guys this year?

I think he is actually worse than Epenesa, though that is probably mostly based on being so light. Their 3 cones are kind of Vernon Gholston kiss of death. Not many good pass rushers over 7.2 IIRC.

Not sure if you're talking about me but I laughed at the pick immediately and EY said, "that bad" and I said, "yep...he's not going to translate. He doesnt have the athletic profile". I only came to his defense when people were ready to cut him after the 1st preseason game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
