LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Charles Davis has the Jets taking Jeff Okudah 11th overall with the top 4 tackles all coming off the board. The Jets have a huge need for corners, and the run on offensive tackles before they're on the clock makes this choice simpler. Plus, who expected the best corner in the draft to last this long? What's your thoughts on the Jets once again drafting defense? http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001105930/article/charles-davis-2020-nfl-mock-draft-10-jeff-okudah-out-of-top-10 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBeardedSavage Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 *If* free agency is postponed until after the draft, I think we’re locked in for an offensive tackle round one. If that doesn’t happen, and we can sign a tackle or two (RE-sign Beachum and say pickup Vaitai), I’m open to drafting other positions or trading down. But still probably not a corner - our #1 priority should be protecting Sam, and our #2 priority should be acquiring playmakers on offense. I’m willing to let corner be addressed in free agency or not at all tbh, and worry about that next year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's your thoughts on the Jets once again drafting defense? Okudah is not gonna be around when we're on the clock at 11 which is a good thing because my head would explode if we went defense yet again. The strength of this draft is OT's and WR's which we are desperately in need of, so it should be either one of those two positions in round 1, and round 2, and round 3. Maybe sandwich a RB in there and I'm good. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would disagree that the strength of the draft is tackle. It's top heavy at tackle mean while the WR class of next year is a mile better then this year.

Beerfish Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Okudah and Chase Young would be the only D guys I would not become enraged if we drafted in the 1st. I'd grit my teeth with Okudah but I think he is a legit #1 CB and that is a value position and a position of need. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player like Okudah doesn't come around every year and he plays a premium position so I can't possibly see him falling to 11. He's that good. The rest of your post I don't agree with at all. This draft is not only top heavy in OT's but littered throughout with some great players that will be drafted in the first 3-4 rounds. This is also a historically good class of WR's so I'm not sure why you think next years crop will be better. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untouchable Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Only way I could remotely accept this is if Douglas went all out in FA on the OL and did something like trade for Trent Williams and sign Conklin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post David Harris Posted March 12, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2020 Okudah is the best CB prospect in a decade, probably since Patrick Peterson. He’s just about perfect. he’s the only guy I could be talked into if the top 4 OT’s Somehow are off the board. Hopefully he goes higher and we don’t even have to consider passing on a talent like this. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of few other things that would bring my piss to such a boil. I'm not saying sign a jag or two in free agency and rely on three rookies. You make one big splash on the line and then you are more than likely signing another average player. It's not like we can pick and choose who we are going to sign. Draft 3 prospects and one starts right away, possibly another starts by the end of the year and you can start to build depth. I'm also not writing off Edoga despite his poor season. OT is a tough position to play as a rookie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icer Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I'd be ok with Okudah, even though I desperately want them to take a tackle, or WR if they are all gone CB is a big area of need on the team, and he's a great prospect and would be terrific value at #11 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetstream23 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Postponing FA until after the Draft would really through a severe wrench into organizational planning. I'd expect teams to lead more towards need than usual. Imagine the Jets going through the Draft and missing out a high-end OT or even WR.....How much do you think Robby Anderson asks for if the Jets weren't able to hit WR until Round 4?

Jetster Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Jets would by lucky if Okudah fell to #11. LT, Edge, CB, those are the lynchpins after QB. Gilmore turned the Patriots defense around. I read this board everyday & I don't see fans unrealistically thing Douglas can turn this thing around with 1 draft. Wirfs is the LT I want but if he wasn't there & Okudah fell, you finagle a way to move up for Josh Jones using one of your #3s. You guys would be doing flips if we came out of this draft with Okudah, Jones & Pittman or Claypool with our other 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct - Okudah is that good and has a unique blend of strength and arm length to be a true shutdown, man cover CB. There are other more enticing picks from a need standpoint but he would be too valuable to pass up at 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
