Wonderboy Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 42 minutes ago, #27TheDominator said: I know who he is. The point is, can he play outside? What are the odds that this kid can get off the line of scrimmage against NFL defenders? I like the prospect, but if he is going in round 2, I am off him because I don't think he fits what we have. I think he and Shenault are both kind of luxury guys that need you to manufacture touches. Everybody likes to wave Tyreek Hill around for every little fast guy, but this guy seems way more fragile and most of these guys are more Taylor Gabriel than Tyreek Hill. Not that Gabriel is a bad player, but that isn't what you are looking for in the 2nd. I don't see picking him in the 2nd, especially when he didn't run. posted his video. Didnt you see him run. He's plenty fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetFan20 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I think some folks need to realize that the NFL draft is a long term proposition. The only projected Jets starters under contract for 2021 at WR, CB, and EDGE is Bless Austin and Jamison Crowder (the Jets can save 11MM by cutting him in 2021). On the offensive line the only players with guaranteed $ after 2020 is Chuma Edoga and Connor McGovern. Let me be clear.... OL WR CB EDGE RB I don’t care which of the five positions they go with so long they end up being good players. Would I prioritize offense to help to help Sam? Yes, but if Jeff Okuduh or Chase Young miraculously drops to 11 I would absolutely take them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of drops from Hamler. I’d like either better in conjunction with another WR. I do like Shenault a lot but that’s a big dice roll as the only WR. This is a draft that fills needs but I don’t think fans will like. I appreciate that. I do think Wills’ penalties are enough of a question that I’m not sure I get that fit. But the rest makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't dislike him but I feel Thomas is the safer prospect who already has proven he can play left tackle. If we wound up with Willis because Thomas was gone I'd be fine with it but we still would have to teach him to be a LT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only one Tyreek, trying to find other exceptions like him I think is a very dangerous game. He's also coached by arguably the best offensive mind in football right now and plays alongside a generational QB. One of his knocks is separation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet Nut Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 2 hours ago, IndianaJet said: I kinda hate this draft. We don't have the roster depth to draft a project QB who at best will be a back up and another TE. We are so deficient at OL and CB that I'd rather take a flyer on guys at those postions, even late in the draft. As a poster said before me - I'd lose my sh*t if we picked Shenault while Tee Higgins was still on the board. I've wished the Jets would take a stab at James Morgan all of last year. Hes 6' 4" with a canon for an arm. Im making predictions by we have to take a shot somewhere. Reading the Pats and Cowboys have shown interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR24 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 ill be so happy on draft night if CAR NYG and ARI don't take OTs. I’d then follow that up by launching my phone through the TV if we took Laviska with Tee Higgins on the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How are we going to take a stab at a backup QB with as many needs as we have? I mean, the Pats like him so it's worth pissing them off... but 8 picks isn't much to take a chance on. Unless he falls past the middle rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PepPep Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Solid mock. I don't like the Shenault pick. Would rather have Pittman or Claypool or Peoples-Jones or a number of other receivers over Shenault. Looks like in this mock Higgins was still available, he would be the pick if I was the GM. Doubt he falls out of the first round tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenseed4 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 If the draft fell this way, you know, with no trades at all. I would have assembled the following, superior draft: 11(1). Andrew Thomas, LT 48(2). Tee Higgins, WR1 68(3). Matt Hennessey, C 79(3). Julian Okwara, Edge 120(4). Tyler Johnson, WR2/3 158(5). Anthony McFarland, RB 191(6) JuWann Johnson, WR6 for ST 211(6). Lamar Jackson, CB/LB for ST 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Ideally zero picks should be used on DL, TE, S, RB, ILB, FB, K Go heavy on OL, WR CB and Edge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop24 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I could easily see Gase falling in love with Shenault his run after the catch ability is special.. he would thrive in that mid to short passing and heavy screen game his offense is built around . Don’t think he even makes it’s too 48. I think we have better chance at aiyuk or Pittman. I don’t like his mock because I prefer to double dip at OL and WR withIn our 1st 5 picks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickTamland Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 It would be a typical jets draft. 1. wills has never played LT and here we are with a need at LT (could work out but why not just take Thomas) 2. Shenault is injured and a borderline gadget player. I know the skills are there but he is not polished. We need a starter day one. 3rd round: 2 defensive prospects who are over potential starters at WR/RB as soon as this year. NO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcoops Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Not a bad effort overall. Not a fan of picking a TE, even that late. I would have gone with another WR such as Hodgins or the RB McFarland there. The Morgan pick is interesting. With Fales as our top backup, I am expecting the Jets to add a QB in the 5th or 6th this year. Morgan has been linked to the Jets, and is an intriguing prospect. My out-there projection is Cole McDonald from Hawaii, who has arm talent and mobility but needs a lot of development. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you gonna pass to reach for a need? Depends on how much of a fall we’re talking about. RB with a round 2 grade falls to the fifth? Sure, go for it. Round 2 guy falls to round 3? Nah. Too many years of drafting low impact positions. Stock up and keep the best guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
