Lawson, Quinnen, Rankins/JFM, Phillips

It’s less and less likely but I want it so bad. Need 5 first round QBs, Christian Barmore and at least 4 CBs to go in round 1 for us to get this guy.

Dude, that would be the New York Sack Exchange 2.0 (cryptocurrency edition)

Phillips at 23 or Ellerson Smith late I can get behind. Would be a sick pass-rushing front. The 49ers for years also prioritized drafting lineman early, so I think it's a possibility if Philips makes it to 23.

I like Kwity Paye too but it’s almost as if the world was in love with him but then realized that he only had 11 sacks in 4 seasons. He’s still a good player but his drop is Phillip’s gain.

The Penn State kid Oweh starting to sound interesting.

The more I think about it the more I see the Jets trying to get a young edge player on a rookie contract to supplement this line.  Lawson is an expensive FA, Rankins is potentially expensive but short-term, QW will need to be paid in 2 years big time!  Adding a premium pass rusher on a 4-year rookie deal would keep the average cost of this group more manageable.

Who are the pass rushers worthy of 23?  Phillips, Paye, Rousseau?  Anyone else?  What about within the top 34....Is it those guys plus Ojulari?

With the FA additions, I don't see the Jets adding to the DL until day 3 now. If they did pick an edge, the guys you mentioned would all be options (Joseph Ossai and Jayson Oweh possibly as well).

Love Phillips. He could be DROY here like Bosa. 

What are peoples thoughts on these concussions though? He has had 3 already. He may need to retire at any point which is such a scary thought. 

 

It's a legitimate concern, which is why he isn't a top 5 pick (if not for the concussions, I think he would be in the discussion in the top 5).

Questions regarding Phillips comes down to the off-the-field stuff: injury history scary (forced to retire at one point), and he has a reputation of being overly fond of the nightlife. Otherwise he's probably one of - if not the - top defender in the draft

I’ve also heard this.   It’s not a coincidence he chose to play in Los Angeles and Miami.   I’d have concerns with him in the NY area.   Also, as you mentioned, his concussion issues are fairly serious.   He’s not a very “clean” prospect, especially when you are looking at selecting him at 23.

You are not going anywhere.  30+ years following this team (if I have judged your age right).  You have too much invested to just walk away. 

None of us really can; we are serving life sentences.

I'd also like to add that I hope he sticks around. I think I speak for a lot of us when I say he adds a lot to the discourse here.

Phillips missed his medical check due to Covid. Thats just interesting because the leaks about how well it went or concerns probably happen close to the draft or perhaps we don't even hear it as well. 

He has had meetings with the Steelers including Mike Tomlin who draft right behind us.

IDK

I'm a Canes fan, and this is an excellent player, But

He has lots of red flags.  First off the concussions.   I'm not sure of course, but there has been lots of rumors about his work ethic, and off-field behavior.

Woud have mixed feelings about selecting Phillips.  His play would certainly help the D, I'm not sure Douglas will be all in with him.    

Think he could be there at 23 because of the flags.

It's between him & Jenkins @ 23... imo... if Jenkins is on the board I would have to lean towards him but if Phillips is taken that would be okay as well.

I feel for your loss...cause it's mine too.

The two players I lusted for in this draft were Kyle Pitts and Jaelan Phillips.  Before the inevitable QB reset position was made.  I was hoping for a Jets trade down just enough to be in position to land Pitts.  Then draft Phillips at #23.  I was like not caring about the QB situation.  Just being selfish and greedy.  I wanted them both!

In many of the mocks that I've posted...Jaelan was picked at #23.   Sometimes at #34.

Don't know if his medical history will still make teams shy away from Phillips, and he drops to #23.  But then it would be up to JD to decide if the medicals make him pass or take Jaelan. 

Of course I'm hoping JD taketh.  Making the pass rush oh so sick 'n scary. 

This is one of my favorites...

Worst mock draft I have ever seen.  Players  that donut fit the scheme and a bunch of UDFAs.
