I'm not sure why everyone is hell bent on trading back from 34 just to get back a late 3rd. You're going to pass up on a potential 1st round value just to get back what will most likely be a career backup in the late 3rd? I could see trading back 4-5 spots and getting an additional 4th or 5th but that's it. The Jets need contributors from Day 1, not project picks. 

34 is very valuable so you might get a bit more.  Nobody is saying we HAVE to but remember last year we got Mims and traded back so I trust Joe doing that again

Jets picks value: 1180

Minny picks value: 1135

Based on Draftek chart. Not gospel. About even, especially if AVT is a stud.

Cool.

Nah, not even.  We got taken for a fifth or late fourth.   The charts do not take into account the extra compensatory picks. 

Basically, we gave up the high third (#66) and swapped #86 for #143.  That is 57 slots in this year's draft or nearly two whole rounds.  It is a very late 4th. 

Those who expect us to trade back from #34 are probably right.

As for me, I prefer other guards.  But Vera-Tucker can help anybody and will be a good - expensive - guard for a long-time.  Not the worst thing to be honest.  Ourlads ranked him #23.  Vera-Tucker is a bona-fide chess piece and we continue to build inside-out which is what really matters.  

As for those who dislike the man's tattoos.  It beats being branded like a Cow.

He got very lucky last year in my opinion.

If Greg Newsome makes it to #34 I bet DAL attempts to move up and
take him.  They were desperate to take a CB in the first round and
missed on both Horn & Surtain.  We would move down 10 spots and get
a #2 and #3

The call to Wilson. 
 

I love our coach and GM so much. This feels like true change is in the air. 
 

 

Woody is a schmuck.

Saleh is really deal, from a personality standpoint. Hope he can coach.
