New York Mick Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 It’s one draft of a new regime and the QB is more important. Get the QB, protect him and put players around him that can actually contribute then get ED, CB, LB etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post derp Posted May 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2021 Lawson was a nice start. Great chance it’s addressed next draft with two first round selections and what looks like a better edge class. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScarletKnight89 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 They paid Carl Lawson.... I mean I would have loved another Edge Rusher in the draft, you can never have enough, but Carl Lawson is a very good pass rusher. We addressed that need this off season with his signing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungaman Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I think we'll get plenty of edge rush out of the kids on the roster. The scheme and most importantly the coaching staff are different, so I expect we should have absolutely ferocious pressure up the middle - where it really counts. Speed and sure tackling off the edges hopefully should be enough. And, as others noted - we signed Lawson for the edge, and that guy from NO (?) to pair with Q to go up the middle. Opposing offenses won't be able to double everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 My understanding was that this class was entirely mediocre outside the first round at EDGE. Draft to the strength of the class. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets Voice of Reason Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I also would've liked an edge, but it wasn't a strong edge class overall. Phillips, Rousseau, Kwity Paye, Tryon, Turner, and Oweh all went 1st round, which was like half of the actually decent edge guys in the class, but even they all have question marks attached to them. I'm disappointed in not getting Elerson Smith by the 4th, but there really weren't many other good prospects past that to take even a flyer on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltflo Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Just keeping in mind that this is stage one of two, 2 ones 2-2’s and 3 3’3s next year. We are going to really stack this team with talent after next years draft.

And with QW and Rankins generating interior pressure, we will probably be in better shape than we have been in recent seasons. We were not rebuilding the team in one offseason. No need to reach for an Edge this year in a weak class. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenFish Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 This was not the draft to get an edge rusher. Most guys were high risk. More importantly, we needed to use premium picks to support our QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy 2 Times Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Give Zuniga a chance. Lawson will bring it, and our DTs are going to rack up sacks this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to reach for an Edge this year in a weak class. Guys like Huff also and the 2 big Safeties drafted that will play at OLB should provide pressure from the outside. Maybe even the UDFA Edge Rusher Rashad may be someone who could develop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I would have loved another Edge Rusher in the draft, you can never have enough, but Carl Lawson is a very good pass rusher. We addressed that need this off season with his signing. Exactly - Lawson was the best edge player in free agency and JD signed him to a reasonable contract. His age/ability is literally perfect for this team and scheme. After that we signed Curry and have a few young guys to work with, which is more then fine for this year. Edge will really be addressed in the next draft where there are 3/4 first round DEs and we have 4 picks in the first 2 rounds. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

undertow Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 The Jets just payed Lawson and Rankins in free agency also brought in Curry....the line was the biggest strength going into the draft we will survive till next year it was the least of our problems.

Defense Wins Championships Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 With a traditional 4-3 D-Line with Lawson from the outside and especially Quinnen Williams on the inside; we'll see a lot of QB pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
