Barry McCockinner Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I know a DT in the first round isn't going to excite anyone on here but I have to say it wouldn't hurt my feelings if we took Jordan Davis in the event we can trade into the mid-late first round. Dude is a massive run stopping force on the interior. They have him listed at 340 but I think he's bigger than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I think Devontae Wyatt is a better choice for what this team needs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you can find run stopping DT’s later, the trait that gets guys picked early is pass rush ability. Also his snap count is pretty low and he actually stepped up this year as a senior when given less snaps. I know the Jets rotate heavily but think a guy who’s going to need to miss a lot of snaps to stay fresh and those snaps are on rushing downs not passing downs would be - for lack of a better term - a luxury pick. Make sure you’ve got guys who can impact the quarterback first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdels62 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Sterling Weatherford LB/ S (Miami of Ohio) he is a dude to watch at the Senior Bowl. He played that slot/ rover/ safety role in college and he was good at all of it. I could only find highlights or Twitter video of him but I saw some glimpses. Not overly strong but a form tackler, impressive range and size at 6-3, 220. Looks like a dude that can click and close in tight angles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maury77 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 So I watched this game film on Hamilton. This kid is an ELITE athlete, the way he glides around the field he looks like he could play in the NBA. He's got good instincts as well. That being said, at least on this tape, I just don't see a lot of examples of him impacting the game. Granted, that is always going to be tough to see when a guy is playing deep and the opponent won't test him, but I wanted to see more of an impact for a guy in consideration at number 4. Are there other games I should watch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 For those interested in James Cook as an RB, and I think he woudl be a great fit in our offense, he made it official today. He is declaring for the draft. Will also be playing in the Sr Bowl, so our staff will have a chance to see him up close. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think cool goes before that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, Michael Carter was the 5th RB taken, at the top of R4. At this point, have to assume Walker, Spiller and Hall will be top 3. Cook is in the next group of guys. I don't think it is a certainty he goes day 2. You just never know when that run on RBs will begin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His production isn’t even all that good either. I think it depends on what comes out of Oregon about his work ethic. I'm not sure valuing education and thinking about what you're going to do after your career ends or if you get injured is problematic if you get after it on the field - and to be honest I have no idea where Thibodeaux falls there. Saleh loves Berrios who was the business school valedictorian at Miami. Given he feels he's got those other options anyway and is choosing to play football it comes down to why football instead of working at Nike and can the Jets work with that I guess. The Jets are going to be between a rock and a hard place at 4 whether or not Thibodeaux is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly he just made an ass out of himself in that interview and he sounded like someone who thinks he’s already arrived. These guys rarely work out. Add on suspect production, just a high risk player the Jets can’t afford to miss on. To be a brand the production has to come first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the vibe he just thinks his way of doing things is obvious and he thinks he's smarter than a lot of people - the latter of which made him come across like an ass. To be fair to him, while not for everyone, his approach was pretty well thought out. I didn't think of him as viewing himself as having already arrived. The production thing - that gets back the end of my post. The Jets aren't exactly looking at a ton of mega producers who they can take at pick 4.

I like the other Georgia rb Zamir white also, he doesn’t seem as good at receiving, but might be a better pure runner. Jerome Ford from Cincinnati is interesting too. Great size at 5’11 220 and should compliment Carter well. I’d much rather go with a WR in the second. Guys like Burks, Dotson, London would be great fits if they fall to the early 2nd pick. Alec Pierce could be a steal in the 3rd or 4th also. He can be a solid #2 I was just looking at RB's and started watching Jerome Ford - I looooove this guy. The way he reads blocks and makes himself small is exceptional, he has homerun speed, a quick hop step cut, and he has a way of just kind of pinballing off potential tacklers. If we have a chance at him in the 3rd or 4th I hope we snatch him up. I worry his 40 time could really blow him up (make him a higher pick) though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some guys say all the right things in interviews, but suck on the field. If Thibs could help us win, then I don't care if he is a self-absorbed douche. That said, I have never been all that impressed by Thibs when watching Oregon games. I haven't studies his tape, but when I watched Oregon play, I had to look for him - he never jumps off the page as the "guy." Guys like Kyle Hamilton, Devin Lloyd, Hutchinson/Ojabo, Jordan Davis/Nakobe Dean you can't miss their talent when you watch their teams play. Maybe I just watched the wrong Oregon games this season, but I don't see that with Thobodeaux. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this team had a bunch of vets on it I wouldn’t care as much because they would just ignore him or put him in place. Him being an egomaniac just doesn’t jive with a team filled with guys trying to learn and grow together. I agree that if his talent is that good then it doesn’t really matter in the end 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
