Everybody is talking about the defense but the week 18 bills game was the worst offensive output in franchise history. They need to improve the offense. Jd needs to help Zach.

I don't have 100 percent certainty but Google "drake london Jets" and connect the dots. Everyone has this projection. Everyone. It makes sense from the system perspective, from the ZW needs a security blanket perspective etc. It even makes sense from a roster build perspective because they did not ever sign that Allen Robinson type everyone wanted. They don't have the luxury of taking a jauan Jennings in Rd 7 and developing him. They have to draft more offense right now and drake london is a bad ball specialist like plexico or Keyshawn. Yeah, I think 5'10" Moore 5'8" Berrios 6'3" Davis (who plays small) Yes, we added two nice TE's - but a big target WR would be ideal. I know very little about him, but if he can't get any separation like many say here - it's clearly not a good pick, but I also then don't think he would be projected as a 1st round talent if that were the case.

Phillyjet Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 45 minutes ago, Beerfish said: If those picks were swapped it might make more sense to me. We make assumptions about the WR rankings but I wonder how teams really feel about the prospects. I remember it shocked me when the Falcons came all the way up for Julio Jones. Lot of smokescreens, and the lack of discussion on London makes me wonder if teams are higher on him than the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoTownsell1 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 25 minutes ago, maury77 said: Both really. I think London lacks explosion out of his cuts and will have difficulty getting separation in the NFL and I'm skeptical of his YAC ability translating. Not many 6'5 215-220ish WRs are going to meet those criteria. It's not how he wins at football. Elijah Moore needs that explosion and/or quickness to beat defenders, same with Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave. Mike Evans and prospects like London do not. London is never going to impress you with his seperation skills (just like Evans/Claypool). From Mike Evans scouting report: Will have to make a living in traffic at the next level -- will struggle to separate Monotone mover with pedestrian speed -- cannot separate vertically or pull away from the pack Again, I am not pushing for him at 4. But if the Jets view him as the best WR and they have reason to think another team will take him between 5-9, it's not criminal to take him at 4. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 22, 2022 Author Share Posted March 22, 2022 There's a false notion that Sauce should be the one drafted 1st due to your PFF, ProFootballNetwork, Draft Machine (thedraftnetwork.com) draft simulators. Below are 3 highly prestigious analysis. All 3 have Gardner going 10th overall to the Jets! Not one of these guys had him earlier or later. This is where they had London. Daniel Jeremiah's (7th) Todd McShay (8th) Mel Kiper (4th) Jets! Anything can happen and they could be wrong, however it isn't crazy to believe that that London could go prior to Sauce in the event they were both selected to the Jets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In length, height, and contested catch ability. Toon had deeper speed that London lacks. Plaxico Burress is a good comp. London Maybe a little faster than plax and a little shorter but both players make a living bodying out cornerbacks and catching garbage balls. Rebounders who can win the jump ball or end zone fades. He can also block better than Burks and Wilson, which matters to the jets I get that 4 is high but in this draft with no quarterbacks in the top 15 it is what it is. And the wide out market also plays a role. The jets cannot buy a wr 1 they have to draft him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE BARON Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 1 hour ago, LAD_Brooklyn said: This offseason has been an unforgettable one in the NFL. Multiple star players have found themselves on the mood, and many teams have made franchise-altering transactions during the early portions of free agency. Following the initial wave of free agency, ESPN NFL Draft expert Mel Kiper has released his NFL mock draft 3.0, featuring some significant changes throughout his projected first round. While quarterbacks get a lot of the attention, the rest of this draft class has been seriously shaken up in Kiper’s latest NFL mock. There is a new top overall selection, which caused ripple effects throughout the entirety of the first round. It’s important to note that free agency is far from over, and there are still plenty of changes to be made across the league. But here is Kiper’s latest NFL mock draft. Kiper’s NFL mock draft 3.0 Jacksonville Jaguars: Michigan DE Aidan Hutchinson 2. Detroit Lions: Notre Dame S Kyle Hamilton 3. Houston Texans: NC State OT Ikem Ekwonu At least Kiper realizes Ickey is going in the top three. I would not be surprised to see him go first overall to Jacksonville. Best player in the draft, and Jacksonville needs to build a line for Lawrence. It's a shame. I REALLY wanted Ickey to go to the Jets. Given that Ickey will be gone, the second best player on my big board is Sauce. If JD has brains, it may very well be that Sauce goes to the Jets at number 4 once Ickey is gone at 1, or 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extmenace Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I have little doubt edge will be the pick at 4 or 10. Salehs defense needs two viable edge rushers to work. At this point, lawson is all we have and who knows how he looks post injury. If we don't take edge at either of those picks id be completely shocked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
