I was taking Linderbaum for Jets at 35 if he slid.  Calls of homerism or not.  Center is a borderline need but I was gonna do it.

Cinci makes so much sense as a spot for him.

I mean, the whole first round reflects Jets fans picking guys they like for he Jets, for other teams. At 35 it’d be an excellent pick for us.

I contemplated DM'ing you to see if you wanted to trade up to 29 to draft him lol

Funny.  I ran trade charts for picks 28-30 figuring Cinci might be the spot.  Couldn’t bring myself to give up a 4th to move up for a quasi need with so many real needs left.

Chiefs needed a WR and S, so I picked a WR and S. 

Jets only need a WR and S because they need every single position to begin with. 

So of course it's going to feel like that.

Agreed I thought the original comment was nonsensical.

What..... @Dcat @Lith @JTJet... a trade up for Burks... Olave at 18?! 

If there's 4 WRs taken between 10-20, i'll go streaking... 100% 

No different than any other draft. 

Chiefs have 10 billion picks, they will probably move all over the draft for whoever they want.

Well there are few issues, #1 is need. Teams NEED WRs.

The second issue is this draft stinks at the top, so for every 'Wr A,B, C is lousy you can ask, who do you take?  The lousy Oline , dline, lb, CB, safety?

I know WR and TE are specialty of yours but look at the alternatives.  Just because wrs are not up to standard does not make the rest of the talent staring you in the face any better.

I'm confused here. What exactly is your gripe? 

Are you mad that there are 32 teams in the NFL and it stands to reason that many would want the same players?

Or

Are you salty that the mock draft isnt playing out how you wanted?

I'm not being a dick here, but I kind of am, because it's coming off like the second option.

I get it, i do. Looking at alternatives makes the "i smell dog sh*" face... It's a wow moment for me.

lol wut. It's an observation and making conversation. I thought that what this thread was for - not just for blowing each other over selections. I think GMs will have a higher grade on some oline/dline and DBs than some of this WRs like Olave and Watson. 

It's why we do this, to critique and discuss.

My bad that wasnt meant for you. 

But you are right regardless. I just dont get the perception that everyone's just picking players they want for the Jets.

YOU GO TELL AARON RODGERS WE PICKED ILB AND BOX SAFETIES CAUSE THE WR'S WERE POOR!   ?   Then you can tell him how good 80 year old randall cobb and #1 Wr allen lazard really  are,.  ?

I mean I got Trent McDuffie at 32 overall. I’m pretty happy at the inflation of hyper analyzed Jets fan favorites.

For god sakes, PHI has taken Devonta, and Reagor in back to back years, in the first, and JJ Arcega-Nope the year before in the 2nd. 

 

and they will take another.  In the teens. Book it.

yea i hope we're not taking this/ourselves too seriously, @JTJet -- i was being genuine in my dismay over the run on WRs, but it's not a finger pointed at any one with intent. Someone has to give you sailors a hard time

I don’t know why you think I’m singling you out.

You guys are picking guys that have been salivated over for months. Arguably early. You guys do what you want, it was really just telling the other guy not to apologize for a reach. 

That’s not nonsensical, it’s just what is playing out. It wasn’t even criticism, tbh.

Love that it got taken that way though.

Go for it, list all the awful reaches.  And make sure at the same time you assess who should have been taken and address the team needs.

I'll stand by my comment, your comment was nonsense. 

Two QBs taken in the top few picks, 3 in the top 20. Yup, those are jets picks.  Two guards taken. 

I'll say the same to you that I did to Paradis.  The whole draft is trash at the top so if you do not take one of the 'obvious awful reach' picks who are you taking? 

The jets have needs ......everywhere, so guess what?  Players are going to be taken that have been talked about the jets.
