Paradis Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Talking tea leaves here with my boi @OtherwiseHappyinLife -- While a trade back could mix things up, the jets had private meetings/workouts with virtually all the WRs; Williams, Burks, Olave, Wilson etc.... Which tells you-- You don't meet with this many guys unless you know you need one and you don't know who's gonna be there If you were dead set on taking one at 10, you wouldn't be turning rocks over. You love 1, maybe 2. Meet them and settle on order. They are also planning for the possibility of trading out of #10/#4 and want to be sure they've done their homework. Notable is the lack of Drake London -- possibly a reflection their assessment of him. Eitherway, i don't want this to get too dense. The Jets didn't labor over working out ALL of the QBs last year. Nor ALL of the CBs this year etc etc. I think plan A is likely to expect Sauce Gardner at #4, and then edge at #10 - Thibodeaux being the wildcard. Maybe for the London lovers, if Thibs is the guy at #4, maybe London is a gimme a #10 - no need to work him out. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bla bla bla Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I've been saying this for weeks. The Jets are willing to move the 2nds and a third for the right WR. That tells me they are willing to give up some package of picks to get a rookie WR. I fully expect us to have at least 3 firsts this year with an outside shot at 4 firsts. 4 - Sauce 10 - Johnson II 35 - Pickens 38 - Brisker 69 - Muma 111 - Cook 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Douglas’ history shows that. He seems to value WR’s in that range rather than too high. I’m relieved that we shouldn’t be taking London at #4 but it #10 does feel like a decent spot for the top guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
long time suffering Jets f Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 If the Jets trade up back into the 1st round, take Sauce at 4, Johnson at 10, followed by Williams. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're looking at it. What kind of slap dick scouting department are you/GM running that you NEED to bring in 5 WRs for a private work out for pick #10? You're going to have your pick of the litter at #10. You don't need to work out Olave. Or Burks. Or even Jameson ACL... Its not how it works. You whittle it down and bring the 1-2 you love This was done so when pick 25 (or whatever) rolls around, and 2 of them are still on the board, they know what they're working with... the fact that they had to meet 5 WRs tells you how murky the pecking order is. No one knows what to make of the group, including GMs. Otherwise, you'd know who will be gone... but i don't think anyone knows for sure. 33 minutes ago, DoomProphet said: I want a WR at 10, don't wait. it's clear you don't want it to be true, but it probably is.

This exactly. The WRs being considered in the first round are not all that(with Williams being the exception) There are two WRs Doctson and Watson I believe will be available in the second round who are going to as good or better as the names being mentioned in the first round. No need to trade back into first to grab what I believe are mediocre talents that aren’t worthy of a first round grade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 If we come away with a combo of: • Ekwonu or Thibs at 4 • Sauce or Penning at 10 • Olave or Williams in a trade up anything after that is gravy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTR, not saying I myself want to... just looking what they've done. using that many of your top 30 visits on the upper crust of the WRs suggests they want to know who to pick later on if they (for example) stuck with Olave and Burks as #35 draws nearer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe for the London lovers, if Thibs is the guy at #4, maybe London is a gimme a #10 - no need to work him out. I think the Jets have to prepare to take a WR later because they don't know how the draft will fall. They may like Wilson at 10 but not London and are not prepared to take another receiver at 10. If Wilson is off the board at 10, they may pivot and grab another player at another position and then go WR in round 2 or trade up into late round 1 to grab a WR. There are so many variables that JD has to be prepared to go in a different direction with each pick depending on who is on the board. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Willie White Shoes Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I do not see a Saleh coached team drafting a CB in the first round, let alone with the 4th pick. I would be both shocked and disappointed if they do that. I think the pick at 4 will be edge or OT. The pick at 10 depends on who is there. The picks early in the 2nd depend on who they picked at 4 and 10 and who is on the board. Saleh wants to emphasize getting the QB over coverage (rightfully so in today's NFL). I see them picking edge before a DB with each of the first 4 picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Trade down from 4 or 10, then trade back up into the late 1st. The New York Jets select: Jahan Dotson - WR - Penn State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Sure, of course they might. They've been willing to part ways with numerous picks for a WR, so if they're in love with someone and afraid he's not making it to 35, I could see it. Depends on how it falls, obviously. We've seen some serious talent go 2nd round past few years, many of which people are mentioning in trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Could for a few reasons, like take one at 10 but what if Saints call and want to come up? Then who do we look at that range. Or for a trade up back into the first like you mentioned. Cover your ground! Either way, it shows us they’ll def take a WR in the first, it’s just a matter of where.

But it requires you read and reflect on there points I made, and show up with more than “No..” Honestly, I apologize for not being more detailed, it wasn't meant as an affront to you...just something I feel strongly about and made a quick comment. You are right with your response. With that said, here you go. 1) I don't believe doing diligence on WR's doesn't show, in any way, that you don't want your top choice. In fact, in my opinion, it shows the opposite. 2) They didn't do this much diligence on QB's because they were taking one at 2 and knew it was going to be one of two guys. Moreover there really were only 5 potential candidates and they did spend time with all of them. 3) When picking at 10 you really don't know what other teams think and need to be prepared for multiple scenarios. Far more variables. What if you're first 2 o3 choices are gone by then? If you're picking at 10 and are taking a WR - you better damn sure have at least a list of your top 4 or 5..and in order to do that you must do detailed research on every majorl prospect which happens to be pretty deep this year. 4) Now, you didn't reference this - but JD's pursuit of a top tier WR in the off-season and statements along the lines of the offense would be complete if they had Hill - he knows they need a number 1. IMO, this offense is complete - no longer any holes - other than WR1 (and depth) but other than WR1 - there's legitimate talent at every position. Just too key a piece to mess around with. I can see where you're going with this and I get it. I can absolutely follow your logic, I just see if differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K_O_Brien Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Take your receiver at 10. Then trade up from 35 for your edge. Edge class is deeper than receiver. Sauce at 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjasi Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I get the argument, but I’d still just take the guy I like at 10 and keep all my assets. Then again, I suppose they might want an edge or someone else at 10. I was actually going to start a thread asking about whether the Jets were going to meet with London.
