Jets Will / Should Draft Kayvon Thibodeaux?

[Sarge4Tide]

If he is there at #4, will the Jets draft Kayvon Thibodeaux? Should the draft Kayvon Thibodeaux if he is there?

[T0mShane]

Rumor has it that the Giants want no part of Thibodeaux, which is saying something because the Bills (where the current Giants administration is from) seemed to take chances on guys with character questions.

They same team that’s currently trying to trade a guy with character questions? That’s a interesting take. 

[65 Toss Power Trap]

No problem at all if they draft him. I think they might go Ickey/Neal. 

[jetsons]

YES!!!... & YES!!!

[Darnold Schwarzenegger]

I don’t think they would draft him if he is there at 4. I think he should be the pick if he is available. But I think he will be gone before the 4th pick 

[New York Mick]

I hope he’s gone by the 4th pick so the Jets don’t draft him if he is a headache or if they pass on him and he’s a beast. It’s a win win if he’s gone. I just have a bad feeling about him. 

[bla bla bla]

I hope he's gone before us.

1) I don't trust he's 100% all in

2) I don't want to be wrong and gift wrap him for the Giants

[Jet_Engine1]

After I gave it a minute to process all the nonsense,  if thats the choice, I gotta go with Thibs there. Do I love him? No. But I'm not going Oline first-round 3 years in a row, I'm taking a player at a position that will improve the team most and make an impact immediately.

 

Guy has the measurables, has a great first step, outbenched Clowney, and can take the pressure off of a young but pretty decent secondary. It's the best value, bang for your buck position, and a position of desperate need, and yes, he very well as be the BPA there as well...

 

WR, Backup/Future OT, DB can all wait. 

 

WR at 10, backup/future OT and LB at 35-39.

 

Take the edge if he's there.

[CanadienJetsFan]

What do I know.

if he checks all the “boxes” then yes.

pick #1 should be a DE

wait, I changed my mind,

trade down!

Do I personally love him? No. But I don't understand the 22 year old Firefighters on the job either, and I think theyre mostly good kids...just different. So Thibs wants to be famous. As long as he understands that being really, really good at their games is what got LeBron, Strahan, Jordan, Tiger etc where they went

 

I'm not going Oline first-round 3 years in a row, thats a Maccagnan level misusenof draft resources, I'm taking a player at a position that will improve the team most and make an impact immediately.

Take the best edge on the board.

 

Got a bit more explosiveness on D, now do it for the O. Honestly, Id be ok with Wilson or Olave at 10, but a top WR added to Moore, Davis, Brax, and the new TEs gives Zach more to work with than any Jets QB since freaking O'Brien.

 

I don't touch the injured guys, I don't touch London. I want my top draft picks to be on the field, bringing Explosiveness to the field day 1.

Sauce or Ickey

Not being a culture fit for the Giants may not necessarily be a bad thing...

Opening running lanes and keeping pressure off of Wilson is an immediate impact. The issue isn’t him acting like a 22 year old it’s acting like a spoiled 22 year old. How’s he going to handle it when he gets his ass handed to him and the NY media and fans tear him apart, how is he going to handle his contract if he does become as good as he thinks he is. Does he pull a Bell and sit out etc. I’d rather have a guy like Karlaftis at 10 and a CB or OT at 4.

Thinking like this is why the Jets are the absolute trash gutter crap of the NFL for the last 10 years. You just described Maccagnans draft philosophy: "Take no risk, nobody notices cowards"

Mac never drafted OL early and took questionable players.

He took the perceived "safe picks" in the first. Period.

[Ecuadorian Jet]

I did not want Darnold because he reminded me of Matt Leinart. When we drafted him, I supported him all the way until the day he was here.

Thibodeaux has some talent, but he is absolutely under the impression that he is better than he really is. He is in for a rude awakening when he finally plays in the NFL. Plus, I see some of the unfounded "Manziel" arrogance. Plus he looks like he will be a diva from 10 miles away.

Do not draft him 

[BigRy56]

Yes and yes. I don’t know if he’s ultimately there at 4 though

[RedBeardedSavage]

I really don't want him.

He's damn near insufferable right now - just wait if he's actually good.

How does he act off he becomes a star?  How does her act off the whole world doesn't collapse like you're worried about?

They have such a strong history of character guys - LT, Meggett, Burris, and on and on
