LAD_Brooklyn Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Oregon pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux doesn’t like the pre-draft process. He may end up liking the draft itself. A lot. PointsBet has Thibodeaux pegged at the +150 favorite to be the fourth overall pick, by the Jets. That will surprise many who have Thibodeaux pegged to slip and slide out of the top 10. (Our one and only mock draft puts him to the Jets, at the tenth pick.) Next on the list is Florida State edge rusher Jermaine Johnson at +300, followed by Cincinnati cornerback Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner at +475 and N.C. State tackle Ikem Ekwonu at +500. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAD_Brooklyn Posted April 27, 2022 Author Share Posted April 27, 2022 1. Jaguars: Travon Walker, defensive end, Georgia. They thought about taking a tackle. The current thinking is they will stick with a pass rusher. 2. Lions: Aidan Hutchinson, defensive end, Michigan. He fills a need, and his Michigan connection is great for business. If he’s there, it’s a no-brainer. 3. Texans: Evan Neal, tackle, Alabama. A team that has plenty of needs could go in plenty of different directions here. 4. Jets: Ahmad “Sauce” Gardner, cornerback, Cincinnati. The Jets migrate from Revis Island to Sauce City. 5. Giants: Ikem Ekwonu, tackle, N.C. State. The offensive line is and has been a mess. Ekwonu starts the process of cleaning things up. 6. Panthers: Charles Cross, tackle, Mississippi State. They need a quarterback, but they ultimately may not like one enough to make him the sixth pick. 7. Giants: Drake London, receiver, USC. I’d personally go with Jameson Williams here, but I’m deferring to the person who crafted this draft. 8. Falcons: Kyle Hamilton, safety, Notre Dame. A potential generational talent becomes the anchor of a team that is hoping to once again become a perennial contender. 9. Seahawks: Derek Stingley, Jr., cornerback, LSU. They could trade down, or they could grab a guy who could become one of the cornerstones of Legion of Boom 2.0. 10. Jets: Kavon Thibodeaux, edge rusher, Oregon. All those people who are talking about Thibodeaux sliding out of the top 10 could be hoping he does, so that they can draft him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the Claw Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 If he’s there and there’s no trade back options, I think he should be the pick @ #4. I’m not super thrilled with him as a prospect, but I’ll take a non redundancy over a redundancy every time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj meadowlands Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 The Jets won't take him because they are morons and will overthink it.

Same as them taking the other players we may covet, but what's the point... we don't get to pick a number of players at the 4th pick. So if they get KT at 5 and he turns out to be LT, and we take Ekwonu who turns out to be Brick. I just don't get the point other than SOJ...

Jet25 Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I do not want an edge rusher at 4 who rarely uses his hand or moves to get off blocks. I'm sure the Jets scout team have noticed that in Thibodeaux's game tape. Good speed around the edge and quick off the snap but that's all he has in his game. He has bust written all over him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great adds, on paper, for the Franchise-worst 2021 Jets Defense Saleh produced. Hope you have some serious plans for how to support Zach Wilson and the Offense in 2022 tho, because as constituted today, we're still a bottom-of-league Offense IMO. I know many folks think 2nd and 3rd round WR's are just as good as 1st rounders, so if that's the plan, I hope you're right. Because we need serious help at both WR and RB right now, and Zach hasn't yet shown he can make poor talent look great. And make no mistake, Carter (while a good piece) isn't going to carry the running game alone, and the players behind him are mostly trash, and Davis/Moore/Berrios might be one of the worst starting WR trios in the NFL. You have to have a hell of alot of faith to think that group is good enough to win anything in 2022, or even stay on the field for the whole year. And like RB, the depth guys are mostly trash, Mims most likely included. So great, we got a potential #1 CB and a Pass Rusher, I like both guys just fine. But that Jets O is going to be sad without some addition, and no, we're not getting Deebo at all, mush less for less than a 1st rounder.

KT will go to the Giants and undoubtedly be the next Umenyiora / JPP / Tuck and haunt us for the next decade. It's in the stars. KT is going to be a bust, or a third down package player like Chandler Jones if anything at all. If JD has a brain, he'll take Ickey (but he wont be there as I expect the Jags or Texans to take him), and if Ickey is not there, they will go with Sauce. If both are gone, trade out of the # 4 spot and use the extra pick to buy more WR's. This draft is PACKED with WR's all the way into round three that will be very nice players. Any of these prospects below can be considered as potential starters and I'd wager most of them will wind up being outstanding producers This is the draft to LOAD up on WR's. Garrett Wilson, Ohio State. Jameson Williams, Alabama. Drake London, USC. Chris Olave, Ohio State Treylon Burks, Skyy Moore, Western Michigan George Pickens, Georgia. ...

What team wants to come up to #4, for which player and give up all those picks to do so. I'm not opposed but it doesn’t sound like there is a player a team would want to go get and for the draft capital it would take. If the QBs were rated higher, definitely possible. We’ll see.
