JetNation 2023 Mock Draft - Discussion

[#27TheDominator]

There you go.  I took the combine darling.  Suck it all you production over traits guys.  I guess there might be some size and medical concerns with the pec, but give me a guy who can run.  

I like Kancey as much as the next guy, but there are probably plenty of teams that are not interested in a DT with 29-30" arms.  He was on my list, but I don't see him as some super steal in the late 1st.  I did not like the Mayer pick, but apparently at least one guy - Kelly at the Ringer has him as the 2nd best pass catcher behind JSN and 12th overall.  I don't see it.

Like your pick. Gives a ton of versatility. Great value at this spot. Can't believe he lasted that long.

I’m a little behind in my research this year, but as usual love that this mock helps me acclimate to the prospects as I just don’t have life bandwidth for NCAAfootball. 

The Colts are a mess right now.

Obviously happy to grab QB1 in Petty, but the reality I had last night is that they have too many holes to worry about ‘need picks’. I considered a lot of players at #35, but Drew Sanders read like a “QB of the defense” pick. I like that he has DE or OLB versatility and can cover, based on scouting reports. The Colts have a good DL, but behind it is a lot of question marks. If guys come back, then this just bolsters that group, either way Sandrrs is the future nucleus of this D.

When talent, value and need meet up, it’s great. Colts lost a very good LB to the Giants. This was a no brained. Good job.

Banks pick is great value.  I think it was The Athletic who has him projected as 1st round.  No way he lasts this far in the actual draft.

edit: oops   I meant this as a response to @section314 who selected Banks.

Think you are getting your Bryce's mixed up.  I think Young at 4 is just a tad better pick than a guy like Petty.

Thank you. I remade my big board near the end of rd 1, and he was in my top 3. Two went off, and when Seattle offered to trade down from 37, and I to move from 44. Knew he wouldn’t last. We actually finalized the trade early this AM. Was nervous that @#27TheDominatormight grab him for the Rams to replace Ramsey. When he was still there, we ran the card up to the computer.?

I think CB in general is a great value position in this draft.  I think some damn good prospects will be available throughout the draft.

Probably a bit of an overpay to move up and get my guy, but I have theater tickets with the wife tomorrow and going to be in Chicago and offline most of the day.  This allows me to get one of the guys I had targeted for 45.

Thanks.

What are you going to see?

Indeed.  The top end is pretty good for sure.

I think his taste's are higher than that! After all he is a Bulldogs, Jets, Mets fan!

"Draft Day" would be equal to being an Icelander fan!

Make your pick.  You can change it up until PepPep picks.

I thought about him.  Anybody with those kind of traits is intriguing.  Still when your LB/EDGE is faster than the  twitchy CB prospect I know where I will end up most of the time 

[Neilos]

Titans could be looking to trade down from 41 if anyone looking to come up?

[Dcat]

One of those 2's will be Packers' IRL.  I still think you make the exception.  For the purposes of reality.  JMO.  

[Neilos]

Sod it. Now off out for dinner and wife would kill me if I was glued to this site. Pick is in. Jets on the clock!

[Dcat]

@32EBoozer

When you make your pair of Jets selections in rd 2, just let us know which one would have been your "real" pick for round 2.  LOL.  The other one is just a fantasy.

Nice pick, Foskey is a sneaky good pick imo

Agreed. Fast, strong and has great motor.

[#27TheDominator]

Mazi was probably my pick if Nolan was gone.  I thought about Hyatt too but when the WR that takes the top off a D runs a slower 40 than the LB I know where i am going.  Still Hyatt had a lot of interesting metrics.

[NYJetsVets91]

Seahawks not thrilled with who's left on the board at this spot.. missed all my targets for this pick, would be willing to slide back a few picks if anyone has someone they want sitting there.

[Lith]

@32EBoozer go ahead and make your next pick.  As of today, it is still a Jets pick, so make the pick.

Maybe it is because I have not spent as much time as I usually do evaluating the class, but this class is just so uninspiring to me.  Was not happy with my options at 15, and I was just thinking if the Packers had acquired the pick from NYJ, I have no idea who I would take.  I just can't get excited about this draft class.

[Beerfish]

Time to be mr unpopular.   It is utterly absurd to have back to back picks and not have them go one after the other in about 5 minutes time at the very most.  With two picks clearly coming up, any trade negotiations should have happened long ago if any one was interested.
