Popular Post OtherwiseHappyinLife Posted April 28, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2023 Sorry if already posted… lost somewhere in the weeds. I have no idea if this was a good pick or not. I read in another article that he seemed to be on the radars of many teams so there is no telling if he would have lasted until mid round 2. We have no idea if he was the target all along if they didn’t get a good enough offer to trade down. But I love watching matchups like those above where we see him go 1:1 against the 2nd OT picked in this draft. The Jets used this pick to fill a premium position 1 year ahead of schedule, when Lawson’s contract expires. Not much different than what some expected at OT where smart money is now on the Jets picking up Becton’s 5th year. In a way, this could have been a bet on Becton over Lawson .. which is why the Jets conceded to trade down to 15 knowing they might lose out at the tackle spot. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bitonti Posted April 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2023 He's got a sick spin move and can faint his guy off balance because they are looking for the spin It's rare that these rookies have moves coming out.

BigRy56 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 The guy has the skills and the motor to get to the QB often. Not one person has been killing the pick itself, just that it was made at 15 instead of 25. When McDonald Huff’s Josh Allen to clinch a division title in December, we can all pop the Hennessy and kick back and enjoy the pick together 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I thought but with more speed and athleticism. We shall see. If this defense carries over from last year and he contributes (which he will) this will be an unbelievable defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't find that anywhere for this year's class. Here's the sack seer Will McDonald IV, Iowa State SackSEER Projection: 20.6 sacks through fifth season Scouts, Inc.: No. 65 Overall Similar Historical Prospects: Leonard Little, Julian Peterson Aside for possibly one sleeper in the later rounds, SackSEER believes that Will McDonald IV provides the best value of any edge rusher in this year's draft. McDonald is consistently strong in each of SackSEER's metrics and has a profile that is very similar to prospects who have succeeded in the past. McDonald performed both the vertical leap and broad jump at the combine, despite just recovering from a fever. He performed well, recording a vertical leap of 36 inches and a broad jump of 11 feet even. McDonald followed up this performance at his pro day by running the 40-yard dash in what has been reported in the 4.62-second to 4.63-second range. There has been some inconsistent reporting on his 3-cone drill time, but all of his reported times are exemplary. McDonald's production was also good. McDonald recorded 10.5 and 11.5 sacks in his sophomore and junior years, respectively, before dropping to only 5.0 sacks as a senior. The drop in sack production is not too concerning—sometimes a dominant college player loses production after facing increasing double teams and plays called away from him. McDonald also recorded seven passes defensed, which gives him a slightly above average passes defensed rate. McDonald's biggest weakness is his relatively small size at 239 pounds. However, several edge rushers weighing in at less than McDonald have found success, such as Leonard Little, Robert Mathis, and Trent Cole. This is a draft that SackSEER thinks is, overall, weak at the edge rusher position and a bit overrated. In a draft like this, McDonald could provide terrific value in the second round. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets didnt miss on a blue chipper, just average dudes, IMO. I liked Paris Johnson a lot, but yeah I agree with this. I would have Becton (and the rest of the top end of that class) over all of the guys this year as a prospect. Obviously tough to rely on the health of Becton and an older Duane Brown, but IF they do stay healthy I don’t think any tackle they could have drafted this year was anywhere near a lock to touch the field at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
