Adoni Beast Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I think both are good enough to warrant sitting between 12-15 to trade up, and we have no second rounder this year to get head and do the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augustiniak Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I think there could be teams behind the jets who want to jump up and grab a qb so i could see one of those tackles getting pushed back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRy56 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Without a doubt. I could also see JD trying to move up a few spots if he gets the vibe that they will go earlier than 10. Time to get aggressive 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post UntouchableCrew Posted January 10 Popular Post Share Posted January 10 I'd be surprised. LT is not a position that slides if anything it's a position where there's a run and guys go higher than expected. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenFish Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Hmm. Crossing my fingers. There’s a chance. I think the key teams will be: - Titans: They need a OT - Saints: They need OT. Could jump uS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams in need of a LT will also likely be eyeing 6-9 as a target to trade up to knowing the Jets need a LT. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjasi Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I think the first 4 picks will very likely be 3 QBs and MHJ. I also think Atlanta taking Turner makes a ton of sense. Let's assume that all happens. That leaves 4 more picks before us - If 3 of those 4 picks are Bowers, Odunze, and Nabers, we are good. Not impossible - but probably not most likely. IMO, the chances are that we will be staring at Bowers and one of Odunze or Nabers. Of course, this is all super early - players will shoot up the board and others will drop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChewyandtheJets Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 What’s funny is with the Jets consistently drafting 2nd, 3rd, 5th etc is that it feels like pick 10 sucks when in fact it’s still a top 10 pick. Some great players will be available, I’m not sure we will have evaluated well enough to select one though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it does. I doubt it but I proposed a similar scenario. The key selections will be - the Pats at pick #3, the Chargers at pick #5 and the Giants at pick 6. Assuming CHI and WAS take QBs - do the Pats take the #3 QB? Or do they take MHJ - potentially the best prospect in the draft? This is critical because if they choose to take MHJ, I highly doubt ARI takes a QB, so I think this pushes up a WR (a major need for ARI) OR a defender. Both good things for the Jets. The Chargers might elect to take one of Alt or Fashanu if they are there to play RT (Slater stays at LT). But they also have a need at WR and defense. So this decision will be critical. If they go defense. Obviously good for the Jets because Tenn is probably going OT (depending on FA). For the Giants theres the domino effect from the Pats pick. If they go MHJ and pass on a QB, the Giants may decide to take that 3rd QB (Daniels?) instead of continuing to build around Danny Dimes. Obviously great for the Jets because the Falcons and Bears don't really need an OT. If the Giants decide to take a T, welp, Tenn is probably going to take the 2nd T and the Jets are effed. I think it may go something like this: CHI- Williams WAS- Maye NE- MHJ ARI- Nabers LA- Latu NYG- Daniels TEN- Fashanu ATL- Turner CHI- Odunze NYJ- Alt Thats probably the best shot we have at one of the top 2 OTs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LT is not a position that slides if anything it's a position where there's a run and guys go higher than expected. @JustInFudge made an interesting point in a thread a couple weeks ago - effectively that the first tackle often has come off the board around pick 6 or 7 lately. Seems reasonable that Tennessee is the only team that takes a tackle. Although maybe the Bears drop down to a team that wants to move ahead of the Jets for a tackle if Douglas telegraphs the need. That said, as long as there’s a defensive player going top 9 - and it seems likely Atlanta goes edge - there should be a tier 2 offensive talent available to the Jets at 10. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that trade up from someone else that I think gets us. I wonder if the falcons would take Huff in a tag and trade to swap firsts with us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could see a team doing that and having 4 qbs gone before the jets pick. It’s not that far fetched that one of those tackles falls to 10 in this draft.

I wonder if the falcons would take Huff in a tag and trade to swap firsts with us. That'd be interesting. I think the trade possibility is why Douglas needs to beef up tackle in free agency. It cannot be obvious they're going tackle in the draft. There needs to be a situation that it's okay for them to take WR3, Bowers, etc if that's who's there. The defensive player top nine is big though. Even if they're totally committed to tackle, I think if a defensive player goes top nine then someone from that second tier of offensive prospects makes it to ten. To me, you take that player. But if there's a commitment to going OT, then having a tier drop after your pick makes it easier to move down (if the tier 2 offensive player isn't a tackle, if it is then you just take him). I kind of suspect Fashanu is there at ten honestly. I think he's become boring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be surprised if one of their 1st two picks doesnt go to a WR. They could trade back at 1 and take a WR there.

There’s several teams picking in the teens starting with Minnesota who may want one of those qbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT Every year, someone does something that is a head scratcher. Not so sure about that. Bowers is the sleeper of the draft. Meaning there is a team with a top five pick that is hoping no one else sees what they do in Bowers. IMHO, he is the third most valuable player in the draft not including QB's which of many top rated QB's will be major busts. Alt, MHJ and Bowers are the best three players in the draft, IMHO. Bowers is a great rout runner, is aggressive to the ball, has good hands, is aware of the QB and is a good blocker. He will make a good offense and QB elite. I cant see him dropping lower than 5 unless there are some surprise trades for QB's that we are not expecting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
