Random Draft Day musings

[MaybeOneDay]

- Seems there is a ton of Offensive Talent available in this draft

- Despite some high-profile misses, I have a lot of faith in Joe Douglas...figured he's learned a thing or 2 over these years also (Smart people learn a ton from their mistakes).  Hopefully JD has the inner hubris to evaluate what went wrong with his misses, as well as evaluated what went right with his multiple huge hits.  I believe we have a better version of the guy today than we did years ago.  I BELIEVE whatever happens over these next 3 days, the Jets will come through as a better team with more talent.

- Personal preference is a trade down to recoup our missing 2nd...could see Indy moving up, or maybe a team for a QB.  Ideal scenario is a QB being available, and we can squeeze some more value out of a team coming up their QB.  If the Jets aren't interested in Bowers at 10 and all this talk was a smoke screen...Brilliant! I think they may be able to squeeze Indy or another team (Bengals?) who may really want him.  Would be amazing if they can pull off a trade back, recoup a 2nd, and still get a quality O-Lineman.  I love what I've read about Fuaga....also the kid from Penn St.  It's certainly possible one or even both are there at 15 if we can swing a deal with the Colts.

- MHJ would be amazing if we could pull it off, but I don't think he's getting past 5.  That cost would be prohibitive, I fear.  But if he slips and the cost isn't too terrible, this would be a dream.

- I love me some Rome Odunze, seems like a real solid, well liked dude, and obviously very productive.  I also think he'd compliment GW very well.

- If Bowers is the pick, that's cool too, as an elite TE can really escalate an offense.  Would just prefer to get one later in the draft...but if the Jets feel this kid can be a top TE in the NFL, no problem taking him at 10.

- For the love of God, please no Defense (at least in the first round).

- Later Round TE I love if the Jets pass on Bowers:  Jaheim Bell

- My wish:  Trade back, Quality O-Lineman in the 1st, Ladd McConkey in the 2nd, whoever Saleh wants for his Defense in the 3rd

- Enjoy the Draft, everyone!  Go Jets!
