Popular Post 32EBoozer Posted April 27 Popular Post Share Posted April 27 According to a few beat reports, Jets tried moving up to get a top 3 WR. Odunze would be the only possible player due to our lack of draft capital. So…. Odunze + a late 4th OL pick or Fashanu & Corley. I’m happy with how things turned out! 10 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan4life72 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Agreed. I was listening to a podcast, haven't checked how truthful, but they said there have been way more 3rd-4th round WR hits than 3rd-4th round OTs. Plus we have taken Mitchell and Warren in the 4th back to back years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post slats Posted April 27 Popular Post Share Posted April 27 If the Jets took Odunze, the team probably would’ve moved Wilson into the slot a lot this season. If it was Bowers, he would’ve primarily filled the slot role from an H-back position. Now Odunze would’ve been the future starting X, with the future possibly this year as Williams recovers, but by taking the OT there they should be set at LT in 2025, instead. With Corley you hope you’re getting a bigger Wayne Chrebet/Laveranues Coles to man the slot. When we took Coles in the third round, he was also described as a WR in a RB’s body, and Corley has 15 pounds on him (25 on Wayne). And then you have the Deebo comps. Everyone who wanted a weapon first, position second with the first rounder should be pretty happy with this pick. I know I am. 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTJetsFan Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Outside of Rome @10 and an OT in the 3rd (kid from Yale), this was my next dream draft 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenFish Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 That assumes we would have given up our 3rd. Going to say 8 would have cost us 2 4th. In that scenario it would have been Odunze + Amegadjie. I think this is a more fair comparison and probably closer to even. Considering how many good prospects are still on the board, these 4th rounders are going to be nice. I think JD did the right think moving back to 11 and getting an OT. I prefer the approach he took. But I would have been fine with a trade up to 8 as well. But we know that a trade up was not even an option. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derp Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I don’t think they actually had an opportunity to move up. If we pretend they did they could've moved up a bit for Odunze and then a little for Suamataia last night. Today would be less fun and probably would be down a pick next year but think we’d all have been pretty pumped about that outcome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been saying all along is if the Jets picked a top tier receiver at #10, they would have to settle for a 3rd tier left tackle at #72. Doing it this way, at least they can have more trust, in if Tyron gets injured, that Fashanu can step in and better protect Rodgers. I feel that while Corley is not a top tier receiver, he adds an element to the offense that will be dynamic, and immediately pay off dividends. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know what would have happened had he been successful in trading up for Odzune. For example, he may have been successful again and traded up to get Rosengarten. Rosengarten + Odzune is a clear (prospect wise) improvement over Fashanu + Corley, I think and I think most would have said prior to the draft. What happened happened, and these guys haven't played a single NFL down yet. Evaluations come later. Keep in mind, not long ago people here thought Becton + Mims was better than ... 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take Fashanu and Corley It's not close because odunze was never an option. Nobody would trade out. This is a pointless thread. A better question is Bowers (big slot yac guy) plus bum oline vs franchise LT olu and yac god corley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 This team still badly needs an impact outside WR opposite Garrett Wilson. Mike Williams is nothing more than a question mark. Joe D needs to look at the veteran trade market ASAP. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, he may have been successful again and traded up to get Rosengarten. If we traded up 2 spots, from 10 to 8, we would have had to give up #72 pick, and something else. By trading back, we got an extra 4th and 5th round pick. There would have been no way to get up to get Rosengarten, unless we gave up draft picks in next years draft. So, we would not have been successful to get Rosengarten. Additionally, if Tyron goes down, we need a top level left tackle that can protect Rodgers on his blind side. Fashanu is the best pass protector on the left tackle spot in the entire draft, which includes Joe Alt. So, I feel that we did it right, IMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some insane reason Atlanta after signing Cousins to 100M for 4 years wanted QB Penix and were hell bent on getting him. Only chance they were trading down out of that pick would have been for a haul even down to 10, though Penix would have been there at 10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s why I opened with don’t think they had the opportunity. I will say if Odunze isn’t there a real chance the Bears drop and who knows who moves up. We know the Raiders liked Penix.

It's not like the 2020 draft where we actually had options at our pick. I pounded the table for CeeDee Lamb. But the OL guys said we got Becton AND Mims. Sounded great then. Not so hot now. The comparison this draft is for those that wanted Bowers (not me by the way). But it's Bowers/Amegadjie vs. Fashanu/Corley. That's what we will debate 3 years from now. I'm on the Fashanu/Corley side. I personally would have drafted Roman Wilson at 72. Can't believe he lasted as long as he did. Best WR are the ones that are open. And that man can separate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had checked the draft tracker earlier and saw Corley and Wilson were still available. I had a slight preference for Corley but would have been just as happy with Wilson. My words were "Please, Corley or Wilson here." Very happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets0712 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Even if Odunze was there at 10. And I wanted him.

rangerous Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I thought I saw a study a while back about the relative draft placement of oline versus dline players. The study implied that oline players should be drafted in the first or second rounds and dline down in the fourth round.. obviously there’s no hard a fast rule but the jets needed a guy who can play left tackle, be mostly ready from day one, and then start next season. I don’t think they would’ve found such a player in the third or fourth rounds. As for the wr, the jets do have quite a few targets for Rodgers. Sure there’s an injury risk for Williams but between gWilson, Williams, Lazard, breece, Conklin, Rucker, with cameos by the rest there are enough pass catchers.

SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 They wanted Nabers. But Giants weren’t moving. Tenn and Atl weren’t moving. Called Bears, they weren’t moving either. Tried but everyone wanted to make their pick. Atl wanted to move back into the first to 10 but they didn’t have enough. Rams tried to come up as well but JD didn’t want that far down to 19.

Atlanta owner should really ask around, who was drafting penix in first, definitely top half. Otherwise Atl gm could have easily acquired more picks and still had their pick. Much like Will McDonald last yr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
