faba Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I like the idea of building a strong defense- a running back by committee has proven to be doable to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterNorth09 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 If we could cut Thomas Jones without taking a significant cap hit I'd be all for drafting McFadden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The two are a good combination of power and speed, and both have the ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. Which one is the power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJ667 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Or they could draft Jonathan stewart and then completely focus on the defense. maybe even trade down and get him and some extra picks. sounds good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Or they could draft Jonathan stewart and then completely focus on the defense. maybe even trade down and get him and some extra picks. sounds good to me. I'm all for this move, but it's very hard now to trade back during the draft....and with the decreased from 15 min. to 10 min. time in the first round, it's really hard to do......I don't think that's a likely scenario.

DMaynard Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The jets NUMBER ONE NEED is an explosive home run hitting player. McFadden COULD become that type of guy. Really? Is McFadden going to score more TD's than Brady will throw for? The Jets number one need to is build a defense that will pressure Tom Brady.

JayKwaz Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 can we just not pick in the alloted time and when it gets to say the 9th pick then take Jon Stewart and pay him 9th money? didnt the Vikings basically do that 2 years in a row? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistalava Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 My question is: are the upgrades on the O-line good for an average of an additional YPC? If so, that's a pretty dramatic improvement to last year's stats. If so, I have no problems going with what we have and using the 6th pick on a defensive player.

SoFlaJets Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I'm telling you that a lot of you are underestimating Jesse Chatham-that guy is gonna be good for us this year-as long as we don't do something stoopid like drafting a skinny legged all hype second coming of Santana Moss but at RB instead of WR who isn't built for the pro game.

PantyHose&Furs Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The jets NUMBER ONE NEED is an explosive home run hitting player. McFadden COULD become that type of guy. I agree the Jets #1 need is an explosive, home run hitting player. However, I'm completely open to that player playing on offense or defense. So long as our pick at 6 plays like a stud we'll be fine. Truth be told...I'm warming to the idea of drafting Ryan. If by chance this guy really is a Tier 1 QB we will finally have ourselves a consistent chance every year. Remember guys...QB is the most important position on the field. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, you can, but it puts a big black eye on Jets with the league and it's fan base....also Jon Stewart would just hold out for #6 money anyway.

Your probably right about the hold out. The other problem is NE might take him. If he is the guy they want at 6, take him, I'm good with that.

Irish Jet Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 We may not need a Running back in some people's eyes but no one can deny that we need a playmaker. If the front office well and truly believes that McFadden will be a great playmaker in this league they better not pass on him.If they do indeed pull the trigger I will have no problem with us taking him and will support him all the way. Oh and Thomas Jones sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So tell me what makes u think this?? because he has thicker legs??? lol stupidity is so amazing.. I know people like you... just trying to be different or just trying sound smart...lol I'm just trying to be different? Maybe its because I've watched every single one of Stewarts games in college and anyone who watches him can tell he will be a phenomonal back. The only negatives I've ever heard from people is he gets injured too often (huge misconception), he's slow (he's fast as hell, if he didn't have turf toe he would have run a sub 4.4 at the combine), and that he comes from a spread offense which honestly isn't that big of a deal. Stewart will drag defenders for extra yards because he's absolutley huge, if you ever see the man in person its shocking how large his legs are. He is a great reciever out of the backfield and rarley drops passes and when he needed to he can block. At his size it also won't be very hard to teach him how to block better making him a force there. I don't understand how people can not be in awe of a player who is 235lbs and legitimately runs a sub 4.4 40. Do you realize how absurd that is?

DMaynard Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 you can if they are in your division. You can't win the division without beating the teams in it. usually. you have to build your team in this manner. beat the teams in your division be able to beat the teams in conference be able to beat other conference to win Super Bowl Thank you. Especially if that team went 18-1, while setting NFL records. You can win a wildcard and try to get to the SB around them. But they will probably be waiting for you in the Conference championship game in their house if you are lucky enough to get that far. Beat the bully in your neighborhood.
