SUorangefootball Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Assuming: 1. Long 2. Gholston 3. Dorsey 4. McFadden 5. C. Long would you consider Brandon Albert @ #6? ONLY ANSWER THIS BASED ON THE ABOVE DRAFT ORDER AND NO TRADE DOWN OFFERS FOR RYAN. Albert could eventually play RT, he also provides much needed depth at both guard positions. Don't forget, we loose one starter and we can kiss our improved O line goodbye.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBrick Wall Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I never want to take a guard 6th overall. I'd rather take a corner there, even Ryan over Albert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually Albert projects as a tackle at the NFL level. I would simply LOVE to draft him. #6 ? Arrrrrrrr That's a tough call. I would take less than full value and trade down then take him. I honestly feel he'll excell as a OT in the NFL. Of course I thought the same think about Winston Justice and he can't even seem to START in Philly.

Thai Jet Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 WOW!! Just saw SI's Don Banks latest mock draft and he's got Albert going to KC at #5 and the Jets taking Chris Long. Interesting read indeed !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I don't know too much about Albert, but I when I read about a guy that everybody is in love with and he doesn't have any holes or black marks I'm not surprised when he goes much earlier than originally predicted.

MagicBizkit87 Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 With how stacked our offensive line is right now, I honestly wouldn't see the point in us taking Albert. If someone like Gosder Cherilus were to fall to 36 then that is someone on the offensive line that I wouldn't mind us taking. He isn't my first choice in round 2 though, I still want James Hardy in a Jets jersey badly. The 6th pick the only people we should look at are Gholston, Chris Long, and Darren McFadden, if those 3 aren't there, we have to find a trading partner.

The only reason I'd consider O line in the 1st round is for quality depth. If one of the starters goes down for any lenght of time we're in trouble. Plus , just to say, we draft Albert ; next year he's my starting RT and Woody's out looking for work. Woody's the one FA move I have to question as a fan.

I agree we have MUCH bigger holes, but I wouldn't call any line with Damien Woody and Brandon Moore starting "stacked". Woody was even a starter most of the year for Detroit and they were setting sacks allowed records. Besides that, our reserves were unable to unseat Clarke and Clement. We need O line help, just not in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Albert has moved up further than DRob did. As recently as February, wasn't he projected as a late first to early 2nd rounder? Now he's top-5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 The only way I'd want to see the Jets consider Albert is if the first five selections included these players: Matt Ryan Vernon Gholston Chris Long Jake Long Ledois McKelvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drago Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Albert has moved up further than DRob did. As recently as February, wasn't he projected as a late first to early 2nd rounder? Now he's top-5? mostly due to what position he plays. Guards rarely, if ever, go in the top half of the first round. With GM's having a hard on for guards recently it's no surprise he could be a top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryno the Jet Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Way too much OL talent in this draft to spend the #6 on a potential reach. If no trade is available, then take the BAP. If that happens to be Ryan, so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonehands Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Albert is a stud, but in that scenario I would draft Matt Ryan for the Jets. I think Ryan is going to be a good one and I would not pass him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris66 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Guards are making big money now ever since Hutchinson signed that huge deal with Minn. Sort of like the kind of money safeties make now which is closer to cb money than ever. You also have to figure that Brandon Alberts is projected as a tackle and can play any position on the line. hell even Chris Long said he was the best player on that Virginia squad.
