Aqua4ever04 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I've been going through 4 rounds of the draft for each team and here's what I've got for the Jets so far. 1. (17) DE Tyson Jackson Louisiana State - The Jets don't have any glaring needs except maybe at wide receiver. Tyson Jackson presents great value at the 17 spot and with Shaun Ellis and Kenyon Coleman getting long in the tooth, this quintessential 3-4 end can be groomed into the next great run stuff, pocket pushing defensive end. Jackson is good with his arms, stacks the line of scrimmage and can shed blockers to make the play on the ball carrier. 2. (52) WR Derrick Williams Penn State - With Laveraneous Coles all but out in NY and Jericho Cotchery's lack of vertical threat, the Jets could add a speedster like Williams. He doesn't have blazing speed, but it's deceptive and he runs terrific routes. 3. (76) CB Coye Francies San Jose State - Dwight Lowery was hot and cold in 2008 and his former teamate would give the Jets some much needed depth and size at the cornerback position. Francies is a physical specimen that excells against the run, has good transitional speed and can turn and run with most wide outs. 4. (111) FB Quinn Johnson Louisana State - Assuming he slides to this spot, Johnson would be excellent value at this spot. Tony Richardson isn't the player he once was and the Jets need to address the fullback position relatively soon. Johnson can carry the ball in short yardage, clear lanes, and has good hands out of the backfield. 4. (114) Rashad Jennings Liberty - A big time thumper, Jennings could be groomed under Thomas Jones and Leon Washington as the current goal line back and possible heir apparent to Jones. He runs with a low center of gravity and has good explosiveness through the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have blazing speed, but it's deceptive and he runs terrific routes. so he is another cotchery? 3.

Francies is a physical specimen that excells against the run, has good transitional speed and can turn and run with most wide outs. not enough film on him 4.

Tony Richardson isn't the player he once was and the Jets need to address the fullback position relatively soon. Johnson can carry the ball in short yardage, clear lanes, and has good hands out of the backfield. for jets round 4 = round 1 we are not wasting it on a FB 4. (114) Rashad Jennings Liberty - A big time thumper, Jennings could be groomed under Thomas Jones and Leon Washington as the current goal line back and possible heir apparent to Jones. He runs with a low center of gravity and has good explosiveness through the hole not a bad pick, he needs to do a better job shaking defenders in open field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its tough to predict where he well go, especially this early without combine. He could very well climb up the charts after a solid workout. Just dont know if thats what we want to target that early. I dont know about Derrick Williams. He doesnt have blazing speed and its not like he was this huge producer in college. He had a nice Snr. season and a bunch of average seasons prior. I think there are going to better WR's available. Very hard to predict that this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boynton Beach Jets Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 The problem with mock drafts are come April they will change totally. There is so much going to happen between now and the draft. Free agency will change how players fall in the draft. I have no problem with the Jets going DE Tyson Jackson, but that said we have a need ILB to play along side David Harris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gang_green03 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 That's a pretty solid mock. I wouldn't freak out if that's how it went. The only problem I have is with the FB pick. It wouldn't be a bad idea, even though I wouldn't do it, if he was a better prospect. I don't think its necessary to reach in the 4th. He has great potential as a blocker and maybe at the goaline but he's raw and is pretty one dimensional. Also, if we get Jennings on top of that then he wouldn't even be needed as a short yardage back so it would make him even more one dimensional. Why not grab him in the 6th or even the 5th round?

Spudicus Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Like I said before I have no problem if comming out of the draft this what we ended up with but i'd also feel like we could have done better...it just feels like a whole bunch of "well the guy we wanted wasn't there" sort of thing, like we drafted all fallback guys. We should be able to get better with our 3rd and 4th draft picks but Jennings I'd really like and look at Leron McLain when he was taken, drafting a FB early can work but only if you plan on using him heavily as a pass catcher and runner otherwise it's a waste for a blocker. I'd be fine with Jackson as a pick, there are a couple nw 3-4's picking ahead of us in GB and Denver. One will Take Raji and the other Maualuga. Both top corners will be off the board as well to New Orleans and possibly Houston if they go bap or trade down with someone trying to get ahead of us, so Jackson may be all we are left with.

BroadwayJoe12 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 For all those people bashing the pick of Quinn Johnson I have three questions for you; 1) Did you watch LSU play at all this year? 2) Did you watch any of the senior bowl practices or games?? 3) Did you see what Le'Ron McClain did the last couple years?? Everyone wants a more power running game and I would bet good money most of you would like to add a Le'Ron McClain type runner to our team. Some talk about Jennings, or Shone Green etc. but watching Johnson the last couple of years, he's a stud. He's a great lead blocker with tremendous vision, but can also hit the hole hard. As shown in the senior bowl, he has good hands out of the backfield and is just a football player. I think the biggest knock that a lot of you have on him is that he's labeled as a FB and not a RB. If he had the same skill set and had the RB label I'm sure people would like him more. Also after seeing what Peyton Hillis did this year for the broncos, power running type FBs who can catch the ball outta the backfield will be given a harder look.

Papageorgio268 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 What's everyone's beef with Cotch? He's a great player, just we had no QB this season. I don't think the problem with him, it is in having another one of him. We need a receiver with height and speed, not just another fast guy with good hands. A guy like Calvin Johnson or T.O. (without the problems) would really make this offense work. Someone that will draw double coverage nearly every time he's on the field. Cotchery, although he'll make great plays, will never warrant that kind of coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets1Fan Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Laurinaitis will be Rex's 1st pick this year. He will build his LB corp similar to that which he developed in Baltimore. ***of course, all this is contingent upon Ray Ray not signing with the Jets, which we all know will happen!!*** If Vontae Davis is still there he will pick him first, if not, he'll go everette brown, if not, he'll go Brian Cushing.

Just please draft a stud defense and develop Gholston like i know you can! GO J E T S!! So is Rex picking little animal first or Vontae Davis?? Just playin bud. I personally don't think little animal is a good fit in a 34; he gets dominated when teams run right at him, as shown in the championship against LSU last year. He is the epitome of a Mike or Will backer in a 43 front. Davis is an absolute stud, but I don't think we need another #1 opposite revis, when a good pass rush could do the same thing. I wouldn't be opposed to targeting someone in the later rounds. I don't think we need to draft another OLB project in brown, we still have gholston to work on as well as pace and thomas. I like cushing as well, but that brings us back to the pervious post. I would be interested to see if Clay Matthews could play ILB in the 34. From what i saw at the senior bowl and USC it seems like he would be capable of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Besides Harvin, but if the man can't stay healthy in College I say no thank you in the NFL). I will come out with one closer to April for the Jets & the 1st round. I have to watch the Combine before I can think of draft boards. If you're going to pick for the Jets, give us a QB, WR with height & speed, CB, ILB or S.
