Aten Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 • Muhammad Wilkerson, DE, Temple, 6-4, 315 -- It doesn't make a whole lot of sense for a team that plays a 3-4 defense to take a 5-technique end in the first round Still trying to figure out what in the world this means.

DMaynard Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 On the Jets' radar: Five to watch April, 27, 2011 Apr 271:59PM ETEmail Print Comments By Rich CiminiWe started this more than a month ago -- our five-man watch list for the Jets -- and here we are on draft eve. This is our final list, realistic possibilities for the Jets at No. 30 (based on information culled from the scouting community and people familiar with the Jets' thinking). • Muhammad Wilkerson, DE, Temple, 6-4, 315 -- It doesn't make a whole lot of sense for a team that plays a 3-4 defense to take a 5-technique end in the first round ... unless the team thinks he can play more than one position and can play all three downs. Wilkerson has that kind of versatility, the ability to slide inside in the nickel and rush as a DT. Obviously, the level of competition in college is a concern, but the Linden, N.J., product has the size and athleticism to develop into a starting player. His stock is all over the map. Wilkerson, ranked No. 24 by Scouts, Inc., could go anywhere from 18 (Chargers) to 32 (Packers). I am always amazed that after watching them for two years, so called experts still categorize the Jets defense under Rex as a conventional 3 - 4. The Jets play a one gap, which is as different from a traditional two gap 3 - 4 as you can get. The linemen are asked to penetrate, lots of shifting, switching back and forth to a 4 - 3, LBers have to take on more blockers, etc. Wilkerson will thrive in it just like Pouha and DeVito have.
