Got the latest issue and here's what they have Jets doing: Rd1. Darren McFadden RB Arkansas Rd2. Cliff Avril OLB Purdue Rd4. John David Booty QB USC Rd4. Harry Douglas WR Louisville Rd6. Rodrick Johnson ILB Oklahoma State Rd7. Joe Jon Finley TE Oklahoma This has us taking Avril over Lofton, which I would not do.
if we draft a Joe John and John David in the same drafty i'll shoot myself. This is a truly terrible mock
Dont like that mock at all Id like to see who they have everyone taking. Im not familiar with that magazine or whatever it is.
Yeah, they have this shit fucked up so I'll take it all with a grain of salt. Check out their top 10. Miami- Chris Long St Louis- Vernon Gholston Atlanta- Jake Long Oakland- Ryan Clady KC- Glenn Dorsey NYJ- Darren McFadden NE- Mike Jenkins Baltimore- Matt Ryan Cincinnati- Sedrick Ellis NO- Leodis McKelvin St. Louis and Oakland make no sense at all.
I really like the Booty pick. If we wait that long to draft a QB he has tremendous upside. He sat forever at USC but has all the tools. Other than the fact that he's not a fag he reminds me alot of Brady.
A lot of mocks have Gholston going to the Rams...the only strange pick is Oakland's...all the others make perfect sense. Edit: Don't forget...the Rams are rumored to be switching to a hybird 3-4, which he would be perfect for, as he projects at both OLB and DE.
I think we def need a DE prospect to work on in this years draft otherwise it becomes more of a need next year
John Fitzgerald Booty (born October 9, 1965 in Deberry, Texas) was an American football defensive back in the National Football League for the New York Jets, the Philadelphia Eagles, the Phoenix Cardinals, the New York Giants, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He played college football at Texas Christian University. Courtesy of Wiki
I like that pick too. 4th round is a good time to strike on a QB. This leaves Clemens one more year to show something. If not, open competition next year as well. I would go Lofton over Avril in round 2, and grab DE from Hampton as my other 4th round pick. McFadden, Lofton, Booty, DE from Hampton (forgot name) would be good 4 picks.
I think they have some hope for CJ Mosley as a DE for next year. he played pretty well at the end of last season. Great size, and is very quick for a big man. Loved him coming out of college, he blew up to about 340, but is back down to about 315. Doesn't have classic height for a DE 6'2", but I think he can be a good DE. Interested in watching him in camp.
Was not aware they were making that hybrid 3-4 switch. Bastards!! I would think Jake Long would make more sense here since their line was just atrocious last year and lines him up to replace aging Orlando Pace. They also need to protect their investment in Bulger whom I believe got a new contract in '07 for 6 years.
If somehow we can get Flacco in the 2nd round...i'd be happIER. But, with the Dolphins, Atlanta and Chiefs picking ahead of us and all them looking for a future QB, it's gonna be tough.
