Note: This is not a draft projection or mock draft, it's an overall ranking ... knowing full well that certain players will never be drafted in the TOP 20 if they do not play a premium position {i.e. C/OG}, while other may rise if they do play a premium position ... but regardless of position and draft projections, this is my overall TOP 20
01. RB Reggie Bush
02. DE Mario Williams
03. QB Jay Cutler
04. OT Brick Ferguson
05. LB AJ Hawk
06. RB LenDale White
07. QB Matt Leinart
08. DT Haloti Ngata
09. DE Tamba Hali
10. DB Michael Huff
11. LB Chad Greenway
12. RB DeAngelo Williams
13. DB Jimmy Williams
14. C/G Nick Mangold
15. OG Max Jean Gillies
16. OT Winston Justice
17. OT Marcus McNeill
18. TE Vernon Davis
19. TE Leonard Pope
20. DT Gabe Watson
Honorable Mention: DT Brodrick Bunkley
The Good news for the Jets in RD 2 {#35 Overall}, there's a good chance they can steal a TOP 20 talent in that spot because even the best C's and OG's tend to slide, even into RD 2, and I have two in my TOP 20 Overall {Mangold and Gillies}
And if that doesn't happen, I can definitely see the Jets having a crack at an outstanding OLB at 35 Overall ... someone like Bobby Carpenter, Thomas Howard, or D'Qwell Jackson {whom I believe can just as easily play OLB as ILB because he has the skills, and he'd make a good fit for Mangini's fluctuating 4-3/3-4 because he can do both, OLB in the 4-3 and ILB in the 3-4}
