This pick was very, very good value and with his talent our cornerback group is a force to be reckoned with.
Dyson and Revis starting, Miller and D. Coleman in the next 2 spots - very good. Yea it's not our biggest need, but Revis should be a top 12-15 pick and to slide to us is a steal.

Revis is a horrible pick. Not only is he overrated because of his quickness, but we just saw a dominating performance from Hank Poteat for christ sake. We don't need a corner, we have a system that needs roleplaying system corners. It's all about the safeties. Belichick's has had the most injury ravaged secondaries in recent memory and they could still stop the pass during their Superbowl runs, because of front seven pressure and the amount of ground their safeties covered.
In an age where there are no more shutdown corners, it makes no more sense to take them in the first round. It's all about scheming at corner, and all you need is a corner who fits your teams strengths.

eeeew, you must know nothing about the draft....
Not only did you question my pick right away after I made it but now you question on how much I know the draft? Are you kidding me? Heres why Revis is a Jet(Even though theres no way in hell he falls into our laps unless we somehow drop our final two games and Revis has a decent combine)
1. You really think this Jet franchise wants to ship in the big bucks on Asaunte Samuel and Nate Clemens? They will be awfully pricey and Tennebaum/Mangini will try to dodge paying these guys the money they will command in a CB hungry free agent market.
2. If Drew Coleman, Hank Poteat or David Barrett is our 2nd CB when we face against a tough schedule, we will get burned big time by the teams in the AFC North and NFC East. That simple.
3. I know you were probably thinking when I made this pick that ''Oh man this is just a Justin Miller clone, you know can return kicks but cant cover'', but the dude is not only athletic but has great cover skills. 2nd best in the draft behind Leon Hall. Him aside someone like Kerry Rhodes will help one another IMO.
4. The only real other choice whod help us around this area would be Lemarr Woodley, but theres a chance he can fall to our early 2nd round pick(Washington's) so I went with talent over need.
Hope that helps. :up:

You realize what Hank Poteat is right? Hes a JOURNEYMAN CB. Revis isnt overrated, he doesnt even get that much talk in this draft. Dunta Robinson, Pac Man Jones and DeAngelo Hall were picked in the 1st round and have been very good for their teams respectively.
Trust me, the CB market for free agency will be intense with the likes of Clemens and Samuel leading the way. And we have faced a very light schedule this year, the only top QBs weve faced that pass alot are Peyton Manning and I guess Tom Brady. We get the likes of McNabb, Eli Manning(Inconsistent but a cannon for a arm), Romo who can launch some bombs, Tom Brady, possibility of Daunte Culpepper if he comes back, Jay Cutler/Trent Green and Carson Palmer next season. Poteat wont last, nor will any of our CBs outside of Dyson.
My pick was FAR from a horrible pick.

Levi Brown has the tools to be good, but hes a project and has only played RT for I believe 1 year. If your willing to wait a good 2-3 years for him to finally show promise at RT, then Levi is fine by me. But I dont think thats gonna cut it with big namers 1st rders Mangold and Fergerson on the same line as him and I know this site will kill the guy, since we torched D'Brickashaw when he got burned by Schobel two weeks ago.
Maybe I shouldent do the Jets pick next time, its the pick that people love/hate you for. Then again its a Jets site. :grin:

REvis is strongly overrated..... He shouldnt pick higher that the 25th pick, he is in no way a elite corner in this draft, so drafting him would be a reach, didnt Rutgers and Teel shred him apart..... Weve got some solid CBs we just need some roleplayers, we have the safeties, we could use one, but not too early, we can wait...

The pick should either be OL/DL, unless a top 10 player drops. And considering OL is the most important part of the football team, I don't think it can ever be "too much". If it was my team, I'd pick OL or DL in the first round every year, unless I had a top pick and a need for a QB.

That's retarded. We can never have enough quality LBs for our scheme and certainly could use a CB. Now Revis may or may not be the answer, I'm not going to speculate, but we could definately use an upgrade over what we have.
As far as the offense goes, we could do well with another TE who can catch or at least a big WR for the red zone to compliment our mighty mites. Running back could certainly help our team as well.
Our offensive line is far from the worst part of our team and while I do not promote picking strictly based on need,
(a) there are good players available at other positions and
(b) strictly economically speaking, it would be a waste because you don't want to commit too much cap space to one position and
(c) right tackle is a position that can historically be filled with capable players later in the draft for much cheaper.
Unless your QB is a lefty there is no reason to take a Right Tackle in the first round.

I don't think it's retarded, it's just what I would prefer to do. Belichick has done it with his first pick in 5 of 7 drafts, and it's worked out okay for him. I'd certainly rather take OL or DL in the first round over CB (a position that is the last thing the Jets should pick in the 1st round, given that Mangini is great at developing CBs, and safeties are far more important in this defense).

Yep, you basically proved my point right there, my friend. Hank Poteat is a journeyman cornerback and he allowed one catch for twelve yards vs. Minnesota, with several breakups down the field, and I only saw one catch against him in man coverage vs. Miami.
DeAngelo Hall has done nothing but suck this year, and all teams do is pick on Robinson. Pac-Man Jones has been good, I will give you that, but remember that he was a top ten pick.
Fact is, we don't need a corner. All you need in a Mangini defense is dominating safeties. Both Rhodes and Coleman can tackle, and Rhodes has proven to be a playmaker. Watch some games on the Patriots from the past two years and you will realize Randall Gay started in the Superbowl. Corner in this system is a zone position, and it all relies on the front seven's pressure on the quarterback, and the safeties over the top. Nothing falls on the back of a corner, other then keeping receivers in front of you. 10P10 struck it on the head, when he said offensive line is the most important position on the field. Not only would I be happy, I'd be ecstatic if Justin Blalock or Levi Brown were added, to give this line a more nasty demeanor.

We were going to draft a CB I think with the Schlegal pick in 2006, but we traded back a few spots and lost out, I think to Denver. I can't remember the CB's name, but our management had already sounded him out about coming to the Jets before someone else got him. He was injured for most of this season.
I think if we do pick a CB in the draft it won't be in the first or second rounds.

The New York Jets select CB Darrelle Revis out of Pittsburgh.

Not only did you question my pick right away after I made it but now you question on how much I know the draft? Are you kidding me? Heres why Revis is a Jet(Even though theres no way in hell he falls into our laps unless we somehow drop our final two games and Revis has a decent combine)
1. You really think this Jet franchise wants to ship in the big bucks on Asaunte Samuel and Nate Clemens? They will be awfully pricey and Tennebaum/Mangini will try to dodge paying these guys the money they will command in a CB hungry free agent market.
2. If Drew Coleman, Hank Poteat or David Barrett is our 2nd CB when we face against a tough schedule, we will get burned big time by the teams in the AFC North and NFC East. That simple.
3. I know you were probably thinking when I made this pick that ''Oh man this is just a Justin Miller clone, you know can return kicks but cant cover'', but the dude is not only athletic but has great cover skills. 2nd best in the draft behind Leon Hall. Him aside someone like Kerry Rhodes will help one another IMO.
4. The only real other choice whod help us around this area would be Lemarr Woodley, but theres a chance he can fall to our early 2nd round pick(Washington's) so I went with talent over need.
Hope that helps. :up:
I don't really fault anyone in this thread for poking at the Revis pick. I do give insane props to BakerMaker, however, for identifying the BPA before the 2006 season was even over.

+24. I mean, I wanted Revis leading up to the draft, thought Aaron Ross was more likely, and was thrilled when we got him. The best part? Talking to a Raiders fan friend of mine who said Russell was a surefire hall of famer and that we didn't stand a chance at Revis.
As far as calling Revis in DECEMBER? No freaking way. BakerMaker has my ultimate and lifelong respect.

Everything BakerMaker said was right, even the part about Woodley.

HAHAHA sorry to bump this, but WOW. That is rich.
A shame, since JV was a good poster.

In JV's defense, I didn't see too many people predicting that Revis was going to be the greatest cornerback in the history of the universe prior to the 2007 draft.
BakerMaker gets huge props, though.

You hit some, you miss some.. Really funny looking back on it.
I like when people bump threads like this one. I hate when people bump threads with zero purpose. I love looking back at things like this. JV's logic wasn't incorrect, though Hank Poteat and dominating never belong in the same sentence.

BakerMaker is a god amongst men in this thread.
Just goes to show you how the draft and post-draft grades don't mean shit til the players hit the field for a couple of years.
