I've often sat and wondered how you people get tape on college players. Do you guys record all the games you can and rewatch them? use youtube highlights or what? (i live in N.Ireland, don't get any real college football on tv)
We are definantly trading up for him. I can just see it now, we move 1 spot in front of the Pats and take him for ourselves.
Players that visited the Jets.....Updated 4/15/10 Toby Gerhart, RB, Stanford Devin McCourty, CB, Rutgers Ryan Mathews, RB, Fresno St Corey Peters, DE/DT, Kentucky Mike Iupati, OG, Idaho Ray Fisher, CB, Indiana Patrick Robinson, CB, Florida State Terrence Cody, NT, Alabama Jared Odrick , DL, Penn St Ricky Sapp, OLB, Clemson Kevin Haslam, OT, Rutgers Mickey Shuler, TE, PSU Major Wright, S, Florida Montario Hardesty, RB, Tennessee Sean Lissemore, DT, William & Mary Daryl Washington, LB, TCU Kareem Jackson, CB, Bama Maurkice Pouncey, OG/C, Florida Steve Maneri, TE, Temple Jahvid Best, RB, Cal Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers Nate Byham, TE, Pitt Jason Worilds, OLB, Virginia Tech Kyle Wilson, CB, Boise St. Brandon Graham, DE/OLB, Michigan
We have had no WR visits. WHY? We ONLY have two pro bowl WRs on the roster and one top 15 WR. What is Tanny thinking??? Is Brandon G a 3-4 DE or a 3-4 OLB?
With the exception of Odrick there aren't any real stud players at the position. Next year is the year of the 3-4 DE.
We could probably hang on for one more year with the starters we have, but that's about it. DE may turn into a real weakness quite quickly, and we would end up being completely dependent on a rookie(s).
To name the top guys: Cameron Heyward (my favorite) Greg Romeus Adrian Clayborn Allen Bailey Marvin Austin Plus there are tons more in the mid rounds that could excel as well. But these guys are the consensus studs.
Personally I think the top 3 are all more athletic off the edge with quicker first steps and better footwork than Odrick. It wouldn't surprise me to hear though that Odrick has better intangibles than these 3 players as Odrick has proven to have incredible smarts and football IQ from what I read about his interviews. Now I'm not a huge Draftnik like WW85 or Mr.E so they would be able to go more in depth than I would. I'll let them handle the Mel Kiper Jr aspect of this process.
Is this list of guys who have visited the Jets in Florham Park and who have met with the Jets in private off site somewhere. Or is it just guys who have come to Florham park Also awesome with the Brandon Graham
Now that everything's about to go down, these are the players that had PRIVATE workouts with the New York Jets: Nate Byham, tight end, Pittsburgh. Ray Fisher, cornerback, Indiana. Toby Gerhart, running back, Stanford. Mike Iupati, offensive guard, Idaho. Ryan Mathews, running back, Fresno State. Maurkice Pouncey, center, Florida. Corey Wootton, defensive end, Northwestern. It looks like we're definitely interested in power backs and guards. Ray Fisher will more than likely be a UDFA. He's a wide receiver that converted to cornerback in his senior year. Fisher suffered a serious knee injury last season as well. After looking over everything I could find on this guy, he's looks like he was one of the best special teamers in the country. He was an honorable mention All-American as a return man.
