    Horrible pick. I can understand the rationale behind other ones, but with Cam Thomas on the board, Norwood on the board, Sapp...THOMAS...WTF.

    I'm definitely had no problem with our first pick, LOVE wilson. But we need depth at DL, it not really an opinion, its a fact. Our DL is old and we need to get younger.

    The only thing I can think is that DeVito and Pouha are really impressing coaches. They did both played really well last year.

    Also keep in mind this defense that led us to the AFCCG will be adding a player named Kris Jenkins next season.

    Rex has confidence in these guys and who knows maybe Ghost has shown some signs after being moved to DE. Granted that's some very wishful thinking.

    This pick baffles me. If we were gonna take a RB I was hoping they would take Anthony Dixon.

    Sanchez handing off to McKnight once again. Interesting.

    You need to watch some more videos.

    McKnight is more versatile and more talented that Leon Washington was coming out of college. This pick can turn out to be a good one.

    I bet Leon isn't ready to start the preseason this year.

    I can just hear Francesa on this one. He's going to knock our draft out of the universe.

    "McNight? Mc Night? The kid was awful in college... couldn't stay healthy. How do the Jets expect him be in the NFL? Did they think they're replacing Leon? Then they give up two picks and take themselves out of the draft? I mean, come on. Terry Bradway must have scouted this guy."

    Not only that, but Pouha, who has shown he can be a quality contributor can slide over to DE on a lot of plays.

    Okay, please get them here for me... I'm not sure how to post them. I want to watch them again. I hope you can prove me wrong, but I wasn't impressed with the January '09 video. Let's all take a look.

    This defense that led us to the AFCCG had a player named Kris Jenkins last season...and before he went down we were getting killed with outside runs. He is in his 30s and just had his second knee surgery. They guy is not going to be a 3rd NT this year....unless we want to lose him again. it will be a Jenkins/Pouha combo...and Pouha is in his 30s too. We need young depth at the position....way more than we need to trade up for another RB who doesn't have off the charts ability in any particular area.

    I am starting to think it might have been a "Don't let the Pats get him" pick....

    All you guys bashing this pick need to calm down. Sure it would be nice to take someone on the D-Line, but all these names you throw out there...thomas, sapp, etc...THEY STILL DIDNT get picked!

    You guys aren't scouts...(maybe except for Mr E) leave it to the Jets

    In rex and tanny we trust

    The one I looked at was from January '09... not this one. He does look better in this one.
