    Great pickup I love this guy, I dont think he should have gone in the third or fourth but having him as a UDFA is awesome

    This is a great pick up. He's a guy that I had going in my last mock in the 6th round - I didn't think he'd fall completely out of the draft.

    Warren was considered a top twenty prospect at the beginning of the year. He's got a ton of talent. Coaching will be key with in his development and we have great coaches here.

    DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH.

    Great pick up. Hopefully he makes the team and adds more depth to our already solid defensive backfield.

    Dennis Thurman, Rex Ryan, and Darrelle Revis should be able to unlock his talent.

    I think he'll be a hybrid defensive back in our scheme...he can play safety and dime.

    Signing Warren is like having another 5th or 6th round draft pick

    Before we got Antonio Cromartie, I frequently saw Donovan Warren being mocked to the Jets.

    ...in round one.

    Best cornerback corps in the league and it's not even close.

    ADDED: Going to adjust the above comment, because there is a difference.

    Best cornerback, best cornerback tandem, best cornerback trio and best total cornerback corps in the league.

    Unleash the blitzkrieg, Rex: the secondary's covered.

    Hey, Mr. E, remember when I did a mock a couple months ago, had the Jets taking Warren in the first, and some people were saying he wouldn't be available?

    This kid left Michigan as a Junior because he had been told by analysts he'd be drafted somewhere in the first 3 rounds of the draft. Sucks for him money-wise. Hopefully this lights a fire under his ass to earn a big payday someday.

    Donovan Warren has had a rough offseason. He ran a 4.59 second 40 yard dash at February's NFL Combine. He has always had outstanding technique, but this performance has raised questions about his speed. Warren hoped to put on a better show at his Pro Day in Ann Arbor, but managed to run an even slower 4.62 40 yard dash. The newly raised questions about his speed will likely knock him into the late second or early third round, where he would be a steal for some team.

    Unless his speed improves, he is toast.Better suited to safety?
