Am I still crazy to think that Jonathan Martin will be available when we pick. He seems to have dropped a bit off on peoples boards, I really hope he is available
More and more I keep wanting Martin on this team, with the O we run he is Ray Rice all over again I think.
I wouldn't take a kid from Boise. They are system players who play one legit game a year, always opening night. The Broncos have been winning double digits for more than half a decade with their most notable NFL players being Kyle "90th best CB" Wilson. It's a smoke and mirrors team. It is no coincidence that teams who run pro style schemes have the most NFL players (Miami, USC, OSU, LSU)....Ever notice how TCU and VaTech always have tremendous defenses but between them I can name one legit NFL defender (Deangelo Hall). Talent can be found anywhere, but often schools who use scheme, trickery, and favorable scheduling to win usually end up with players who get drafted way too high. Jerry Hughes comes to mind. While I do think a kid can bust or boom from any school, patterns of NFL success (Miami) versus busting (Florida) are legit and should be factored in. And if we got DeCastro Id be thrilled.
I'm up early for the first time in who knows when to make myself breakfasts and watch this combine. I'm excited, let me tell you hahhaha.
Its Free on NFL Network, two live cameras. Its awesome. Last year when I got NFL network I had three combine screens up Watching offensive lineman run 40s is painful haha
Wow, Cordy Glenn has one heavy ass! Wonder how he'll play after NFL conditioning. PS Tom Compton is one athletic guy at 6-5 312lbs... played @ South Dakota, anyone know anything about him?
the reporters just said that Decastro was used as the example on almost every drill as the right way to do it as he has been so well coached.
Probably not. More likely to go early in the 2nd. But he fits the Sparano type and could start from Day 1 IMO.
Are they projecting Sanders as a left? If he can play both sides and made it to the 3rd I think he'd be worth the pick.
Sizes of a few DL that the Jets may be interested in: Curry 6'3 266 Ingram 6'1 264 Johnson 6'3 268 Massaquoi 6'2 264 Merciless 6'4 261 Perry 6'3 271 and LBs Taze 6'1 248 Hightower 6'2 265 Irvin 6'3 245 R. Lewis 6'2 253 Upshaw 6'2 272
Ingram lost some weight from the Senior Bowl, probably looking to improve his 40. I cant wait to see what his 10 yard split and 40 are... Also, his arms arent THAT short, I mean they are only a half inch shorter than Upshaw’s and an inch shorter than Curry’s. The kid can straight up play, and if his arms are about an inch shorter than the average, I wouldnt really hold it against him. I think that the most notable thing is that they are a lot of players that can fit in a 3-4 due to height and weight that can go in the 1st 3 rounds. This is the group I am most excited to see
