    What is wrong with a safety in round 1? Before free agency started I thought a safety in round 1 made some sense. Eric Ebron might not last until pick 18 and this is a deep draft for WRs. The Jets can take a WR in rounds 2 and 3. They can get a big target in round 2 and take a smaller receiver in round 3 such as Ellington, Archer or John Brown.

    At the rate the NFL is going in terms of playoff expansion they might even do both in the same year. :)

    This would be par for the course in the Seahawks build. They went 7-9, 7-9, 11-5, 13-3 under Carroll.

    From what I read they're still very interested in DRC

    Yea but We haven't drafted offensse in first round since Sanchez and people would go nuts if we didn't take Ebron if he was there at 18

    Just take a look at the calender and tell me what the date is again? and then tell me what team historically has won the Super Bowl on this date.

    If we sign DRC it would make me feel a whole lot better.
    We are all expecting Milliner to really take it to the next level next season but the truth is we still don't know what the kids going to do.
    This is a pretty scary proposition to me.

    We also need to figure that once guys start getting cut in TC we'll most likely add talent there.

    Ebron is one of those prospects where I look at him and if I squint hard I can see either Vernon Davis or Johnny Mitchell. He's not any kind of guarantee to be a star player and at the position you must draft a star if you want to break even on a 1st round pick.

    I'd be much happier with one of the other guys in the 2nd or even Fiedorowicz in the 4th than I would be with Ebron at 18. With Fiedorowicz you at least have an in-line TE to allow you to move Cumberland to his more natural weak-side position.

    Not sarcastic at all. The Jets talent base was seen as last place material last year. The odds they get up to playoffs this year would seem low. I think they have some play in them but to get to the playoffs you have to see Geno making the step forward this year and the crystal ball is still cloudy in that regards.

    The Seahawks made the playoffs when they found Wilson.

    So sitting on a pile of cap space while holes open up on our team and our competition around us gets better despite having less cap space to work with does benefit us somehow?

    Don't get me wrong: I am not one of those "sign every free agent ever" kind of guys but the reality is we have holes that we are better served filling through free agency than the draft. CB being right near the top. There were lots of free agent CBs available and all the good ones are being snapped up so now we either play a third or fourth tier CB or we draft one again which doesn't mean they will he good and prevents us from using that pick on one of our many areas of need,

    In my post I implied I want the Jets to draft Ebron at 18 and also that I do not think the Jets will pass on Ebron if he is available at 18.
