might really have been BPA at that pick waaaay down in the 6th. Wild card- you never know how a guy like this could develop. With Vick and Geno all on the roster- think its a very good developmental situation for a guy like that.
and one of my favorite players went 5 picks later to the Ravens. Campanaro. gonna be a good player in the NFL. but hey, we got another backup qb that cant throw for shit, cool.
He's a third string guy and as much as I dislike him he's better than Matt Simms. Its always a good pick when you find a guy in the late part of the 6th round that will make the team.
I think late and with this amount of picks it's almost throwing shit against the wall and see what sticks...
It's a 6th round pick, Jets probably don't think all that highly of Simms. They'll battle it out for the number 3 QB spot during the PS. What's the problem?
I think they look at this like it provides competition for Matt Simms at QB3, and whoever wins, wins. Maybe he spends a year on the practice squad, moves up to # 2/3 QB when Vick leaves after a year, and you have the versatility of him being a physical player who can do some things. Maybe that turns into a WR or something. Here's a question. In 2013, we took William Campbell, DT, Michigan, in the 6th round. Did someone jump on TGG to bitch about that then, since we'd just taken Sheldon Richardson too? Probably, because people are idiots. Sixth round of 2000 draft, Patriots took Tom Brady. They didn't think he'd be a hall of famer, they just took a chance. They didn't know what they had, he was just a tall kid with a big arm who played at Michigan. 14 years later? Best player in franchise history. So, 6th round, you take a shot. Most times it doesn't work out. Sometimes, it does. Get over yourselves.
Woody luvs Rex + Idzik has to deal with it = Taj Boyd. Rex can be so agressive on D but on O ,Heavy running Wildcat, short passes .Conservative on O . I hate the wildcat and everything it stands for.
