    I've never seen Lynch play so I have no idea.

    I take him, some think 2 or 3 years from now he will be considered the best qb in this draft..but i don't think he is ready to start this year.

    Hate to be that guy but it really depends on who else is available. I'm not taking him over Treadwell or a top end rusher, but maybe if the board is thin.

    No way I take Lynch over Treadwell. Treadwell is a top 10 talent who is slipping in the mocks because of the stupid combine and teams worried about meaningless 40 times. This is Alshon Jeffery all over again.

    If Treadwell isn't there I wouldn't mind taking Lynch. The Jets would be a good spot for him if we retain Fitz or sign Hoyer. He needs to sit for a year at minimum.

    Treadwell reminds me of Marshall, he won't run by you but he'll dominate you

    Marshall is already feeling pretty cushy in his analyst job. I think I've heard him say he would retire when his contract expires after the 2017 season. You can't count on Devin Smith panning out, which would leave us with only Decker.

    Wide receiver is absolutely a need, and Treadwell would be a home run at 20. He's no.1 on my wish list.

    I will throw up if we trade multiple assets to move into the top 10 for him like it's been suggested we could. I could stomach him at 20 but I'd rather take BPA.

    Yeah its now what i hope what happens but i think since he's a QB he will be drafted way before he's supposed to maybe in the top 10. Physically he's the best QB but the transition will be tough but if he's legit given the opportunity to sit for a 1 year plus he might be the best QB when its all said in done. If we draft him we kind of have to give in a little to Fitz because at that point I'm paying him not to see Lynch for 2 years.

    Yes, terrific raw talent to develop alongside Petty.

    We know at 20 it will be BPA and he might be it

    He or any of the q.b.s. in this draft.are worth a first round pick.

    I would be surprised if they took him.

    I think our short list is Floyd, Ragland, Lee, Apple, Jackson III, Lawson, Treadwell, Doctson, Henry.

    One of those guys will be a Jet IMO

    This is a pretty good list except for Henry. I'd be shocked if the Jets drafted him at 20.

    As much as I'd love a stud LB I can't help but be seduced by Lynch's skillset so YES!

    I think another question would be , if Lynch falls out of the top 10 do you make a move to jump up and get him.

    Pick 20 is higher than Lynch's Wonderlic score.

    Lynch's throwing motion worries me. I haven't seen a ton of full game action of him, but from what I see, he has long arms, cock the ball down to his side when he's ready to throw and has a low long throwing motion. I just can't see him being an effective short ball throwing at least not anytime soon as it will lead to a lot of telegraphed interceptions. He throws a great deep ball, and seems like he'd be most effective if he was used like Flacco/Roethlisberger were early in their career with a lot of deep throws to loosen a defense up.

    If Treadwell, Hargreaves III or Lee is there you pass and draft one of those three. If they are gone it depends on the tackles available. If all the good tackles are gone, screw it why not
