    You don't know jack shit what they could or couldn't have done. As I said before, they obviously didn't want just any safety. They liked Maye and wanted him.

    I hope we do. This class is crazy good. There should still be first round talent at the position still in the third.

    What would be so horrible about taking a shot at Kizer? I guess McCown is fine the jets are only his 21st team

    Meh... Not what I was expecting, but if you have a chance to fix that horrid secondary in one fell swoop - do it. I'm tired of watching wide open receivers prance into the endzone.
    Now I hope we go offense, offense, offense.

    He doesn't have the best backpedal so I feel like he will be playing further from the line of scrimmage as to not get beat... You may be right though haven't seen a lot of him. Will have to wait and hear how Bowles would like to use them.

    why do people say this when it isn't true? we let up 1 more then Seattle!
    the raiders, giants, niners, packers, and bucs were the 50 worst. we were middle of the pack. jeez people need to watch more then just the jets games to get a reality check

    Ummmm... He could've easily been a first rounder in any other draft. The safety and CB position are so deep, it's the only reason these kids are even in the second and third rounds.

    Matter of opinion. Clearly the Jets thought otherwise.

    Pryor was clearly over matched

    I have read many of your recent posts. You are the last one to be deciding who knows shit. Our streak of second round futility continues.

    They are so interchangeable and fit his scheme well .. which also brings up the point on "is Bowles really on shaky ground?"

    Haha. I would have preferred Cook, but I remember just how pissed I was last year after seeing receivers and tight ends having a field day week in and week out. We weren't doing shit next year anyway, so if they could get this defense back to Top 5, I am all for it.

    That was going to happen regardless. To think otherwise, isn't realistic. Didn't matter what we did in this draft. Nothing was going to change that for this upcoming year.

    The Jets were never taking Mixon or Cook. Anyone who thought they would hasn't been paying attention to what Mac has been doing and saying.

    During the season we were complaining how bad our secondary was. Got beat deep repeatedly. Now they are trying to fix the huge problem and half of you are bitching about it lol. It sucks enough being a jets fans with them not winning but listeneing to other jet fans bitching constantly makes it that much worse.

    No, he's right. Mayes can play single deep

    It would appear not. I agree, as long as he wasnt as incompetent as he was last season, he deserves time. He has great football knowledge, but can be translated it in coaching?

    It is mind boggling. And don't get me wrong, wouldn't have minded an offensive pick, but at the same time I am not upset at this at all.
