    I just came from One Jets Drive with a set of binoculars, can confirm these are their top 5

    1. Bradley Chubb
    2. Minkah Fitzpatrick
    3. Denzel Ward
    4. Derwin James
    5. Roquan Smith

    I'm salivating at a Cousins/Barkley/Robinson off-season, but we are Jets fans and we can't have nice things.

    Qbs never wind up dominating top picks like people predict. just relax. those 3 aren't sure bets by any means either

    I'm thinking getting the 3rd pic would be best to rest assured we have some control of who is our new QB rather than sit and wait.
    Thing is....someone will drop. There is 4 quality QBs. Increases the chance of someone unexpected to fall to us 10 fold. Question is who will that unlucky QB be. I'm guessing Mayfield will be there at 6...he has all the talent but he is brash and with the other 3 QBs having prototypical size its definitely possible. Could be Rosen since he seems to rub alot of people the wrong way.

  5. This is the type of offense I think Bates will be looking to run if a Shanahan offense is the goal. I think in Allen's case you target Power forwards on the outside w. large catching radius to box defenders out as well as go over the top. This would optimize Allen's best skills & would also compliment a solid running game.Removes a little bit of the accuracy component in the process. He's still going to have to make throws in the pocket & his accuracy will need to improve within that. But if he's making plays w. his feet and/or downfield with his arm that can absolutely be a successful formula.

    With the Bills looking to trade up, the Jets should probably be speaking with the Giants & Colts asap. It would be kind of funny if the Bills traded with Denver and then the Jets leapfrogged them to the #3.

    THREE MORE DAYS, FELLAS!!!

    Be Proactive..move up and get your guy ..be like Phil and KC..no qualms just action

    Forget guessing who will or won't be at 6...that's dangerous

    I have to think the Colts are dealing #3.

    Why would they stay. Especially if Barkley is gone.

    I agree. That is the right mentality.

    Agreed. If Barkley is gone then the Colts really have no reason to stay. They need help at too many positions. The temptation to move back will be enormous.

    I agree, unless they REALLY want Chubb, but that team needs more help, than just him. It's completely worth the value for them to move down, teams will be competing and overpaying them in compensation. At least the Jets have the ammo to outbid the Bills, but will they? That's the one thing that worries me.

    Bills just improved their position yet again. They traded LT Cordy Glenn to the Bengals and swapped 1st round picks a well as 5th & 6th round. Bills now have #12 and #22 as well as 2 picks each in the 2nd and 3rd. They will be moving up, just a question of how high. Should be very easy for them to move up to #3 now.

    I agree...unless they want a guy like Lamar Jackson at 12. We can only hope.

    All this speculation means nothing if jets sign a qb. And why does everyone think it’s just cousins? They might like foles or Keemun or teddy bridge water. If the jets get cousins let them trade with bills let them leap frog up. To our spot. 12 to 6 we take a 2nd thisnyr s third next

    I will say I have to admire the bills and Browns aggressiveness. It shows they are looking to get out of the shitter asap. Lol. Well I guess the bills made the playoffs last year but with the moves they are making it definitely seems like they want to make changes.

    Okay, now I'm officially on board with trading to the 2 or 3 right now.

    With all the ammo the Bills have, its pretty much a foregone conclusion that they're gearing up to trade up into the top 5. Unless we sign Cousins, Jets are going to have to jump up to secure a spot
