Olsen, Coles, Cotch, Craig Davis >>>>>>>>>> Baker+Coles+Cotch+ 1st rd wr(Meachem, Bowe, Jarrett, Rice)
Jarrett isnt a first rounder and Rice is barely one also. To me there are only 3 or 4 players who maybe around that I would take over Olsen. Everyone knocks this kid like if we took him he would hurt the team more then help it. To me its Spencer, Blalock, Houston then Olsen. I really like Dwayne Bowe also.
We will see on Saturday......all I know is that Rice or Jarrett are much better players than Olsen and if we are going offensive weapon, it's gotta be wideout and not Olsen I prefer Defense (Harrell or Spencer) myself though
Jarrett and Rice have question marks themselves. Time speed for both of them are iffy. Like I said before, I dont want the Jets to take Olsen with the first pick, but have no problem if we did take him with the first pick. He is great value, just because you may think he does not fit with our situation does not you should make idiotic comments like he is not any good.
I don't want the Jets to take an offensive player period......that said, if we go offensive weapon, we should def go WR over Greg Olsen.......Greg Olsen will help us for sure but one of these WR's offers more value and will help us out more so than Olsen IMO
How about his numbers in college were not that good! he is rated to go in the first round because of the numbers he put up in workouts! He did not do it on the field. Also, he is injury prone!
I think it's safe to say that it won't be like last year when the Jets pick. For the most part there were cheers with both of our 1st round picks. I think we can expect to hear very mixed reactions this year.
I would be happy with Olsen along with many others... Alot of you are going way over board to bash Olsen. There is a reason teams like Carolina and GB want him at 14 and 16.
nobody said anything about the history with TEs...what was mentioned several times was that we have much bigger holes to fill than at the TE position....
TE can be addressed in later rounds after some glaring holes get looked at. i know im gonna sound like a homer, but clark out of rutgers is a pretty solid TE....he can probably be had on day 2. hes like leonard in the way that hes a solid player, and a great character guy....def mangini-esque material. using a first rounder on a TE wouldnt be so bad if we had less pressing needs.
yeah, franks' production has dropped significantly, and carolina NEEDS a te....they have a solid D line. we have bigger holes to fill, and GB, even though they are eyeing olsen, thats ONLY if marshawn lynch is off the board. hes a backup pick imo. GB needs a rb first, and then (again, imo) if i were GB id try to bolster the D....they didnt lose their games by not scoring....they lost b/c they gave up points. granted, GREAT TEs are tough to find, but olsen is way more of a reach....i think someone else said this too, but all of olsens hype has come out of the combine and pro day....his on field production doesnt get him in round 1. me personally, im not a big believer in the combine. if a guy can do it on the field thats whats important. anybody can have a great combine, weve seen some iffy guys have great combine numbers and they dont end up to be HALF of what they were "projected" to be.
Olsen DID do it on the field...the only reason his numbers were average was because Miami's offense F'n blew...Give him a QB like Chad and Chad a TE like Olsen and both will thrive.
Trading down > picking Olson. I'd rather get the BAP at 38 or 39 and snag an extra pick then draft at a position thats not one of our biggest needs. Perfect scenario is moving down and still be able to get Blalock in my opinion. So much talk about CB's though. I would guess at least one will fall into our laps at 25, and I hate the idea of trading up to get one if it means packaging draft picks to do it.
