New England: Beau Bell ILB 126. NY Giants: Chad Rinehart OG JETS DRAFT (Remainder) 6. Curtis Johnson OLB/DE 7. Nick Hayden DE Well let me hear some feedback and opinions. And not just on the Jets draft but the entire thing. Thanks for the read.
My Top 10 Mock right now would have to go... 1. Miami - Chris Long 2. St. Louis - Jake Long 3. Atlanta - Glenn Dorsey 4. Oakland - Vernon Gholston 5. Kansas City - Ryan Clady 6. New York Jets - Darren McFadden 7. New England - Leodis McKelvin 8. Baltimore - Matty Ryan 9. Cincinatti - Sedrick Ellis 10. New Orleans - Kentwan Balmer
I think the mock is pretty solid overall. I don't agree with the 4th round pick on McClain though. I think Zuttah would be the better option, or if you wanted to go ILB I like Beau Bell a little more.
I'd rather have Avril or Lofton in the 2nd.. i feel they are the BPAs... Avril as a Jet for some reason seems like he'd look awesome in green... just a gut feeling.
PA, I used this board to submit your pick for Tampa Bay in the mock draft 1. You had TB taking a Corner in RD 2 2. The highest rated available Corner on your board was Patrick Lee So I took Patrick Lee for the Bucs in RD 2
If Brian Brohm lasts until pick #47 it will be b/c he got hit by a car on the morning of draft day...I would not be entirely shocked if he goes to either Carolina or Chicago in the middle of the 1st...
meh, i feel Reggie Smith is one of thos cb safety tweeners. I dont like him too much. But if he can be a solid safety to pair with Rhodes i would take him
I thought I had him going in the 4th somewhere, but apparently I don't. This year, the supply for RBs exceeds the demand causing a surplus. I wouldn't be surprised if RBs fell in the draft this year... Wow, you looked through the whole thing and that's all you have to say... Are you a Texas fan?
Yeah that's something they need to build. Youth is something rare in that squad of LBs, which can't be effective for much longer.
I think Cherlius will go before Carl Nicks, especially with his off the field trouble I don't think Nicks is a 1st rounder. I know Arizona lost Bryant Johnson but I think 2nd round may be too early for them to go WR. I'd rather the Jets go Kendall Langford in the 4th if he's available but I do like Jerome Simpson as a sleeper prospect. I'm not sure about Mayo with the Giants. I think Connor would be a better fit for their scheme. That's all nitpicking thoug, overall really good job.
Charles will be taken in round two. It was a pretty big omission. Also after the horrible combine he had Otah will not leapfrog Williams at OT. Sam Baker and Anthony Collins should be rated a lot higher. Jack Ikegwuonu was one of my favorite players before he blew out his knee. If he gets picked in round six or seven he should feel fortunate.
If that mock goes that way i pick McFadden and Manningham I like Reggie Smith as he can play either corner or safety but i wouldnt pick him over Manningham
What is it that you are looking for? A big debate over Nehemiah Warwick going ahead of Michael Grant? Someone just made a good point about Jamaal Charles not being picked, and you cried about how that's the only thing he noticed. Someone else mentioned Brohm going so late, and you ignored it. So should we only give you feedback if it strokes your ego? Nobody cares about a 4 round mock made up by some guy on a jets message board. I wouldn't care if ESPN made one because it is going to be so far off that it doesn't matter. If you got 5 picks right from rounds 3-4 It would be a blessing from god. You want to do round 1, or all of the Jets picks, fine. Don't expect everyone to give you a pat on the back for the 9 hours you just wasted making up a BS mock draft.
I'm not looking for complements or "pats on the back". I use the criticism in the next mock and consider what other people say. That's really about it... 9 hours for this?? I worked on this in bits and pieces over a week+ span and in total, put in about an hour and a half or so... Jamaal Charles is one. I think he warrants a third round pick and I even would have said I had him going, but I guess I just missed him. Nothing for me to say about Brohm going late really. IMO, Joe Flacco will go ahead of him. Just my opinion and the people that talked about Brohm going earlier stated theirs... I could see Brohm going earlier, but I think Flacco might have more upside. I'm sure I won't have many picks correct, but I make these just to contribute something and for one once in a while, and that's it. Hey, most people don't care, but there's plenty that read it. And if you don't care about this mock, that's fine. It doesn't make the slightest difference in my day. Hey, I'm not looking for national attention for a mock I did.
I just don't think it's cool that the guy is asking for more feedback--meanwhile, he criticized the guy who made a great point about Charles, and ignored another great point about Brohm. Now tonight, 3 other guys made comments, and they get ignored as well-- yet he still has time to respond to me. So no, I don't think this mock draft warrants any feedback. Just like most guys on here, he's not looking for a debate- just that pat on the back. PS: Last year when he did this, he had one pick correct out of the entire top 10-- why would anyone take his 4 round mock seriously?
if Adrian Arrington is still available and we take a WR thats not him in the 4th, as your mock provides, I will break something. A lot of Michigan fans, such as myself, would tell you that we're not sure who's better Manningham or AA. Yes I suppose MM has more upside because he has the speed and just an innate ability to get deep. But AA is bigger, much more physical, goes over the middle (which MM does not), has much better hands, and is probably a better guy. I'm no scout but AA seems like a 3rd round pick to me.
