2013 Picks You Would Have Made

Well, your rule number 4 is getting ignored. Why? Because I can't really argue against most of our picks. In the first two rounds we drafted high end talents at good value. Rounds three and five we got players along an area of need in both starters and depth in the oline.

The only pick I question was Campbell in the sixth. I would take Baccari Rambo at the point. THe staff must be real high on Bush or Allen to let him pass by.

In the 7th we get a guy that player HBack and Full Back. Not a sexy pick but someone to compete with Hillard and play special teams if he sticks.

Ivory for the 4th? Sure I would have loved it to be a lower pick, but in the end we got a good hard running back with NFL experience that should start for us for the next few years.

In Idziks post round one presser he stated that he drafts talent first during the first couple rounds and looks to fill gaps in depth with the later rounds. This is exactly what happened. I can't argue the philosophy or the outcome right now. Some of my favorite players were gone before we picked and I don't fault the man for not trading up and costing us depth. That was part of tannys downfall.

 

I posted my picks on another site before the draft and all of my picks were there for the taking in the draft:

#9 G Chance Warmack
#13 TE Tyler Eifert
#39 WR Robert Woods
#72 QB Landry Jones (Bill Polian's best QB in the draft)

All addresed the most glaring deficiencies of the Jets OL, TE, WR and QB.

 

I would have liked Jarvis Jones at 13 because we desperately need that edge rusher. But this is one of those times I trust Rex Ryan to make the right pick, so if he thinks Sheldon Richardson will be a better player, then I'm good with the pick.

Was hoping for Rambo in the 6th. Campbell is being projected as a guard now, and I don't think we needed three guards in a row. But it's the 6th round so I can't be too upset.

I would have liked Da'Rick Rogers in the 7th because I think he has a much higher ceiling than the guy we got. Plus we still need depth at receiver.

 

I would've taken Jarvis Jones instead of Richardson, and Rambo instead of Campbell. Other than that, I liked this draft.

 

I would've taken Da'Rick Rogers in the 7th.

 

Jarvis Jones or Eiffert instead of Richardson.

While Richardson might be good, the pick is a head-scratcher in terms of how he fits. You dont take a guy with a 13th pick if you dont have room for him on every down.

 

Did anyone pick him up in UDFA?

 

The Bills signed Rogers.

And for this thread, if I were the Jets I would have picked Eifert and Vaccaro.

I also wouldn't have picked Geno, that no-name guard in the 4th, the no-name DE, and a FB.

Love the Winters pick though.

 

Definitely Jones or Eifert instead of Richardson. If Richardson doesn't make an immediate impact next year then that valuable first rounder was a total bust.

Eifert and Jones will both make immediate contributions to the Bungles and the Steelers.

Also would've drafted a WR in a deep WR draft. The OL from Michigan was a wasted pick as he played DL most of his career and struggled there. Also FB's are a dime a dozen and plenty of free agent FB's available, another wasted pick.

 

Chance, J. Jones and Geno.

Outside of that I wont pretend to know more about the talent than I do.

 

why oh why do we continue to use late round picks on fullbacks?

what the fuck sense does it make to do it over and over again? you are looking for a great blocker, you can find them in the udfa pool.

 

Watch out for him tho.. dude has a HORRIBLE attitude.. a Titus Young type attitude,he is a 2nd-3rd round talent but dropped into a UDFA spot because it was THAT bad... i like his talent though.

 

The only things I'd really care about changing are our first round picks. I would have preferred Warmack and Jones. Then we could have taken Keenan Allen in the third instead of Winters.

 

9: Dee Milliner--I'm really not a Kyle Wilson fan. This was the pick I was hoping for all along. Rex's scheme needs top-flight corners, and as someone who hopes he stays after this year, drafting Milliner is a good sign.
13: Jarvis Jones--Fills the need at edge rusher that we've had since John Abraham left. Also considered Tyler Eifert and Kenny Vaccaro.
39: Geno Smith--I'm not a huge Geno fan but getting him at 39 is ridiculous value. Robert Woods is a consideration, but you can get through the season with Holmes, Hill, Kerley, and Braylon.
72: Barrett Jones--I still don't know how he fell to the fourth round. Maybe he won't be great, but this is a 10-year starter on somebody's offensive line. Keenan Allen would also be a great pick here.
141: David Quessenberry--More building up the line. Jets went OL/OL in the third and fourth, but they picked the wrong guys.
178: Michael Mauti--Versatile linebacker who would've been a 2nd-round pick if there weren't injury concerns. Can play inside in a 3-4 or 4-3, or outside in a 4-3.
215: Da'Rick Rogers--One of the most physically talented receivers in the draft. Worth a flyer in the 7th despite off-field concerns.

 

Warmack, Richardson, Woods, Glennon, I like the Ivory trade, Swope, Oboushi (great pick late), Bohannon is fine. I really like Glennon in the third lets us use Sanchez for a year and let Glennon develop then next years draft sets us up to be good for many years..

Jets stuck to their board which was exactly what I wanted.

Thrilled that they didn't reach for a guard at #9. Also am thrilled they didn't take Jones who had a ton of red flags

 

How would you know if they did or not? To me, this "best player available" stuff is a crock and an excuse.

There is no way anyone can convince me that Oday Aboushi was the absolute "best player on the board."

There is no way anyone can convince me that William Campbell was the absolute "best player on the board."

There is no way anyone can convince me that Tommy Bohanon was the absolute "best player on the board."

There is no way that at any given time there was not a good player at OLB, TE, or S that would've helped this team... in all of the rounds. To say they took the "best player available" is simply not true, IMO.
