    Howard's been fine, Ducasse is coming into his own and Moore/Slauson 1 or both will be back.

    WR is a need like I said value is there late unless Justin Hunter or Keenan Allen is available in the 1st then I could wait til the 3rd. RB is high priority unless we see what Powell and McKnight can do together. Fullback is not a need but Tight End is

    On defense we need 2 outside linebackers as well

    OLB x 2
    RB
    TE
    WR
    OL
    S

    We need both, our team speed overall is pathetic sans Revis/Cro

    Anyone who thinks Howards been fine has to start opening their eyes during games.

    He was good week 1, but he got completely schooled the last 2 weeks.

    I agree that we need some speed and youth on defense, Maybin and Davis hopefully can offer some more next year.

    But our offense is HORRENDOUS, our defense is good

    He played decent in Pitt, but Cameron Wake had a field day. His run blocking okay. His pass blocking has been better than Hunters' but that is Hunter

    I can't wait to see Hunter against the Seahawks' pass rush twice lol

    Then again our o-line probably won't do much better, especially with ZERO threat of a running game.

    Irvin with 2 sacks tonight. Chris Clemons with 4. 8 total, with a quarter to play.

    I bet we don't get 8 sacks over the next 4 games.

    Bruce Irvin has serious red flags, like should've been drafted by the Bengals red flags

    Let's go easy on this QB of the future stuff. The guy looks good but he's only played 2 1/2 games.

    I don't mind the speculating on all the other guys accomplishing things around the league...thats fair game, and certainly maybe some of these guys would be a good pick. But we haven't even really seen Coples yet! Its crrrrazy, they have him in on like 15% of the plays for the year.

    He's our first rounder, he needs to play more than that to have a chance to make an impact. He should be out there at least 50% of the snaps. Not Coples fault...yet. I personally think he's a beast and given a chance he will make you smile.

    Seahwaks in week 1 and 2 - 2 total sacks
    Tonight 9 sacks - 1 in the second half and that was on a run.

    Let's calm down and see them generate pressure in another game.

    We drafted a good pass rusher in Coples and turned him into a run stopping D-Linemen.

    We draft the #1 pass rusher in the draft and give Marcus Dixon and Mike DeVito more snaps than him

    So you are saying Rex is the defensive genius he claims to be? :lol:

    Seriously though, there have to be reasons why he is barely playing (lazy perhaps). :breakdance:

    who knows but he's consistently in the backfield and if we had someone to set the edge and close the pocket he would get sacks

    I'm just kidding. Considering the Jets get nothing resembling a pass rush, I'm not sure why Coples can"t get more playing time. There has to be a good reason, right?

    Irvin looks very good...

    And if the Jets drafted him, all we would have heard for the past 5 months was how terrible a value pick it was, how dumb Tannenbaum was, etc.

    Just goes to show you can't judge the draft before they start playing. Three games isn't close to enough either, for all I know, Irvin could end up being a huge bust still.
