Jets trade Darrelle Revis to Tampa Bay for 2013 1st round pick (#13 overall), 4th round pick (#112 overall) and conditional 2014 3rd round pick. Jets trade 1st round pick (#9) to New Orleans for 1st round pick (#15), 3rd round pick (#75) and 2014 3rd round pick. - Saints looking to move up to take an offensive tackle after losing Bushrod. Draft: 1 (#13) Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia. 1 (#15) Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia 2 (#39) Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford 3 (#72) D.J. Swearinger, S, South Carolina 3 (#75) Barrett Jones, OL, Alabama 4 (#106) Tyronne Mathieu, DB, LSU 4 (#112) Zac Dysert, QB, Miami (Ohio) 5 (#141) Brian Winters, OL, Kent St. 6 (#178) Mike Catapano, DE, Princeton 7 (#215) William Campbell, DT, Michigan
I would be thrilled if this happens. Only problem is the running back position isn't addressed which seems like kind of a waste in such a deep class. In almost every team mock draft everyone is taking Tyrann Mathieu in the 4th or 5th so I have a feeling he will be taken earlier. If he's gone I like Stepfan Taylor with that pick.
With the exception of the first pick, Austin, I like this draft a lot. Sorry, I don't want our new GM's first pick to be a smurf best suited to play the slot. I know many love Austin and he was productive in college, but I prefer a WR a lot closer to the six foot mark. I believe with the 13th pick I'd take the OG Cooper. If Honey Badger is gone in the fourth, I'd consider Lattimore or Ellington. It may take Lattimore a year to rehab and he's rarely healthy, but when he is, he is atop five talent. I'd also take a close look at Moore or Jarvis Jones at 13 if either are still on the board (which I doubt, so my selection of Cooper).
also not a fan of the Austin pick. we already have Kerley, we don't need another slot guy. and we need a RB. Goodson or Powell aren't starters. other than that, I love it.
Gio Bernard !!!!!!! All day we need him he is a great WCO RB him or Johnathan Franklins who is deeply underrated i see him going in the 3rd so we can grab a OLB(Jordan,hopefully) in the 1st a TE in the 2nd maybe Franklin in the 3rd.
I have a very similar ideal draft in mind. It also includes a trade to TB where we send Revis for their 1st this year and 3rd next year. 1st #9- Star Lotulelei- NT- to good to pass up 1st #13- Jarvis Jones- OLB- to good to pass up 2nd- Zach Ertz- TE- rather a WR but Homes, Hill, and Kerly should be good enough if they play like their talent allows 3rd- Barrett Jones- G- starting G but can back up every position Trade- 2013 5th and 2014 3rd (Jets) to San Fran for their 3rd round pick 3rd- Christine Michael- RB 4th- Tyronne Mathieu-CB/FS- possible slot CB or starting FS 6th- Nico Johnson- ILB- good run defender but blows in coverage takes Scott's place 7th- Charles Johnson- WR- from Grand Vally State ran a 4.34 at 6'2 worth a shot
I would also be thrilled. Don't expect Mathieu, B. Jones or Swearinger to be there in those spots, but they're hardly reaches.
