    Jourdan Lewis...

    Lots of talk about Jabrill Peppers but the guy with real cover skills in that defense is CB Jourdan Lewis. Peppers will be over drafted IMO because of the hype and I think he's a LB in the NFL not a safety or CB, he is athletic but his coverage skills concern me.

    Jourdan Lewis will be drafted by some smart team in the second round that truly watches that defense and recognizes his cover skills. He will have a long career in the NFL as a solid cover corner.

    I like Jourdan Lewis, the only drawback was his size. I would love to get him in the 2nd round. He's got bigger, because last year he was def undersized. I like him more then Peppers at the next level.

    Jets will go corner, the question is first round or second round?

    Cam Robinson in the 1st to shore up a tackle position for 10 years and Lewis in the second to shore up a corner for 10 years sounds good to me.

    I am not worried about Lewis' size. Too many people worry about measurables. The kid can cover and receivers are getting smaller these days anyway. I am actually happy that size is the knock on him because that means he won't be drafted high and a team like our Jets can scoop him up in the second

    Cam Robinson in a trade-down scenario would be good, but I am not touching him with a top 10 pick. I can see Robinson starting off as a RT and moving to LT if he were to improve.
