Eh I wouldn't be too happy with Michael Bush. He seems a little tall to be a RB. He reminds of Brandon Jacobs, plus he's coming off a major injury. Lamar Woodley, DeMarcus Tyler and Marshawn Lynch would all be great picks.
Justin Harrell has got to be there as a possibility. He's one of the few defensive linemen in the draft with the size to play DE in a 3-4 and the quickness to make it work. The early injury (ruptured biceps) masks his value to some extent. If he is fully recovered he's a top 25 player and at a need position.
The only thing I don't like about the picks is if we used 3 out of our first 5 picks on Running Backs I would want to go away and cry. It will never in a billion years happen. I am not convinced we go after a RB in round 1 yet.
Brian Leonard over Justin Blalock? Were the people who created those mock drafts a collection of crack addicts?
Please, please, PLEASE no Michael Bush! The guy is the next Eric Schelton, mark my word. Marshawn Lynch has no chance of falling to 25. LaMarr Woodley... now that Bryan Thomas as emerged as our pass rushing OLB I don't think this move would make sense especially because Victor Hobson also had a career year and should be re-signed this off-season along with Rhodes & Cotchery. Adam Carriker at 25 would be a great pick and I'm all for it. Kimo to the bench or Kimo to the FA marker with Carriker coming in and could start at RDE to complement Ellis at LDE.
My Favorites at #25 for the Jets (in order) Justin Blalock Jarvis Moss...........not on list, he just declared. (Will probably move out of reach in the next few months) Quentin Moses Marcus McCauley Tank Tyler IMO, Everyone else on that list is a reach (Irons), will be gone( Lynch) or I just want the Jets not to draft(Woodley, not a fan).I love Patrick Willis but he will be a mid-teen pick....to a team like Buffalo or Carolina. I really like Carriker, but ,IMO, he's a reach at 25. If he lasts to #37 , no problem.
