We haven’t drafted a WR in round 1 in almost 2 decades. Santana Moss. Wasn’t disappointed with him at all. Was more disappointed that we gave him away because Chad Pennington couldn’t throw deep balls. You are correct. It is the exact opposite. Let's compare Jets 1st round WR success/failure with round 2:Round 1 WRs: 1980: Lam Jones - bust 01985: Al Toon - star 11991: (Supp 1) Rob Moore - good 0.51996: Keyshawn Johnson - star 12001: Santana Moss - good 0.5Rd 1: 60% success rate Round 2 WRs: 1980: Ralph Clayton - bust 0 1990: Reggie Rembert - bust 0 1994: Ryan Yarborough - bust 0 1996: Alex Van Dyke - bust 0 2012: Stephen Hill - bust 0 2015: Devin Smith - bust 0Rd 2: 0% success rate Give me a WR at 11 and get one that JD believes actually fits the "JD/AG Scheme" OTs in rd 2. Cleveland, Paert, Niang etc. Edited March 31, 2020 by dcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetfuel34 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I agree with this. I just hope Becton gets picked in the top 10 along with a surprise pick and that will push some guys down to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 At the end of the day I’ll be happy with an OLineman or WR at 11 (Jeudy, Lamb, Ruggs, Wills, Wirfs, Thomas, Becton) outside of those 7, I’ll be pissed. That being said... I’ll be less pissed if we drafted a guy like Jackson over a CB or an Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is. McShay is tight with JD but Daniel Jeremiah is as well and he thinks Jets take Lamb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsandI Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 McShay and Jeremiah are satisfied with Jets' new mashed up OL? Interesting. We will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah.. hard to know. McGovern is only that is guaranteed to start for at least first 2 seasons. If everything goes well, same OL continues to next season. If not, we continue whining about OL next offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might have moved WR higher up as a need for us now after FA. We technically downgraded at WR (when we were already in the mix for a WR before the downgrade). And we upgraded the OL (to the level we want? Probably not). So it could very easily switch peoples boats up for us. It did mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rampantjet Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 See they are both playing D for JD. They know he wants WR but they know the one he really wants is Ruggs lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDotNova Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) I’m on the Ruggs bandwagon. Been jumping around a bit. But I agree with those that say no other player changes the dynamic of this team more than Ruggs. You put Ruggs on the field and all of a sudden our weapons look solid. You have to account for Ruggs at all levels. But you can’t just double him and ignore Perriman because he’ll burn you deep. Ok. So you cover both of them and now Crowder will slice and dice you all day long. Teams will have to worry about big plays all day which will open up the run game. The constant pressure will be fun to watch. And it’s now not just all Darnold to hit the big plays because Ruggs can catch a slant or swing pass and take it to the house. Players like Ruggs don’t come along often. The second tier OL will be plenty to provide Darnold the time to make it happen.

But I feel Ruggs is a legit game changer. And we need that bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJerseypaint Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Jeudy might not run a sub 4.3, but he can still stretch the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeudy has speed but he does it with crisp route running. Ruggs does it with speed but is also a good route runner. With Lamb you get a bit everything. He might be the best if the group with the ball in his hands making guys miss and breaking tackles. I’m happy with any of the 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
