Florham Park, NJ – It appears John Idzik has an affinity for running backs with dreadlocks. After Zac Stacy had a breakout year of sorts and the Rams drafted Tre Mason in the third round Daryl Richardson became expendable to the Rams and Idzik quickly pounced on the opportunity to add Richardson to this suddenly…
Let’s skip the standard generic joke about the players getting paid more to play in college than in the NFL, today marks the first day of work as actual employees for these rookies. Some of these players are just here temporarily, trying out to make the mini-camp/training camp roster, others are locks to make the…
With the Jets possessing 12 picks in this year’s draft everyone expected the Jets to package some of those picks to move up in the draft, after all it’s unlikely 12 rookies will stick with the team once the regular season starts, but using all 12 picks means sticking with Idzik’s mantra of building through…
With their only fifth round pick the Jets drafted inside linebacker, Jeremiah George, from Iowa State. George is 5’11 1/4″, 234 lbs, and ran an average (for linebackers) 40 of 4.91. He has 33 1/4″ arm length, put up an impressive 28 reps in the bench (worst for linebackers was 18, 30 was the most),…
The Jets have a busy day today with nine total picks on the day. They started off with three fourth round picks where they finally drafted a receiver and chased that pick down with a second receiver and a guard to close out the round for them. The first receiver they took was Jalen Saunders…
With their third round pick the Jets selected cornerback Dexter McDougle from Maryland. McDougle is a fast, (4.49 40), potential play-making/ballhawking corner, but missed a large chunk of playing time in college due to a variety of injuries. McDougle suffered a season-ending shoulder injury last year and broke his collarbone in a scooter accident in…
After going defense in the first round, again, the Jets finally decided it was time to draft a weapon for their quarterback(s) and that’s exactly what they got with Jace Amaro. Amaro is much more of a wide receiver than a tight end, he spent the heavy majority of his time lined up as a…
The Jets hold the 17th pick in round two and they will certainly have an interesting assortment of players to choose from, including plenty of receivers and tight ends for you fans starving for offensive players. Of course there will undoubtedly be a few really good defensive players available that could tempt the Jets, but…
Florham Park, NJ – For most of the draft process everyone had the Jets drafting a wide receiver or tight end in the first round, but over the past couple of weeks that trend turned to cornerbacks. After months of speculation the Jets finally made their selection and took a safety, Calvin Pryor, from Louisville….
Assuming the Jets don’t trade up or trade down there are four players I think the Jets are targeting, hoping will fall to 18. Because I’m only guessing at what the Jets board will look like and how the board will fall I have a three-way tie for who I think the Jets covet the…
