NY Jets draft and reconstruction

[Laxin]

Becton
Wills
Thomas
Wirfs
Jeudy
Ruggs

I thought Ruggs would only be a one or two trick pony initially, but he is an elite route runner.  Just like Jeudy.  Jeudy is just a little better there and in contested situations.

Not a fan of Lamb?

Lamb is really good but he isn’t a strong route runner and I worry he’ll have a tough time getting open early in his career.

What you doing if you’re forced to pick between Higgins and Lamb?

Trade out

I would assume in that scenario a damn good prospect from another position will be on the board if we can’t trade out. Like a top tackle, or possibly a CB like Fulton or Edge guy like Chaisson, even if I’m not really high on them for us at 11. I’d be happier with either than Higgins or Lamb given the depth of the WRs in this group

Here is Mr. Electric’s expert breakdown of "overrated" Oklahoma WR CeeDee Lamb:

Neither of you answered the question. Of course you would trade out or take a better prospect at a postion of need. That wasn’t the question.

It's impossible to answer that question before the NFL Combine and Free Agency.

Table all further discussion until then

I think that Tee is a great fit in our scheme, but Lamb is a much better YAC player (obviously).

Higgins wins down the field and in the red zone.  I think his game would help Sam more, but if/when we lose Robby Anderson, we'll need a splash player.  Lamb is a big play waiting to happen, but I do think he will struggle to create separation.

Not sure if I trust Gase to manufacture touches for guys like Shenault and Lamb.

I just don't think we know their value yet.  We also don't know what our pre-draft roster looks like yet either.

Good breakdown. Hopefully it’s a moot point because we’re drafting OL or there’s a better receiver available but it’s not a 0% possibility.

I'd honestly rather see us reach on a tackle like Josh Jones than take a receiver early. 

WR is deep, OT is not.

FA will answer a lot of questions, because Douglas might go out and sign a couple of tackles.  Then what?  EDGE?

If we don’t get our tackle in round 1, I don’t think we are getting more than depth /project starter.

With WR I think their will be some all-pros taken in the 4th or 5th round. This class is just too good. I have said it before but I want to double dip at WR if we keep Robbie and we definitely need to if we do lose him.

In FA we could theoretically sign enough OL to be satisfied not taking a guy early. But there aren’t any FA WRs to speak of aside from Robbie and Cooper. As for what we would do if we don’t have a tackle option we like, or sign a few, I don’t know that an edge player is a great option. I don’t believe in any of them to that level aside from Young who will be long gone. I think we might look at a corner like Fulton if the OL board is decimated and we cant trade out
