2018 NFL Draft Thread

[Andrew Ryan]

Somebody catch me up here. Last I knew we were set to draft at 180 and it was like pick 170 or so.

What went down? I looked for new player threads, and don't see anybody aside from the trade for Henry Anderson.

We traded back twice with the Vikings and then drafted three players in the 6th round: CB Parry Nickerson, DL Foley Fatukasi, and RB Trenton Cannon.

That's awesome to get Nickerson, but I don't know anything about the other two. Anybody do any deep dives?

I hope Callaway gets caught selling pot to Mayfield.

Lol.

Quinnen Williams makes a lot more sense with the switch to the 4-3, but drafting interior DL hasn’t gotten us anywhere recently. We also have much more of a need at DE, considering we don’t have any true starters there, and at DT we have Leo - $14M a year, Shep - 3rd rd pick, Fatukasi - 5th rd pick, Pennel.

Unless you’re far and away convinced that Q Williams is the BPA you need to draft at a more premium position. Interior DL is a luxury pick for this team

Say Bosa and Allen go 1 and 2. Quinnen Williams is quite arguably the BPA. I could totally see that scenario playing out. We would be getting a hell of a player, but I hope we go in another direction.

Obviously FA will dictate how we want to use the pick. If we somehow steal Demarcus Lawrence or Frank Clark and another capable starter, I wouldn’t hate drafting Williams depending on the board.

Wow and I thought I didn’t like Luke Falk before...

He knew.

Quinnen Williams is going to be a very good player

We need him to be.

The two most important players for the 2020 Jets are Sam Darnold and Quinnen Williams. Both are young and talented enough where they can definitely be Pro Bowlers at their peaks. Is Quinnen going to be a rotational DL for his career? Or is he going to be a star worthy of a top-5 pick? If he can become that disruptive force we drafted him to be, everything changes defensively.

I’m 1000% confident in our D-Coordinator to get the most out of him this season. Guy made Nathan freaking Shepherd look like a player last season

And your guy Foley.

Foley and Shepherd both took big steps in their second seasons. Hopefully, Quinnen can do the same. Kyle Phillips, too.
