Meh. No matter what happens they're getting a great player. Same with NE.
 
I don't care who they draft as long as it's not Vernon Gholston. McFadden would have to share the filed with the fairly newly aquired Thomas Jones and young Leon Washington. Can;t have all 3 of them on the field at the same time.

not to mention Jake Long's only sack came to Gholston. If the Jets were to draft him, this could get ugly between Jake Long and Gholston going at it for years to come.
 
They'll get one of the following 3 players, and that sucks:

Darren McFadden
Vernon Gholston
Chris Long

If Rams take Long, Oakland determines what the Jets do.
 
If we shore up our run defense, we won't have to worry about toothpick legs breaking long runs on us. I'm more concrned about what the Dolphins are doing. Besides, the Jets SUCK!
 
i agree that they are going to get a great player such as C Long, Gholston, or McFadden.... but a runningback has a lot bigger effect on a game. I am not trying to say that Long and Gholston wouldnt effect the outcome... Im just saying that a runningback such as McFadden would get 20-30 touches a game.... a defensive end would make a couple tackles a game... maybe a sack or two..

Would you be more worried about Adrian Peterson or someone like mario williams?
 
What was our record again last year while Ronnie was leading the league?
 
the jets are without a doubt going to select D-MAC if he
makes it past the raiders. they dont have enough clout
and they need to many players to make a trade up.

you are a going to see why we should have taken him for
the next 8-10 years and thomas jones and all the rest of
them are DONE with any kind of real playing time. unless
he holds out, he will be starting for jets from day 1.

i like jake and i think it is s good one seeing how we need
a tackle and and he was one of the top 3 best players in
this draft.

but whem a superstar talent like this comes along and can
put points on the board....YOU TAKE IT!!

we will be getting plenty of reminders on this soon.

VERNON GHOLSTON? i hope to god that is there pick. he is
going to be a BUST in the nfl.

The same record we had when Jason Taylor was running our defense? I assume you are trying to say that Long or Gholston will be better than Jason Taylor?

you overrate the position.
 
Ronnie Brown was the only reason we came close in any of those games by the way.....

no, I'm saying RB is an overrated position.

Both, equally. Honestly.

On the flipside, though, it could be a blessing in disguise if the Jets get Vernon. Sparano could help Jake conquer Gholston, and 2 annual dominations of his college kryptonite could really help Jake feel like he's back to no sacks, so to speak.
 
I dont understand how you can say its an overrated postion when you have guys like peterson or tomlinson taking over games. I go back to my last point.... are teams more worried about rb's like adrian peterson or de's like mario williams?

RB's are overrated, yet they touch the ball 30 times a game? DE's get a tackle or a sack how many times a game?

Did I ever compare him to a DE? A single player isn't going to "lower our chances." Especially a RB.
