Jets selection GM Mock

Don't like any of the options, honestly. They could use a safety... not sure if Williams could switch or not.

I vote Carimi. I've literally never heard of Phil Taylor, though the Jets do need D-line help.

 

It's a tough choice between Carimi and Taylor, but they need to replace Jenkins up the middle and that really hurt them against Pitt.

It's hard to find a 330-340lb guy who can move well! They can get a quality OL later and I'm not sold on Baldwin. More importantly, they could just keep Edwards.

Smith is an intriguing prospect and you'd hope could get him going, but he couldn't do it for Gholston...so no Smith.

Gut

 

He played at Baylor after transferring from Penn State. I think he got in trouble at PSU. He's a huge guy, more like a 3-4 nose tackle. Very disruptive and had a great Senior Bowl.

I voted for Baldwin though. The Jets could lose Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes and if both leave they'd be quite depleted at WR. Baldwin is young but can jump through the roof.

 

Phil Taylor, best 0-technique in the draft. They need one, especially since they released Jenkins.

 

Jenkins was always hurt. They don't need to replace him, he did a whole lot of nothing in New York.

 

Phil isnt need, Jets have Pouha.. he was great last year.

 

Oh and I vote for Baldwin!

 

Completely disagree. Pouha played well in run support 2 years ago, when Jenkins got hurt. Last year, he still did decent in run support, but the whole defense suffered in pass defense. He provides very little pass rush ability, and he's 32. People are quick to point out the OLBs in the pass rush, but if you watch the games, he wasn't double teamed most of the time, allowing the open guard to block other players. I was forced to watch lots of Jets games last year, and this was very apparent. Ask any knowledgeable Jets fan.
