Well if this does come true, you had better hope we pick a bunch of offensive linemen to protect and block for your newly aguired newbies to the NFL. Because what we have now will not help those two a bit.
Yeesh, I really doubt we'd end up with both Leinart and Williams...especially if we stay put at our picks. But then again, I'm not the most accurate mock drafter in the last 3 years...
I would be more than thrilled if this could possibly happen, and I think realistically there is a shot that Leinart will be there at 4 and DeAngelo at 29. Unfortunately, I just don't see Mangini taking both.
We really only need a RT to start, the rest would just be depth, so at 35 we take Marcus McNeil or Eric Winston and we're fine. :breakdance:
We only need an RT?! Geez, our line as it exists now sucks like a hoover! Who the heck are you planning for Center? You think Jones is the answer at LT? Come on.
Jones is starting no matter what, even if we take Brick he'd just play RT where he's even worse. Trey Teague can hold down the fort at center this year and in the middle rounds we can take Degory, Eslinger, or Cook to be his replacement if they don't like Teague. Kendall and Moore is an above average NFL guard duo.
That would be a total dream. Take Winston or McNeill in early round 2. Jones-Kendall-Teague-Moore-Draft Pick (or Clement). That's not a bad offensive line.
Teague is garbage. Jones is not the answer. Mangold would start over Teague immediately, and I'd be willing to bet that Brick would move into the starting role at LT before seasons end. I'll agree the guards are OK.
I want a QB ( not Young ) so I could live with this 1st round prediction.. I doubt Hall will last untli 29 ... we'll just have to live with all the guesing games for a few more days. Shore up the OL and Dl in the later rounds. ( OLB if we're going to a base 3-4 in our defensive scheme )
I like Kendall, but I'm not sold on Moore. And I still don't think that we have a starting Center on the roster and even if Teague can hold the fort this year, what about next year. Mangold could be starting for us for the next 10 years.
That draft would be amazing for the Jets, but I can't see it happening ever in a million years. Can you imagine how Buffalo would freak out if they landed D'Brickashaw Ferguson with the #8?
