Every year most people laugh at the Jets picks and how they build a team. This year everyone is praising them and saying they look like a team that understands how to build a team. Yet the fans for the majority appear to still be unhappy, why is it that no matter what move the Jets make people seem to be whinning. Before the draft started some people said things like there is no way the Jets could mess this up. Now there are threads saying things like "Worst Draft ever".

I for one do not understand how people can be this upset or even upset for that matter. The Jets addressed needs with every pick so far. They didn't go for the big name guy every time instead they filled needs and looked at the big picture. Sure Leinart would have been nice but QB can be addressed in later rounds as it was.

The Jets had possibly one of the worst Olines in years last year. Now the Jets go out and solifify their Oline big time by adding a great LT and a great C, and some people are still complaining. In my opinion a winning team is built upfront first. If you don't agree then name me a great team with a bad Oline. Look at the Pats teams that have won superbowls. Tom Brady never got touched he got to sit back all day and make his throws. Last year the Pats line was a little unstable and look at the difference in how far they got.

Next, the Jets selected Clemens. Clemens can make throws down field and does not have to come in right away. QB's need time to learn the system before they can come in and be successful. A lot of analysts who get paid money to watch film think Clemens could have been a first round pick had he not been injuried. Additionally, a bust QB in the second round doesn't set you back 5 years it is something you can recover from. If your second round QB comes through though your team can be way ahead of schedule.

Finally dont forget that the Jets have added a second round pick next year.

To me the Jets have had a very good day so far and still have 2 more third round picks. To me this FO understands how to build a team. This is how to make your team better for years. This is not a quick fix that most of us have probably all become acustom to.

Is anyonn else with this train of thought of? Let me know what you think and please make a case for your point. If you disagree make a case for it. Please don't just say this sucks or something like that

Thanks Jetman.

I agree with you, great post. I must say that I was a little annoyed when they traded #35. I thought we could have grabbed lendale white. However, getting another pick in round 2 next year only helps since the Jets now have 2 picks or could send a # 2 somewhere else.
