Listening today it sounds like Chris Long to the Rams, Ryan to the Falcons, McFadden or to the Raiders, Dorsey to the Chiefs, Ghoulston to the Jets. Of course, everybody is likely lying.
That wouldn't be so bad.....Long or Gholston would be very nice. A team can never have to many good LB's.
I think the Falcons love Dorsey and would rather take Brohm or Flacco in the second than Ryan in round one. That means Gholston to the Chiefs, and the Jets stuck.
Trust me..Gholston will not be the pick. He is just not their type of player. He has no passion for football, he's not a leader, he takes plays off. This will NOT be the pick under any circumstances.
I really doubt that the Jets pass on Gholston if he's there at 6 and McFadden is gone. He could potentially be the rusher that we desperately need.
The whole game is decided at pick 2. If the Rams take Dorsey, then the Jets will get Mcfadden. If the Rams take Chris Long, then the Jets will be screwed. Why? Cause if the Rams take Dorsey, Ryan goes to Falcons, Raiders would take Chris Long, Kansas City would take Gholston or an OL and the Jets would get Mcfadden. If Chris Long goes 2, then Mdfadden goes to the Raiders.
Barring no trades- Rams will take Chris Long Atlanta will take Dorsey (no chance they take Ryan if Dorsey is there) Oakland will take McFadden KC will take Sed Ellis J-E-T-S will take the overrated, work out warrior Gholston.
:chargers: Assuming KC takes Gholston here's the options the jets have: 1. Use Dorsey or Ryan as trade bait to trade back. 2. Pick: Ryan if Atlanta picks Dorsey. 3. Pick: McKelvin - Best CB in the draft. Clady - 2nd best OT in the draft. Rivers - Best LB in the draft to help our pass rush opposite Pace. Stewart - A complete back, moves a pile, no baggage. Albert - Can plug G or OT positions, nice bust/injury insurance policy. Mendenhall - Another nice runner. Harvey - Next best DE in the draft (more tackles than Gholston 49/37) If it comes to this I wouldn't be surprised if we find another Revis/Harris in that group. In a way I wonder if our running game would improve more with an Albert as opposed to a McFadden.
1. Miami - Jake Long OT 2. St Louis - Glenn Dorsey DT Dorsey is better suited to DT than Carriker who will move to DE. 3. Atlanta - Matt Ryan QB They're desperate for a new face/QB for the franchise and Dorsey is the only player that would have changed this pick. 4. Oakland - Chris Long DE/OLB Davis surprises everyone and doesn't take McFadden. With 4 RB's already on their roster and plenty of needs on their defense, they take Howie's kid who is much less risky than workout warrior Gholston. 5. New Orleans (trade with KC) - Sedrick Ellis DT This trade makes the Saints entire draft. They knew they didn't have a chance to get Ellis if they sat at 10. KC can still get the LT (Clady) and QB (Henne) that they need with the 10th and 17th picks. 6. Jets - Darren McFadden RB BPA with the greatest value and fills a big need for a playmaker on offense. 7. New England - Keith Rivers LB Rivers fits their system and is their type of player. 8. Baltimore - Branden Albert OT/G They'll want to trade down but will settle for Ogden's future replacement at LT. 9. Cincinnati - Vernon Gholston DE/OLB They need help on the DL and wanted a DT but will settle for Gholston who will help them get pressure on the QB. 10. Kansas City - Ryan Clady OT Dropped down and still got the LT that they desperately need. 11. Buffalo - Devin Thomas WR Frees up Lee Evans. 12. Denver - Chris Williams OT The type of intelligent and quick OL that Shanahan likes. Should be able to pick up the chop block quickly. 13. Carolina - Jonathan Stewart RB They need a RB to keep defenses honest on Steve Smith. I think he's going to be a very good RB. 14. Chicago - Chad Henne QB A bit of a reach but when you're that desperate for a QB sometimes you have to. Plus they would have to hope that one of the other QB's fell to them in the 2nd rd. 15. Detroit - Rashard Mendenhall RB 16. Arizona - Leodis McKelvin CB 17. Kansas City - Derrick Harvey DE 18. Houston - Jeff Otah OT 19. Philadelphia - Mike Jenkins CB 20. Tampa Bay - Limas Sweed WR 21. Washington - Phillip Merling DE 22. Dallas - Felix Jones RB 23. Pittsburgh - Gosder Cherilus OT 24. Tennessee - James Hardy WR 25. Seattle - Kentwan Balmer DT 26. Jacksonville - Lawrence Jackson DE 27. San Diego - Tyrell Johnson S 28. Dallas - Rodgers-Cromartie CB 29. San Francisco - Jerod Mayo LB 30. Green Bay - Aqib Talib CB 31. New England - FORFEITED for being douchebag cheaters 32. Giants - Kenny Phillips S
