This is the point in the draft where you look for the best atheletes, even if they aren't exactly at the spot that you need. Hence, Schlegel is a terrible pick.
if we take a RB in the draft, I wouldn't mind seeing C. Houston's college teammate here - Gerald Riggs Jr.
Good question. You don't know what the Jets FO is thinking at all. How much research did you do on Schlegal? Are you upset with this pick because you never heard of his name, or maybe because some draft site told you he was projected in the 5th round?
you never know the tangini regime may have seen something in him the other scouts never saw. also now i know how new england fans sounded when couch Belichick was drafting all those super bowl championship years. I bet the were crying alot too.
it seems like the Jets staff has done their homework. I don't know much about Schlegel, so I'll reserve judgement until I see him play a little.
The full RB list. 3 more still viable for today 1.Reggie Bush, USC 2.DeAngelo Williams, Memphis 3.Laurence Maroney, Minnesota 4.Maurice Drew, UCLA 5-Joseph Addai, LSU 6-LenDale White, USC 7-Jerious Norwood, Mississippi State 8-Brian Calhoun, Wisconsin 9-Andre Hall, South Florida 10-Leon Washington, Florida State 11-Cedric Humes, Virginia Tech 12-Taurean Henderson, Texas Tech 13-Quinton Ganther, Utah 14-DonTrell Moore, New Mexico 15-Jerome Harrison, Washington State 16-Mike Bell, Arizona 17-Derek Ross, Tarleton State 18-Wendell Mathis, Fresno State 19-Terrence Whitehead, Oregon 20-Wali Lundy, Virginia 21-Antonio Warren - Arkansas St 22-Gerald Riggs, Tennessee 23-De'Arrius Howard, Arkansas 24-P J Daniels, Georgia Tech 25-Ryan Gilbert, Houston
Riggs is terrible. He's a fumbler who does not block well. He also is not a hard worker and thinks he's good just because his father played in the NFL.
Pennington was not brittle until he got injured. And Parcells drafted him. Two totally different situations.
I want Herm back atleast i know he would never draft this dumb that lb we drafted will be out the league in 4 years.
