    If can we trade down, I agree with one poster. Devin Thomas is my pick.

    Bingo! and its unfortunate cause that true NO.1 receiver is something that would be the icing on the cake.

    No top 10 wide receiver isn't such a bad thing. Mike Williams, David Terrell, Nate Burleson. I mean these are guys within the decade who were picked in the top 10. If the top rated receivers are projected as low first rounders, it doesn't mean they can't surpass those projections and become our No.1 of the future.

    If there was a Braylon Edwards like talent in this draft, I'd be a lot more confident at staying at #6. The Jets, thanks to some recent moves, will have the ability to go BPA if they stay at their pick. I'd rather them trade down personally but I won't think it the end of the world if they stay there.

    I don't think they would want to trade down with getting a WR in mind. There's enough WR depth where they can find a very good one early in the second. If they move down, I think they focus on CB like Cromartie or Talib.

    True that. Here's someone to take a look at:

    "Receiver Darnell Jenkins, who was named team MVP this past season, said he improved his 40-yard time (4.45) and his speed during agility drills Friday. He said he spoke to 25 teams at the combine this past week and has been told by experts to drop from 187 pounds to 180.

    ''At lot of scouts say regardless if I ran the 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, when they watch my film it's much faster than that,'' Jenkins said. ``A lot of scouts say that I'm real tough and I'm capable of running past anybody and that's what they like about me.''
    --

    Notice he was voted team MVP? Not kenny Phillips, not Calais campbell.

    Unheralded, but as I watched the games last season, I kept saying to myself, wow, this guy can play. Kinda like when I first saw Ed Reed play, and I kept saying, "Who is this guy? He's awesome!"
