Mark this under the official overreaction thread Rolling Eyes

I mean come on. There's a good chance the Jets add two starters tomorrow. Watch some combination of Adams/Glenn/Randle/Jeffrey/Miller tomorrow and next thing you know people will be saying it's the best Jet draft since sliced bread.

Let's put things into prospective. There's no telling how successful this draft will be until 2-3 years from now. When we drafted Revis half the people on here didn't even know who he was, they were just satisfied we took a corner. When we selected Mangold, people were upset because we didn't take Addai. Just follow the board and take the best players available and our roster will be fine.

When we draft a guy a guy like Miller, Massie, or Jeffrey this will all calm down a bit.

I mean are we playing next week? We have a whole draft left plus there will be some camp cuts we could look at. Braylon Edwards anyone?

This is a little early before we crown ourselves the worst offense in the league, lots can still change.

The Jets need to address RB or WR in the worst of ways. We can compare our offense to 2010 all we want but we had Woody at RT Jones and Green at RB and 3 competent WR's by the end of the year. This year we have Green and one disgruntled WR who doesn't try. Our current offense is a shell of the 2010 offense assuming Sanchez doesn't take a huge step forward

I have no problem with the Cople pick.

In terms of the offense, I'm definitely worried, but if we do end up with Alshon or Miller, I'll be fine.

Like JK said, you can find OL depth everywhere.

Your post is on the mark NY Green. I think everyone here knows we need to immediately address our offense. And as you said, the line is the place to start. I think McKnight will be much more effective if he has an actual hole to run to. The jury is still out on Powell and Schonn seems to be on a downward slope. So your right lets get a quality tackle and guard and worry about the running backs and receivers later. We make the playoffs this year! GUARANTEED!!!!

Dudes, we have Tim Tebow. Crisis averted. Laughing

In all seriousness though, as long as we figure out the RT spot I think we will be fine. We need another starting WR, but we can still find that in the draft. If not there is always Bray Bray. But we definitely need to figure out what to do at RT. I would be worried if it's just Ducasse and Hunter fighting it out for that spot.

Sign Braylon Edwards- deep threat great blocker

Draft Juron Criner- possession guy great blocker

Draft Robert Turbin- Greene and Turbin let loose on defenses, while McKnight works magic out of the back field

Added to Holmes and Kerley working the middle, Keller/Cumberland working the deep middle and hopefully one of Hunter or Ducasse dont suck

Ground and Pound baby, as long as we work the clock and the D holds teams under 17 I think our offense will be fine

Our offense isn't very good. We all get that. I'm just not sure what you want them to do about it. They had very little money to spend in free agency and have made one draft pick. Most people agreed that that picks should have been and was used on a pass rusher.

They have mostly the same offense they had last year minus Plax and LT. Both of which looked old and useless for most of the year. They could draft a receiver in the 2nd and a late round RB and it would make up for what they lost. I know the offense wasn't great last year but they did win eight games.

It's funny how everyone says they want to build through the draft, groom some young players and stop signing big free agents. They say they don't want to trade up. They want to sit back and let the draft come to them like the good teams do. Then when the Jets actually do it, they start freaking out. Building through the draft can take time. Sometimes you miss on players. Sometimes you need to hit it big with a late round pick.

Lets not call this offseason a failure after one round of the draft.

If the Jets don't draft a receiver early tonight I don't think it's that big an exaggeration to say the Jets are in trouble if Braylon Edwards isn't healthy and capable of still being a good #2.
