When the Seattle picking Bruce Irvin at 15 everyone hated the pick. I was a bad pick. Irvin a second rounder taken in the middle of the first round.
Cimini posted an article on ESPNny saying how WE wanted to taken Irvin at 16 and that Seattle knew that because they were planning on trading out. This pick would have made us the laughing stock of draft and not Seattle.
Another Cimini Jets bashing article. Can't stand this guy, he needs to get a job covering another team

Conflicting reports. Manish Mehta who is also very reliable said this was untrue, and the Jets had no interest in taking Irvin or even Ingram, Jones or Mercilus at 16th overall because the Jets didn't value them as top 15/16 players. According to him, it was going to be DeCastro if Coples was unavailable. This report makes more sense as the Jets obviously did not take a OLB prospect having their choice of basically all of them, and with the amount of time used for the pick were probably trying to move down.

I think that if Brockers was available at 16, we would have taken him over Coples. _________________

| honestly, Irvin may be the best pass rusher in this draft. He is no where near an every down player. I was really hoping he would slide to the 2nd round and we would trade up for him |

Why get worked up over what Cimini says. Who cares? It's irrelevant now. _________________

I don't doubt that they would have considered taking him along with Coples, DeCastro, and whoever else they had ranked on the big board. They Jets did take almost all their time, so that tells me they tried to trade down and/or had a discussion as to who to take at that spot if they didn't find a trading partner. _________________

he did the same thing when we traded for Tebow. First we werent spedning enough money on Drew Stanton. Then we were paying too much for a back up in Tebow. The guy is an [inappropriate/removed] clown. _________________

We already have Bruce Irvin we call him Mayhem and it didn't cost us the #15 pick.
Mayhem for free and Coples at #16 or Bruce Irvin at #16? I'll take the first one.
Honestly the only time I read Cimini now is when I start to get to excited for a Jets move or something. I guess you could say he keeps me level headed cause "Negative Nancy" always has something nice to say about how the Jets blew this or screwed up that. _________________

I doubt it. Would have been a terrible move imo. Brockers is a tremendous run stuffer but leaves a lot to be desired as a pass rusher. He's no where near the athlete Coples is either. |

I would not have been in favor of the pick, but the Jets appeared to have a lot of interest in him. _________________

I think Coples would have been our guy over Brockers but not over Fletcher Cox.
I feel like we did have interest in Bruce Irvin though but later on in the draft probably trading back into the 2nd. Believe Rex said Irvin was after Coples and Hill on their board. |

And we can say something similar about BB and Spygate. _________________

At least that had nothing to do with football unlike Spy Gate which is a permanent stain on New England's Football Legacy
anyway back on topic ... Cimini just seems to like stirring up controversy... we prob did want Irvin late tho (like late 2nd) since he is one of the best pure pass rushers in this draft but not much in any other facet of the game. |
