[QUOTE=JetsOptimist;2387329]If the rumors are true that teams want to get ahead of the Pats, I think the best thing is to trade down, but stay in the top 10 and draft Mendenhall or Stewart. Not that I like them more than DMC. But I think there are good prospects at OLB that can be had at the top of the second, so we could get Mendenhall and Avril instead of DMC. But I don't think we can leave this draft w/o getting one of those 3 top RBs. What do you guys think?[/QUOTE]

I would go into next season with the same RBs we have and focus on other positions. Leon has improved from a productive rookie year at RB to being a solid back up to T Jones. There is no reason to doubt that Leon has a chance to become a better than average RB in the NFL. Thomas Jones was the tenth leading rusher in a year that most Jets fans thought he didnt get the ball enough. He also ran beind the worst line.

Fix the line and watch both Jones and Washington become better.
