Thanks Dcat. I'll get involved in the Jets draft talks. I remember Green Eggs and Ham. Wasn't a single draft that he didn't give the Jets an A+. Used to post regularly in the NY Times Jet forum I don't think it exists any more. My favorite draft day was when I argured that the Jets should pick Jonothon Vilma or Derrick Strait and they picked both with the Jet draft experts panning the picks saying they weren't athletic enough. Derrick hurt his leg as a rookie in the first game of the season and never recovered. Jonothon Vilma became defensive rookie of the year. I also pleaded for the Jets to take TE Heath Miller, who was there for the taking. Bradway traded the pick and selected two players in the second round, K Mike Nugent and CB Justin Miller.

First rule in the draft, pay no attention to the combines, Jets have been suckered into picking too many combine workout warriors.

Subject to change my picks for now would be:

1. LB Mont Te'o Notre Dame, he will fall to the Jets
2. RB Joseph Randle Oklahoma State from the program that produced Barry Sanders and Thurmon Munson.
3. QB Landry Jones Oklahoma, showing my OU bias only if Jets don't trade for QB Alex Smith, a West Coast QB that fits the new offensive coordinator.
