Does the Marshall Trade Give the Jets More Reason to Draft a CB With its First Pick?

I think it does. I wanted McCourty or Jackson before Marshall was traded to the Fins, and now I want the Jets to go that direction even more. Alternatively, Chris Cook in the second round wouldn't be a bad consolation prize, but there's no guarantee he'll last that long.

No for a few reasons:

1) Revis can handle Marshall, Cromartie can handle Bess, and Lowery can handle Camarillo.

2) We need a pass rush and youth along the dline.

Now if they feel a cornerback is the best player available, then that's fine. I just think that if you look at whose likely to be there at 29, corner would be more of a reach at this point.

My view has been that there's good CB value at the bottom of the first round (i.e., McCourty and Jackson). I definitely wouldn't want the Jets to reach for a CB. Also, I know our two starting CBs can cover the two starting WRs for each of our division opponents, but depth would give us a good insurance policy in case one of our CBs gets hurt and also give us a better nickel-back option for when we face teams with high powered passing attacks (i.e., Colts).

I can see the Jets taking a corner but not because of the Marshall trade.

We don't have any glaring holes on this team outside of maybe DE, and we still have a solid young guy there in DeVito.

I'd still prefer to go with a DL in the first and pick up someone like Dominique Franks or Brandon Ghee in round 2.

But I'd have no objections to taking McCourty or Jackson at #29.

Why? The Fins only have 1 good WR and the Jets have 2 No. 1 CBs.

That said, as mentioned, the Jets could still draft a CB high but it will have NOTHING to do with Marshall going to Miami.

I don't like the idea of letting what other teams in your div do have a big impact on players you pick. If we draft a guy that can put Henne on his ass or flush him out then Marshall will not have a huge impact.

The more I think about it the more I want a pass rusher. If only gholston had become the guy we had hoped.

drafting for depth in the first two rounds is a no no.you can be rest assured that the jets go defensive line in the first two rounds.

The Jets are trading up for Eric Berry. They will find someone to rush the passer in the 2nd round.

How are they going to trade up that high and still have a 2nd round pick?

He isn't getting past 7.

Imagine what it would cost to move up 22 spots?

Eric Berry is a top 7 pick. If the Jets want to trade up it will cost them their first, second and fourth rounders. That will be almsot the end of their draft. There will be no pass rusher or anything else.

It should be
1. DE or OLB
2. OLB or DE
4. CB

The Jets have no other immediate needs than those. They are a very solid team with the above small draft picks. 6 & 7 BPA or used to move up. Frankly they have no available roster spots if you look at the roster.
The OL is fine and can be addressed next year in the first round. No need to groom a great OLman. Brick and Mangold started day 1, as do many outstanding OL first rounders.

Maybe. You might be right. I was just looking at what the Jets had this year and what other trade ups cost in the past.
I believe it is unthinkable to give two firsts except for a franchise QB. And I don't mean Sanchez. I am thinking of a Peyton Manning caliber.
