What players should we root to get picked before the Jets in Round 1?

Here's my quick list:

Charles Brown
Bruce Cambell
Tim Tebow
Everson Griffen

There could be a real run on o-lineman in my mind. A lot of teams need either a LT of help anywhere along the line.

OL - Campbell, Brown
LB - Weatherspoon
TE - Gresham, Grankowski
QB - Tebow, McCoy

Ryan Mathews is a key name to get picked... if he goes early than 29 that's another player who drops

I would consider taking him if he were to drop to 29. I know it sounds crazy, but he's too good of a player to pass up. Maybe he can return kicks, and get a couple of carries in his rookie season, and then share the load with SG next year. We'll absolutley need youth at the RB position by next year.

Now, there's a couple of Defensive players I would take over him like, Graham, Kindle, & Cody, but I wouldn't have a problem with it.

its not crazy, considering how good Mathews can be and how much the Jets run the football.

I'd like to see

Tebow
D. Thomas
G. Tate
All the 0-linemen (incl campbell & Brown, Iupati, Pouncey)
Odrick
Cody

I want us to be looking at Graham, Bryant, Mays or Hughes.

Haha. Yeah, I caught that just as I hit the post button. Apparently the edit button option doesn't work on post headings.

Bruce Cambell is another key name, in my view. Sounds like some scouts think the guy plays only like a second or third round pick, but because of his measurables he's being looked at higher.

Don't see any chance of Tebow going that high.

Of the legit options:

Davis
Pouncey
Campbell
Brown
Odrick
Cody
Griffen
Gresham
Mays
Bryant
Clausen
D. Thomas
Tate
Matthews (who I think is a lock to SD if Houston passes on him).

That's 14 players.

If you assume Bradford, Suh, McCoy, Okung, Berry, T. Williams, Bulaga, Morgan, Pierre-Paul, Haden, Iupati, McClain and Spiller (that's 13 players) are locks to go before us as well, that would be 27 players, with the following still on the board:

Dan Williams
Sergio Kindle
Brandon Graham
Earl Thomas
Kyle Wilson

I'll take it.
