runs a 4.39 at 6'1. They will coach him up. Trust that 

the guys an explosive athlete and I certainly do trust Sean when it comes to DBs. He’s not a 4.39 forty. Not at all. More a 4.50. Wanted Johnson so maybe just disappointed. Now hes a Jet.

They basically got back

in for a 5th round pick. How did Beane get burned so badly to move up

2 spots? 

 

They were desperate. I have to assume there was a big drop off on their board at corner after Elam.

For the first time in decades the Jets are having a heck of a draft.

[UKBillFan]

Typical the franchise with the best draft is in our division.

Jets having a great draft so far. Good pick in Johnson at this point in the draft. 

 

It's the only time of the year that they win..

Maybe he was the last first round graded guy left on their board and jumped to grab him

 

[In Summary]

So, Beane like to trade up and at least partially drafts for need. Nothing new here.

I hate to say it out loud but the Jets got a lot better tonight. 

[Jerboski]

Jets have done well tonight

Can’t help but feel that way. 

Sucks. Just seems so telegraphed by us. We never made a play at a CB in free agency and showed our hand for the draft. Such a strong chance we were taking CB and everyone knew it. It was blatant.
 

I can only imagine that KC was jumping us. 
 

Hopefully Beane was right with this kid.

His pass/rush win rate is abysmal. 14%. It's super low.

Fair enough as I don't watch a lot of college.

 

I am just basing it off all the experts having him as a top 10 pick

Interesting they didn’t have Johnson with a first round grade.

Bs. Jermane Johnson was a round 1 player for them?

Unless Zach Wilson becomes a star, its all for nothing

 

We all know it is a QB driven league.

Post better, or less... something needs to level this nonsense out

[H2o]

The Jets are having a solid draft. Now it's on the QB.

Well but if this is the case then this wasn't Beane's best moment.

Given the character stuff reported in the last few days probably wasn't on their board at all.

Yea, they might manage to finish 4th in the AFC East this year.
