2006 NY Jets
Both prospects are exceptional talents and great leaders.
The only QB I would even consider drafting 1st round is Russell and he is not even the best QB at LSU.
I really feel that we need to build a more solid team and then plug in our franchise QB. I loved the Jets draft and almost envy them and their guts. They took the best pass blocking LT in years, and the best C in years. They just solidified their OL for a long time and now can cherry pick at the end of the first round for years to come. Pennington had a lot of controversy and is clearly not the QB of the future for the Jets, but he is servicable just like Carr is to us. I see it as the same situation. Granted Curtis Martin is better than Dayne, but they made the smart picks and it is already paying off with a trip to the playoffs this year. Our defense compares favorably to theirs honestly, with few standout players. Vilma = Meco = leaders. The only difference is that they decided to bite the bullet and take the linemen where I really don't think our FO has the guts to do so. We were both bottom feeders last year, and after a draft centered around top OL, they are a playoff team with the same questions at QB and RB they had last year, and an average defense.
