Mock A Rama

Tim Graham has a compilation of mocks that have the Jets going all over the map.

  • Kiper's pick: Cameron Heyward, Ohio State defensive end
  • McShay's pick: Phil Taylor, Baylor nose tackle
  • Bunting's pick: Justin Houston, Georgia outside linebacker
  • Davis' pick: Phil Taylor, Baylor nose tackle
  • King's pick: Muhammad Wilkerson, Temple defensive lineman
  • Nawrocki's pick: Akeem Ayers, UCLA outside linebacker
  • Rang's pick: Phil Taylor, Baylor nose tackle
  • Reuter's pick: Jabaal Sheard, Pittsburgh defensive end
  • Wilson's pick: Justin Houston, Georgia outside linebacker

As always, it depends on whom goes before. Taylor seems like as close of a consensus as there is right now. With all of this talk about his feet, it feels like there is a real chance he slides. I have a big question, though. The Jets took Dewayne Robertson in 2003, now widely regarded as a huge bust. He busted partially because of a knee condition. Will the Jets hesitate to take another guy whose frame puts a lot of pressure on a load bearing lower body part?

I think Taylor might be the risk. Do you?
