Has us taking Barnett with pick 8. McCaffrey fell out of the 1st round. Saints got both Taco Charlton and Obi Melifonwu damn.. 

I think we're all talking about offense players too much with our first. In reality it'll probably be Barnett, Charlton, Allen, Adams, or Lattimore I bet. It just makes too much sense. That's assuming that Fournette goes at #4 anyway. I think the team will get a RB + WR with the 2nd rounders.

Barnett is that lazy pick that a bunch of analysis' give to the panthers that you see every year. 

I thought most people just pick Dalvin Cook now that Fournette is widely considered to be going to Jacksonville and they think RB is our #1 need

lets be honest. None of these experts have any clue who Gettleman is thinking of taking. The 8 spot this year is right on the cusp of the sure fire blue chips and then the "rest" of the field. Guys that could go anywhere from 15-45 and no one would bat an eyelash.

Funny...I was just watching some highlights of Barnett because I hadn't really given him much consideration and wanted to see what kind of player he is....this dude is for real. He is so quick off the ball, great hands, and can cover the flats if called upon to drop off the line (which our DEs seem to do regularly).  I wouldn't be mad if we drafted him with the #8 pick.  He completely destroyed Cam Robinson on a couple of plays against Alabama. Also, he broke Reggie White's sack record at Tennessee.

Derek Barnett is thought of a lot higher as a prospect on internet websites, mock drafts, and message boards than he is in NFL personnel meetings and amongst coaching staffs. 

So I'm not saying you're necessarily wrong, but how do you know that for sure?

Has there been anything connecting us to Barnett? I'm intrigued by him, I've just seen nothing that indicates we have any serious interest.

Same with Star in 2013.  No visit, the tape and team need rued the day, as I'm hoping it will with Barnett.

    • Apparently the extension he signed before the season was also a little weird, as it had a very low signing bonus. So the Jets have a very small dead cap hit despite trading a big contract that was signed just 2 months ago. I guess it was only a $13 million signing bonus, and trading him mid-season means it's something around only a $10 million dead cap hit left to take. This is a huge win for the Jets for a player I've long felt was overrated because of a great nickname and an amazing rookie season that he's then failed to fully live up to since them.  Combine that with everyone knowing the Colts seem more mirage then legit long term contender, that 2027 1st in particular could end up being a really good asset for the Jets.
    • Steichen has the offense operating at a super high efficiency with JT/Pittman/Warren/Downs.  The OL is strong.The D - the front 7 has been sneaky good.  They don't instill much fear but do enough.  Buckner is stil playing at a high level.  It's a good system on both sides of the ball.  Blue chip players now at every position group.   Overall, the NFL is wide open right now. Seahawks, Colts, Patriots, Rams, & Bills are at the top of the mid-season hill - which is just wild Lions, Bucs, Broncos, Chargers* are in contention/okay spots (LAC is losing guys left and right though) Chiefs, Philly still linger, you can never discount. Steelers, 49ers are around as always.
