Interior linemen is a need for the Jets though...they need a Guard and I wouldn't be surprised if they took one in the first round.

They need a RT before they need a LG.

I could see them take Mike Adams. Which I hope they do. Mike Adams is awful.

See, I feel the opposite. I feel that there is much more of a chance that the Pats make 2 picks in the 1st round than there is them trading back. Especially with the needs on defense..

I do not see them signing an RFA with a 1st round tender.

Neither do I, however, they ALWAYS trade their last 1st round pick to another team so that next year, they can have a higher first first round pick.

The only "high-rouind" RFA tender I can recall them signing under BB is Welker, and that was clearly a case where they felt they couldn't do anything better with the draft pick in the draft.

So, if they don't see, say, Lardarius Webb as better than any player they can get at #31, I doubt that they'll cough up the first.

Interesting take on Barron. Would you use Oakland's 2nd-rounder on him, if available?

I like that Markelle Martin is falling. I'd be happy to have him in the 3rd round.

But he's falling because he sucks.

He's still worth a 3rd or 4th rounder.

This is false. They do not always trade their last 1st round pick to another team. Ben Watson says "HI".
