At least Favre retired before the draft so that Jets can adjust their draft plans accordingly. Last year they stocked up their defense so I don’t see any holes there. Their most glaring need right now is quarterback, of course.
Here is the list of top QBs in the draft at this moment.
Matthew Stafford (Georgia)
Mark Sanchez (Southern California)
Josh Freeman (Kansas St)
Detroit will probably take Stafford. Even if they don’t, there is no way he lasts until #17 where the Jets sit. Sanchez might be available by then. The big problem for the Jets is going to be draft order.
Besides the Lions, I really don’t see any other teams in need of a QB drafting in front of the Jets, unless you think the Chiefs need a QB. But at #3, that is certainly too early to draft Sanchez. I think the Jets sit on the pick. They may draft Sanchez, they may not.
There is also the option to absolutely tank this season and draft one of the gunslingers in the 2010 draft.
