With the 18th pick in the NFL Draft, the New York Jets select…
Brandin Cooks, WR, Oregon State
Selection made by Alan Schechter, The Jet Press
Here is the analysis on the selection:
With Eric Ebron off the board, this is the pick that needs to be made. You don’t have to be a Jets’ fan to know that they are in need of playmakers. They have started down that road to recovery with Chris Johnson and Eric Decker. Now you add a guy that can fly like Cooks can, all of a sudden the Jets have a nice array of weapons, no matter if it is Geno under center or Mike Vick.
