I'll tell you what, I let out a sigh of relief when Ingram came out a few picks later. Coples is a perfect bustable marriage for the Jests.

I'm betting he crumbles in the spotlight....Jets had their mini run and IMO things will get worse before they get better in NY.
I know, I know....breaks my heart too. -
I actually like Coples, but there's no way I see him succeeding with the Jets. He needs a coaching staff and teammates that are serious about winning. He won't be getting that in New York. A team full of douchebags who don't know the first thing about leadership. Won't work.

Any Jets fans want to speak up?

I am no draft guru but the few times I saw him play he made alot of big plays.Hope he stops that!

What do they have planned for him, DE or SOLB?

I hope I am wrong now, but I see Coples having a successful career. Hes not close to Gholston, thats for sure.
However, with that said, playing DE in the 3-4 defense is not going to help that motor run hot more often. Hes going to have to fight through double teams.
On the other hand, he looked a little better when he was inside at UNC. So he may enjoy it in there a little more, which gets his motor going. I like Coples, I really do. But I think he may be a little disapointment due to wrong team and wrong system.
Its a shame, but I think their draft has potential to be unreal good. It could be bust city too.BleedinGreenNC likes this. -
You guys want my honest opinion? I hate the pick. The last thing we need to a lazy overrated bum. Comparing him to Vernon Gholston is a mistake. If this guy wants to be great, he can be. It's whether he wants it or not. The problem with Gholston was not his work ethic nor his attitude, he just ****ing sucked when it came to playing football.
It's truly a boom or bust pick for the Jets. Rex has already hinted that Coples will start on the opposite side of Wilkerson.
Coples - Pouha - Wilkerson. -
"The Gholston-a-pault"
"camouflage him as the 45 yd line, that way he'll be in position to get a sack"
That was hi-llarious...:D
As for Coples,I suspect he simply lacks the athleticism to be elite, he'll probably be a good player like Sean Eillis imoDestroyer likes this.
