Jets NFL Draft Analysis - Day 2

Round 4
Kerry Rhodes S/Louisville - Mel Kiper says he likes Gerald Sensabaugh from North Carolina better (he went one round later in the draft to Jacksonville). I get the feeling the Jets are trying to fill special teams here, as opposed to find a bonifide starter. On the other hand, Erik Coleman, who started most of the year at FS, was a 5th round pick. I don't understand why the Jets traded up for this pick with Jacksonville (unless this is from some old trade?).

Round 5
Andre Maddox S/NC State - I wonder why they wanted to pick another safety. They must not be too happy with McGraw and Tongue. Is he just here to fill in a bit for special teams?

Round 6
Cedric Houston RB/Tennessee - CNNSI makes it sound like this is a big guy who likes to run north/south but has never lived up to potential. Not a bad choice this late in the draft, and I wonder if this is the kind of guy who could do very well in those third and short / one yard line type scenarios.

Joel Dreesen TE/Colorado St - The CNNSI projection for him was "Late Third Round," so that seems promising. Now the Jets have three TE's, and considering Offensive Coordinator Mike Heimerdinger's reputation for liking double TE sets, and Doug Jolley's past injury woes, it's probably a very good value pick here. I'm not sure if there were other needs they could have filled here, but what was once a position of weakness now at least has a few options.

Round 7
Harry Williams WR/Tuskegee - I could not find very much information online about this player. This article ranks him as the #7 HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) player in the draft. It sounds like he returns kicks.

I'm a little surprised that the Jets haven't tried to settle their offensive tackle position here in the second day. I haven't been paying too close attention to the prospects who are available in the position on Day 2, but I can't help but wonder if they passed up some decent prospects for some of these players.
