It took awhile but I finally have my NFL Draft Round 1 wish list for the Jets. It actually only consists of one pick, Ben Grubbs Guard, Auburn University. This is the guy the Jets should pick up. This will give the Jets one of the most solid offensive lines for a long time. With a line solidified with Nick Mangold at Center, D'Brickashaw at Tackle and Ben Grubbs at Guard it wouldn't matter who is carrying the ball. Below is a little bio of Big Ben Grubbs courtesie of NFL.com. Enjoy...
One of the most unheralded players in the collegiate ranks, Grubbs has that old-school mauler's mentality combined with the new-school athleticism that saw him become even more dominant during his senior year, filling the leadership void on the Auburn front wall. Not since the days of Alan Faneca (1995-97) at Louisiana State has a Southeastern Conference guard displayed that perfect blend of power, intensity and athletic ability that Grubbs brings to the field each week. Originally recruited as a defensive lineman, he moved to tight end during his redshirt freshman year before becoming a dominant force at the demanding left guard position for the Tigers during his last 32 games. Playing a variety of positions is nothing new for Grubbs. At Elmore County High School, he competed as an offensive lineman, linebacker and fullback during his four-year career as a starter. Super Prep rated Grubbs one of the state of Alabama's top 10 prospects, according him All-America honors. He was a Class 4A all-state selection as an offensive lineman by the Alabama Sports Writers Association, adding all-county and all-metro accolades as an outside linebacker. The Prep Star all-region choice registered 150 tackles and six sacks while also coming up with an interception as a senior. He rushed for 130 yards on 28 carries, scoring twice, and caught seven passes for 50 yards that year. As a junior, Grubbs posted 110 tackles, four sacks and an interception. He also lettered four times on the basketball team as a forward. Grubbs redshirted during the 2002 season at Auburn, competing on the scout team as a 251-pound defensive tackle. He appeared in eight games during 2003 as a 281-pound blocking tight end, but did not have any receptions. Grubbs continued to fill out his impressive frame, as he again shifted positions, taking over left guard duties as a 289-pound sophomore in 2004. He started every game, producing 76 key blocks, including 16 that resulted in touchdowns, and finished his first year as a full-time starter with a 90.38-percent grade for blocking consistency. He extended his string of consecutive starts to 25 in 2005. Grubbs teamed with tackle Marcus McNeill to form one of the best left-side blocking tandems in the collegiate ranks. He registered 64 key blocks, including 22 that produced touchdowns for the Tigers. For the season, Grubbs averaged 89.67-percent for blocking consistency. With McNeill and five other starters having graduated, the young Tigers' team looked to Grubbs to fill the leadership void in 2006. He simply dominated the action in the trenches during his final season. Courtesy of NFL.com

I lie your philosophy Unruler.
Real old-school football guys know that the 'skill' positions are a dime a dozen. If you have a dominant offensive and defensive lines, your football team will win. A great QB can't throw if there's no protection. A great RB won't go anywhere if the guys in front aren't good.
The opposing teams can't run or throw if you have a dominating D line, thus can't get the ball to the skill players that score the points.
To tell you the truth, this draft is deep at O and D line, I would not be disappointed if the Giants took a O-lineman at all.
Draft next week baby!
Lets just hope Manninbaum is old school too.
