Heath Miller 2.0 and quickly becoming one of my favorites at #20. Yes, that's right...in the 1st round.

Now, I know a lot of people are thinking "Taking a TE in the 1st round? That shit never works with the Jets and Gailey evidently hates the position!".

True, the Jets have had shit luck at the position...but I'm a firm believer that Gailey didn't feature the TE because we were trotting out dickbags like Cumberland and Davis. And if the Jets were offering a 4 year deal to Gresham, they clearly feel the need to upgrade. They can't continually rely on Enunwa as the #3 option and even though I like Amaro, you can't put all your eggs in that basket.

Watching more and more of Henry...I keep trying to find weak areas and really can't find a damn thing. Yeah, he's not a burner...but who cares?

Great inline blocker, soft hands, fights for the ball in traffic, runs good intermediate routes...

I think his stock is going to steadily go up as we creep closer to the draft. I honestly don't know why the hell I'm not seeing him as a Top 25 player in most mock drafts.

Use the pick on another position.

I will suffer from extreme projectile vomiting if the Jets go TE at 20. He's not Gronk and not worth #20. Want him in the top third of round 2? Then trade down from 20 for more picks or trade up in round 2. He could possibly be there for us them as well although not likely.

I like him too but not for the type of Offense we seem to be playing these days. I think we could find a Tier 2 guy who is an undersized pass-catching TE with some basic block ability in a middle round. We seem to be more of an H-Back type TE anyway....and the Jets kinda like Enunwa in that role. Between Enunwa, Amaro, Davis and Sudfeld I'm not sure the Jets will add another TE/H-Back type high in this Draft.

I also think Henry stands out slightly because there is no single dominant TE in this class. By most accounts there isn't a TE with a 1st round grade in this draft.

Just one opinion, from Walter Football....

Hunter Henry*, TE, Arkansas
Height: 6-4. Weight: 250. Arm: 32.75. Hand: 9.25.
Projected 40 Time: 4.70.
Projected Round (2016): 1-2.
4/2/16: At the combine, Henry declined to run the 40-yard dash, plus had a poor showing in the field drills. Teams also weren't blown away in his interviews. Still, this is a weak tight end class and Henry remains the favorite to be the first selected.

Henry had 51 receptions for 739 yards and three touchdowns in 2015. He did a nice job as a blocker and receiver for the Razorbacks, but they didn't use him enough in the passing attack. Henry has the quickness to get downfield with the athleticism to get open against safeties and linebackers. In the ground game, he was a steady blocker for Arkansas' potent rushing offense, but he isn't a bulldozing people-mover.

Sources have said they really like Henry, who is a balanced player and more complete than other top tight end prospects. He is a quality blocker and a tough receiver. Henry has quickness, size, good hands and route-running. He looks like a potential 10-year starter in the NFL.

Think next year he could end up in discussion for top 3 TE in 2017 draft. Makes all kinds of big time plays.
