The 2005 NFL season was a nightmare for the New York Jets.  Their starting QB, Chad Pennington, was sidelined for the season with shoulder surgery.  Their starting RB, Curtis Martin, finally began showing his age and he rushed for under 1000 yards for the first time in his career.  They finished the season 4-12 and fired head coach Herman Edwards.  Serious changes were about to be made in the Jets organization.

This is the latest 2010 NFL Draft Order with the latest playoff results reflected.

The Patriot’s defense is a mess right now, and it has been a topic of discussion on ESPN and NFL Network.  Most people attribute the struggling defense to the departure of most of the veterans that helped them win three championships (Seymour, Vrabel, Bruschi, Harrison, and Samuel).  I disagree with these remarks and believe the Patriot’s struggles are more-so due to their low success in the draft.   Belichick wouldn’t have been in this position if he was able to do a better job in the drafts, specifically in the recent years.
