The speculation ended early Saturday as the Washington Redskins made cousins ​​fourth round pick of them - to 102 overall.

NFL Draft 2012: Jets select Quinton Coples with 16th overall pick

When Quinton Coples took a draft of his visit to the Jets last week, coach Rex Ryan did the talented defensive Lineman promises.

"If we had to choose, and I was still there, he was definitely going to take me," Coples said on a conference call tonight. "I am grateful that he is a man of his word."

The Jets used their No. 16 pick on a two-year starter from North Carolina, believe he can improve traffic rush them. This is the second time in two years that the Jets used their first round pick on defensive Lineman, by choosing Temple's Muhammad Wilkerson last year.

Coples has excellent physical properties (6-foot-5 and 284 pounds) and athleticism.

Redskins-Rams Trade: Cleveland Browns Come Up Biggest Losers In Robert Griffin III Sweepstakes

Yes, they are paid to the king's ransom. However, the Washington Redskins are hoping that Robert Griffin III will only change that for them - the next division of the King, which also boasts of Eli Manning, Tony Romo and Michael Vick. You can win the NFC East, Redskins simply could not throw the second season of Rex Grossman of the center (or some equivalent), so they did what they had to do.

It is a common theme of these teams in recent offseasons - doing what they should do. Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals would like to do the same Peyton Manning. And those teams that lost has to take a Plan B route, which is likely to lead to more mediocrity in 2012.

What are the other team, which loses all of this, Cleveland Browns do not seem to aim at any particular. Manning, sweepstakes, they do not and do not pull the trigger to move up and Griffin. Maybe they thought they had time. Maybe they did not agree on the price. Both are understandable, but now they sit Colt McCoy again, and the AFC North division that is likely to leave them to pick the top five in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Matthew Williamson viat Browns as good Scouts, Inc. He writes: "Yes, Washington gave up laskeutua ton of this potential phenomenon, but it is a cost of doing business. One thing I take away from this event will be ashamed of Cleveland for letting this happen. Browns were the driver's seat to move only two places for nature, but instead of becoming more powerful, they are likely to sign the aim of mediocrity and Matt Flynn or the use of the second round pick is a possibility, such as Brandon Weeden, or Kirk Cousins. Again, that aims at mediocrity. Griffin was just that the franchise and the city is needed, but the Browns did not get it done. "

Chiefs is essential in this document as well, although they are broken allowing them to be somewhat better than would be Brown. After all, they almost won the AFC West in the period in which they fired their head coach. But to compete with any higher level, commanders will have to find that at some point and urgency to make a play quarterback. Otherwise, they will continue to linger as the league average for a team for a while.
