1.4 RB Shonn Greene NYJ
According to NJ.com, the Jets "could hardly contain themselves" when RB Shonn Greene was still on the board after day one of the 2009 NFL Draft. Saturday night, after rounds one and two of the 2009 NFL Draft, and into Sunday morning, the Jets organization reportedly determined by a unanimous vote that they had to do whatever needed to be done to land Greene. They actually traded up to get him with the very first pick of day two (which was the start of round three). Jets running back coach Anthony Lynn had Greene rated as his top running back prospect out of all of the 2009 running back class. Jets coach Rex Ryan reportedly praised Greene’s vision and compared him Curtis Martin. "This is a special talent," Ryan said. "We want to run the football and this guy gives us that kind of ‘ground and pound’ that we’re looking for."

Holy crap this has been a topsy turvy draft. I had myself all set on getting Greene at 1.06. Other than the lack of hands I think this guy could be a great RB in the Jets system. Nice work!
