Typical coachspeak. I was burned by Greene the past two years. I'm not letting it happen again this year.

His total rankings, workload, and numbers have improved every year, LT is gone, and the Jets really didn't do much to add a threat to take away carries. He may not be a sexy pick, but he ranked 18th last year and his ADP is currently RB 24. IMO, he is available at a discount and he should be viewed as a "buy."

If he's there in the late 2nd or 3rd round, you could do worse. But this guy has disappointed severely. After his rookie year in the playoffs, this guy was prime to take over as a top 5 guy. He's wasted that chance but he's still in a system that provides opportunity with no clear rival in the backfield with him.

I am not a believer in his long term prospects because his talent is sub-par IMO. But I do think he is positioned to have a good 2012 as I am not convinced any of the other guys on the roster are talented enough to take away many of his opportunities.
