FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - The New York Jets head into the NFL draft with several needs and plenty of picks. General manager John Idzik also has loads of options with the No. 18 selection. Wide receiver? Cornerback? Tight end? Trade up, or down? Well, its anyones guess — the Jets included — right now. But with the depth of this years rookie class and currently holding a whopping 12 selections, New York will likely be able to add a few impact players. "Well go in open-minded," Idzik said. "The nice thing about having 12 picks is it does give you flexibility and manoeuvrability within the draft." Since taking over as GM last year, Idzik has preached a philosophy of building through the draft. And the 12 picks are just one less than the 13 the Jets had in coach Rex Ryans first three years from 2009-11 combined. Idzik took a deliberate but frugal approach to free agency, still landing perhaps the top three players available at their positions in quarterback Michael Vick, running back Chris Johnson and wide receiver Eric Decker. Despite not being the active spenders many fans hoped the Jets would be, that perception wont affect the Jets draft-day approach. "We view the draft, again, as a talent-based operation," Idzik said. "Were just going to go after the best players for our organization, so I dont know that theres any more pressure based on what transpired or what may not have transpired in free agency." Here are five things to know about the Jets heading into the draft: PLETHORA OF PICKS: Having loads of draft selections doesnt always translate into long-term success. With 12 picks, four of which are compensatory, the Jets have their most since having 10 in 2006. They also had 10 picks in 2004, but havent had as many as 12 since 1998, when their first selection came in the second round with defensive end Dorian Boose. Of those 12 players, only fourth-round tackle Jason Fabini became a regular starter for the Jets. Only one player other than Fabini, third-round safety Kevin Williams, started more than one game in New York. Oh, and five of those selections never played for the Jets in a regular-season game. STAYING PUT?: Despite all those picks, theres certainly a chance the Jets wont keep them all. They might not even stay in the 18th spot, if the right opportunity to trade up — maybe to get a Sammy Watkins or Mike Evans — comes along. That spot in the draft has produced some decent talent in recent years, including Chad Pennington (2000), Calvin Pace (2003), Joe Flacco (2008) and Maurkice Pouncey (2010), but generally very few Pro Bowl-type players have come at No. 18. "We feel if we stay at 18 that well have the ability to select a good player, somebody that can come in and help us win," senior personnel executive Terry Bradway said. TARGETING NEW TARGETS: Whether its Geno Smith or Michael Vick under centre this season, the Jets addressed the wide receiver position in free agency by bringing in Decker, who immediately upgrades the group after two huge years catching passes from Peyton Manning in Denver. But theres still room to improve. While Watkins and Evans are expected to be long gone by No. 18, the Jets might have a tough decision between LSUs Odell Beckham Jr., Oregon States Brandin Cooks, Southern Californias Marqise Lee or Florida States Kelvin Benjamin. ANOTHER CORNER?: Yes, the Jets took a cornerback with their first-round pick last year in Dee Milliner. But it could happen again, because the Jets might need another top-notch player at the position. After releasing Antonio Cromartie, Milliner became the de facto No. 1 cornerback. The current options to start opposite him are free agent signee Dimitri Patterson, and Kyle Wilson, the teams top pick in 2010, who might be better suited as nickel backs. It wouldnt be a shocker if the Jets jumped on Michigan States Darqueze Dennard, TCUs Jason Verrett, or Virginia Techs Kyle Fuller at No. 18. TIGHT SPOT: The Jets re-signed Jeff Cumberland in the off-season, and Ryan has raved about how he is developing into an all-around tight end. But Zach Sudfeld, Chris Pantale and Konrad Reuland, coming off a knee injury, are the only other tight ends on the roster. So, if North Carolinas Eric Ebron is available, the Jets could opt for perhaps the top-rated tight end in the draft. If not, Texas Techs Jace Amaro or Washingtons Austin Seferian-Jenkins could be possibilities in the second round.

His adjustment to life in Canada has been made easier by Marlies rookie defenceman and fellow Swede Victor Loov, who is living with Nylander in Toronto.Hes cooking food and that kind of stuff all the time so it makes my life easy, said Nylander, the Leafs 2014 first-round pick. Swedish meatballs. Ive been here now three days, had Swedish meatballs like seven times so its good.It has been a whirlwind month for Nylander, who began January playing at the world junior hockey championship in Toronto. Nylander led Sweden with 10 points in the seven games as the Swedes finished a disappointing fourth after cruising through the preliminary round with a perfect 4-0-0 record.Following the tournament, Nylander returned to Sweden and appeared in two games with Modo of the Swedish Hockey League before being summoned by the Maple Leafs to join the AHLs Marlies.We like what weve seen from William through the first half of the year and through the world juniors, Maple Leafs assistant general manager Kyle Dubas said last week. Now its an opportunity for him to come over and get acclimatized to playing in North America.The Leafs had to make a decision on Nylander before Jan. 16. After that he would have needed to remain in Sweden for the rest of the season before being eligible to come to North America.Nylander, who made a switch to centre this season, will likely start Friday on the wing alongside Greg McKegg and Spencer Abbott.For him its about getting back in to the scheme of things and how we do things here as a group and our systems, said Marlies coach Gord Dineen. We have a group thats really bought in lately and were playing a pretty strong team game.We want him to be a part of that and add to it with his skills.For Nylander, who had eight goals and 20 points in 21 games with Modo this season, the biggest adjustment will be the smaller ice surface.Its been good. Getting into it. Getting used to the time difference and everything so its good, he said. It felt like you had more time out there (on the big ice) so it was good. It was different,, but now Im back here and already half adjusted to the ice.ddddddddddddFor me, its just the first time when you get on the North American ice its a bit different, but then after maybe 2-3 days, youre used to it so it doesnt really take that much time to adjust to.Nylander will have to adjust to how and where handles the puck. At the world juniors, playing against his own age group, the 18-year-old was able to cut through the middle of the ice at high speeds and not get hit. That will change in the AHL.I think thats one of the aspects of his game that we want him to improve upon, said Dubas. I think at the world juniors you see he does put himself in positions with the puck where he gets run at and hit a lot. Its not going to take long to take some hits from men where hes going to know not to do it again.Loov, a teammate of Nylanders for parts of three seasons in Sweden, said the teenager will have to make adjustments.On the ice, its a totally different game here. Its more about positioning. Not running around so much in the defensive zone, said Loov, 22, who has 11 points and a plus-5 rating in 38 games this season. It was a big adjustment, but Im working on it.He also had some words of advice for his countryman.Dont hold on to the puck too much cause the guys easily close gaps, thats the biggest thing, Loov said. Heads up because people can run over him, because hes not the biggest guy so heads up and move your feet.Off the ice, Loov is happy to have someone around who laughs at his jokes.Hes a little bit younger than me, you can notice that, Loov said. Hes not that mature, but hes just 18. Hes funny, he likes my jokes, thats the best thing. We just play video games as usual. Then we hang out with other Swedes. Going for dinner. Went to the movies the other day (American Sniper). It was OK. Some of the guys thought it was a really good movie, but nah, just OK.Nylander has added motivation to succeed in North America after watching his good friend and Czech native David Pastrnak get recalled by the Boston Bruins following the world juniors. Pastrnak registered four goals and an assist in seven games prior to the NHL all-star break.The work hes put in, he deserves to be there, said Nylander. Were really close buddies back home so I mean seeing him score makes me happy and inspires me to keep working and hopefully one day Ill get the chance. Even if its not this year, maybe next year. Thats your goal.
