Time for Jets to scratch their seven-year offensive itch in draft

The NFL draft still is three months away, but it's never too soon to look into the crystal ball. Our question of the week focuses on the New York Jets and the offense-defense issue.

@RichCimini I know this isn't in the Jets vocabulary but can we PLEASE pick a offensive player in round 1? #jetsmail

@RichCimini: It's hard to believe, Mike, but the Jets haven't picked an offensive player since 2009, when the choice was Mark Sanchez. Since then, they've selected four defensive linemen, one linebacker and three defensive backs in the first round.
