We're back for the 49th pick of the 2014 Niners Nation Community Mock Draft. You can see previous picks below in the draft table. You can also follow the mock draft board through this story stream.
With the 49th pick of the 2014 NFL Draft, JMichael39 and the New York Jets select Pierre Desir, CB, Lindenwood. He also considered cornerbacks Stanley Jean Baptiste and Phillip Gaines. Here are his thoughts on the pick:
By selecting wide receiver in the first round the Jets passed on the position many believe is their greatest need, There pick in the second round will address that need with Pierre Desir.
This small school product out of Haiti is destined to become a starting corner in the NFL, and the Jets could use his services. The lack of straight line speed and competition are concerns, but he is a standout athlete in other areas and he was not overwhelmed at Senior Bowl practices.
Personally this is a favorite of mine in the 2nd-3rd round range, and Niners Nation tends to agree having him as the 6th rated cornerback. With this pick the Jets have also selected two prospects to compete for returner duties.
Trevor Woods: The Jets really need a cornerback after losing Antonio Cromartie, and Pierre Desir fits nicely into the Jets scheme. Desir will be able to play in man-coverage, which he excels in. While Desir is from a small school, he is more polished than others of his stature in the draft (Stanley Jean-Baptiste and Keith McGill). I love this pick by the Jets, he could be a difference maker in his rookie year.
Nick Chiamardas: Desir is the next in line of a recent waive of small school corners finding success in the NFL. The Lindenwood product possess an ideal frame with length and size coveted in NFL secondaries. Desir also appears to have sound technique and fluid movements when shadowing receivers. The Jets having lost both Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie in the last two off-seasons will be looking to add a player to provide depth while potentially earning a starting spot opposite last year's first round pick Dee Milliner. Desir could very well be that guy and could even develop into the teams best corner.
