I don't think Mike Tannenbaum's interested in another running back.
Although Jets running back situation is a is in a state of flux with Leon Washington returning from compound fracture, rookie Shonn Greene learning to hold onto the football and a young 32-year old Thomas Jones looking for a new contract, I don't think running back is their greatest need.
Jets have the #1 rushing offense, largely due to play of Fanaca, Nick Mangold and D'Brickashaw Ferguson and Tony Richardson and Coach Callahan's zone blocking schemes.
Unless Clemson RB, C.J. Spiller drops in their lap (Projected in the top 10-15), Jets will look for Cornerback to play opposite [Darrell] Revis Island or 3-4 Defensive End they are hoping Vernon Gholston would be, could be.
Team needs include offensive and defensive line and safety. Maybe Wide Receiver, but I'm thinking Jets will resign Braylon Edwards if he doesn't over-price himself. Also, an Inside Linebacker opposite David Harris will tighten up the gut.

Joe McKnight was drafted in the fourth round of the 2010 NFL Draft by the Jets. For more information check out sportsmedia101.com and for more Jets information follow the link on the website to the jets101 site.
Their first three picks were cornerback Kyle Wilson, offensive tackle Vladimir Ducasse, and running back Joe McKnight.
They start out the draft with the Number 7 pick, but there is a good deal of speculation that it could be traded. They then have their normal 2nd and 3rd round picks with another in the 3rd from the Jets/Braylon Edwards trade. Then the 4th round is one pick. The 5th round has 3, theirs, the Jets (Braylon), and the Bucs (Kellen Winslow). Then the 6th and 7th rounds are normal. Round it off with a compensatory pick at the end and that is their 11 2010 Draft Selections.
