Dude became an instant starter and contributor at the strong side- and he's only going to improve. Lee struggled mightily, Jenkins had a sophomore slump but you're reaching big time with Jordan. That's not good enough! We're Jets fans here, if they don't make an immediate impact on the first day of the season, they're a bust and time to move on. If they make the Pro Bowl in their first year then we'll be ok with keeping them arounds, but one off year and we'll trade them for a 6th rounder afterwards.

Gholston might have had more impact there than at OLB, but that's only because he set the bar so low at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A real treat. I try to sit by guys who 100% are 100% aligned with me. They should have assigned seating for dark siders vs. sunny siders vs. just plain antogonists.

Beerfish Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 9 hours ago, varjet said: Lee was a copy cat of Deone Buchanon and Ryan Shazier, among others. On paper it was a credible pick. i think the issue is what type of football he is. Vilma appeared to have trouble playing one of the ILB positions, and then thrived as a MLB (not WLB) in the Saints system. Although it is said that you need 3 years to evaluate a draft, that is to see the lower picks. For Lee, this is his year. They better have hope he was shazier because Lee is nothing like buchanon. Big safeties with good instincts can actually cover and attack as opposed to a fast linebacker that can run but can't cover. If the Jets truly wanted a Buchanon as has been stated they should have drafted a safety to covert into a small LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snell41 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 You ever get stuck sitting next to the wackjob at the bar who thinks "da Jets got a shot this year"? It's the worst sh*t in the ******* world. They say sh*t like, "You know that kid from Tex--whatshisname--Hackerman? He's good. I didn't like that Geno Smith, though" then he gets quiet and says something like "black quarterbacks--ehhhhhhhhh" And then you're just trying to eat your nachos and he wants to reminisce about that time he did some coke with Rich Miano once. And then the game goes on and he's screaming about how we should have traded a first rounder for Colt McCoy. Much better! You still got it in you thank goodness. I can handle the Jets sucking, hell they've just about always sucked. Uninspired TomShane posts....... well that just sucks the life out of everything.Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What hipster joints are you guys watching games at? At the Jets Fan Club in Raleigh, they just drink themselves into oblivion and occasionally mutter a few profanities at the screen.
