TMAC Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Even if the Jets lose every game this year there are no guarantees that: 1) they get the number one pick (49ers are horrible, too); 2) the best QB prospects will declare for the NFL draft; 3) the Jets will have the right management in place to make the best or even a good pick; 4) the QB selected will ultimately become a quality NFL QB. Jet fans who are rooting for losses now may be very, very disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All true, but with this roster and coaching staff this year, the best hope to advance a Super Bowl in our lifetimes would be to lose every game. That gives us a very high pick in each round of a good draft, and the will to not only fire MaccBowles, but to change the entire structure of the team. If they can look credible and win a few games, Chris may think he is turning it around. He can't think that-it is currently hopeless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Killa Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 9ers are the only team that scares me because even if the colts do worse they don't have the balls to let Luck go after that HUGE contract. Plus..why would they? Sure he is hurt but he's Luck. Jags are too good to get the first pick. It's really just the 9ers...can't let Kyle Shanahan get his hands on Darnold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pcola Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I disagree. One thing is certainly guaranteed. When you keep signing the worst available free agent to be your starting QB, you won't compete for a playoff spot, let alone a SB. I for an relieved that the front office stopped insulting the fans intelligence by running the same line of bull crap out there and expect us to digest it. what the Jets have done this year is completely engage the entire fan base with both college and Pro football. And IMO, it's incredibly exciting watching Darnold, Rosen, Mayfield, etc. knowing we are likely to get one of them. Mad for the pro game, I am excited watching Adams, Maye, and the rest of the youngsters. Now if Bowles can stop playing Jag vets over guys like Stewart, Petty, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southtown24th Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 And the 49ers are the team I fear the most in terms of Sammy D having a "better" option than the Jets come draft time. If they are close enough to the top, could he orchestrate something to stay in CA? Would that make him think SF is an option? I will tell you, for a kid from San Clemente, CA, SF is a much better, more welcome option than NYC. That's the scary part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hael Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Next season what's absolutely critical is not paying high priced free agents and depleting our war chest. I prefer making a few signings of young players, projects for instance and then using the funds to really pay our own young stars. People like Enunwa. Front load the contracts. That way in two or three years we will have low hit salary cap star players when we are actually competitive. its just important to take it slow, and don't shoot for the moon like the overly optimistic 2015 spend a thon.

There's no guarantee that we'll ever win the Superbowl again, so, like, why even hope for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
