Maxman Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 From @NYJEts Darron Lee just turned 23. The doubters have made him the man he is today. I think they are just being negative here for no reason. Darron Lee has many people who believe in him. Each week the running back and tight end from the other team rave about him.

Rangers9 Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 He is getting better. And could be what the Jets wanted him to be when they selected him. Making plays, can tackle, and fast enough to cover skill position players. They drafted him for his speed and overall ability as a football player. He's improved.

So there's hope he will grow another few inches and elevate from smurfdom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just to small to play inside. It's a joke they stick him thrte. He's constantly getting run over. It's like he's trying to get in a train car in grand central in rush hour as the passengers depart. And he's just to short to be covering these giant TE's nowadays. He has no chance other than to jump up on their backs. Improved? A bit but nowhere nearly warrants being taken with our 1st pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 He made a very nice play on the strip fumble last game, unfortunately for every big play like that there are a half dozen terrible plays. He cannot play head on without getting blowup even by TEs and rbs. He can't cover at all, and no being close to making a play 5 times a game puts him in Kyle wilson territory. He is not a a rush end, can't set the edge or rush the passer. He also seems to b a bit of a nutjob from some of the off season stuff. In any case I am fully confident that Todd bowles will put him in great position to succeed with the abilities he does have......not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetster Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Can college players improve in the NFL? Of course. Mo isn't helping him out getting pushed 3 yards off the ball. Watch Seattle play & see how how their Dlineman hold the point of attack to keep Olineman off of their LBs. Our LBs are weak as it is, Jenkins needs to step up to & the Browns, yes, the 1-15 Browns traded us our other starting LB for Pryor,lol. I mean seriously take one moment & think about that. TEAM GAME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEAM GAME. This definitely plays a factor. The Jets have one of if not the worst front 7’s in the league so it’s not like he gets the opportunity other LBers do but that said he has the worst instincts I’ve ever seen in a Football player. If he has to think about a play for a split second, he’s lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 So, I watched about 20 seconds of this video. What exactly are we feeling sorry for him about? Because some people said he couldn’t do it? Lmfao He played for OSU and was overdrafted in the 1st round and I should admire his ability to overcome “adversity”?

He's very athletic, but still to small for ILB in a 3-4. He will shoot the occasional gap, but most of the time will get man handled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we should draft guys that will fit the system. Or we should change the D to suit the personal we've drafted? Guy was 4-3 OLB that's what he is, he isn't a 3-4 ILB.

Guilhermezmc point is valid, he is a 4-3 OLB. So if the personal fit a 4-3, more than 3-4 then change it. At Least when you have a 4 man front play him at OLB.

Explain me why we shouldn't change the defense to a 4-3. They drafted the guy to play the Deonne Buchanon role. They shouldn't change the D to a 4-3 because you can't play 5+ DBs with 4 linemen and 3 LBs. The team probably plays nickel 75% of the time anyway. The LBs beyond Lee are not particularly fast. Kony Ealy is probably a good fit for 4-3 DE - so I guess they could go Ealy, Wilkerson, McClendon and Williams, but I don't see this as resolving any issue other than their ridiculous inability to draft a good 3-4 EDGE that can put up some pressure. IT doesn't really resolve that at all, but at least they can pretend "they meant to do that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear to god I have the blueprint to never ever get fired from running the Jets. Every year we change the depth chart on the official site from 4-3 positions to 3-4 positions and we fire the offensive coordinator. Then you can do whatever you want. Now I just have to get the gig. I think changing my username to Personnel Guy Miss Lonelyhearts should seal the fan vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
