As rare as brock

If douglas drafts a guy solely based on what he’s going to do in 2024 then he shouldn’t be the gm. It’s a huge problem. Then trade your entire draft for the 5 pick

He’s the insurance most likely. Or, they use him and fuaga together. The jets have the oldest tackle tandem and the oldest qb in the entire league, and statistics say these guys are more likely to miss games than a 23 yr old.

Yes, but he’s the best run blocker in the draft, and what is going to win them games is having a dominant run game.

Draft fuaga, he’s the best fit for the team and then go and get a good wr in late round 2. You’re set on offense.

Last 4 seasons he’s played 2, 11, 4 and 13 games. This averages out to half a season each full season.

He injured his Achilles on a play where the OL made a real stupid non block, i think he wants better protection.

Watch the jets trade back and take the tackle and then use 2 3rds on defense.

I think trading back a few spots and taking a tackle, and then trading up from the 3rd round to get Roman wilson or franklin is a best case outcome.

I disagree. If he thinks he’s gonna get fired he should take the tackle and then trade into round 2 for a good wr and have the best of both worlds. That’s the best approach.

Challenges with drafting bowers are that you really need to have a qb and oc who are going to maximize this guy. If you have a guy like BTJ you can throw to him 6 times and he can catch 2 but one could be a 76 yd td. With bowers he’s a volume guy and georgia, a top 4 program while he was there, built an offense around this guy. It’s a testament to him, but if they also had a nabers it’s different. On the jets, they already have 2 volume guys in breece and garrett and Conklin was decent. If Lazard decides he wants to play with rodgers again then bowers seems destined to be complimentary guy on this offense. IMO i think douglas is done if he does not address OT with a real option. I think it’s fuaga or fautanu.

I’d like to think Douglass has realized he can’t pin his job of gm of the nyj on 2 old tackles and mitchell and warren. Mitchell shouldn’t be in the nfl he’s way too weak.

But when you really look at the risks taken to max out this year, they’re mostly at tackle. The defense is mostly set. You’re obviously hoping rodgers doesn’t tear something the first series. But are the jets more at risk of not making the playoffs b/c they don’t have a good TE or b/c they have the oldest tackles in the nfl protecting the oldest qb in the nfl?

Yes, bowers negates the need for a slot wr. He still makes the offense better, but the jets need a good tackle more.

Fashanu has the tiny hands. I like fautanu.
