[Astros = why Rodger destroyed the tapes]

Because they are. 

A number of their players should have received Pete Rose-style lifetime bans.

The Astros were let off VERY easy, all things considered.

Kyes kthey kare.  

Yes.  Protecting the Shield, like a good businessman.

Ok, couple of follow ups 

Do you think the cheating the astros and pats* did was similar, same or totally different?

Do you think astros or pats* got off easier? I think my point (before the virus really started) was the astros were getting killed but the pats* seem to have gotten off easier... 

[What about the Players?]

Challenge is it will probably be a decade or more before it's "100% safe for everyone" 

At some point life has to move on - what level of "safe" seems to be a personal point of debate and will change over time - especially with allergy and flu seasons coming soon - sneeze and go directly to jail

 

 

[Brady's replacement identified]

pats* are tanking for Trevor - part of the BB retirement plan

[Are the Jets sending a message to Darnold with the Morgan pick?]

seems like leadership, locker room guy with big arm for camp and practices - once offense that both can run, but Sam 10x better 

[Bryce Hall CB]

Clark and Hall picks have me excited again - the Florida picks were questionable but looks like we turned the corner

[Jets were only supposed to have 1 pick in the 4th rd]

Agree, just feels like trying to get too cute playing with house money when it's always your money...

a slow RB, QB that does not run, and an OT with below average quickness laterally and on pulls to play in a Zone scheme?

In common, seems to be leadership and drive so maybe part of culture change - time will tell 

Still very happy with draft overall 

add KJ Hill and all is well

[Jets trade Leo for a Safety Yes. A Safety]

Davis will be a very good player for the Jets - if anything the criticism could be that he was selected too soon considering higher value options - unlike Mimms the board did not fall well for the Jets between these picks, and Zuniga was possibly the mistake (JD first panic move?);

68. New York Jets from Giants - Ashtyn Davis, S, California

69. Seattle Seahawks from Panthers - Damien Lewis, G, LSU

70. Miami Dolphins - Brandon Jones, S, Texas

71. Baltimore Ravens from Patriots, Chargers - Justin Madubuike, DT, Texas A&M

72. Arizona Cardinals - Josh Jones, OT, Houston

73. Jacksonville Jaguars - Davon Hamilton, DT, Ohio State

74. New Orleans Saints from Browns - Zack Baun, LB, Wisconsin

75. Indianapolis Colts - Jonah Jackson, G, Ohio State

76. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Ke’Shawn Vaughn, RB, Vanderbilt

77. Denver Broncos - Michael Ojemudia, CB, Iowa

78. Atlanta Falcons - Matt Hennsessy, C, Temple

79. New York Jets - Jabari Zuniga, DE, Florida (have to hope Greg Williams wanted this pick)

83. Denver Broncos from Steelers - Lloyd Cushenberry, C, LSU

 

[Players Remaining For Saturday]

Prince Tega Wanogho T AUBURN

Tyler Biadasz C WISCONSIN

KJ Hill WR OSU

Thad Moss TE LSU

 

[Day two draft grade]

I liked the Davis pick but it was too early (got cute) and the next 10 picks probably left a big hole in the Jets draft board and more importantly lost both Centers (either one would have solidified the OL)

Selecting anyone near polite (fat gator) was probably a mistake but can't expect perfection - JD was great overall and can still add impact players like WR's DP Jones and KJ Hill - Is Moss kid still out there?

Give JD credit for checking boxes for needs and the trade down and Mimms picks was amazing - A/B+

[****OFFICIAL 2020 NFL DRAFT DAY TWO THREAD OF OPTIMISM WHERE WE DON’T DISCUSS THE STREET VALUE OF BOX SAFETIES THREAD***]

lots of talent went off the board from 69-78 - it was like a hit list of players you would have liked the Jets to draft - JD is do a great job filling needs but may have been too cute with the giants pick...

59 and 101 supposedly 

looks this way from draft tracker

[QW a year later]

one year wonder, not a position of need or high value at #3 - wish him the best and hope is becomes a force next year but it was a horrible pick and Mac got worse after that 

I feel so much better this year, night and day difference

[Grade the selection of Mekhi Becton at #11]

Most of us wanted and the Jets needed to draft one of the top 4 OT's - Job Done = A - I would have been happy with Wirfs too but bottom line is JD is on the board 

first draft I can remember where a player of need was there and the Jets made the pick (not SOJ)

[Mekhi Becton]

6 minutes ago, HawkeyeJet said:

Becton has a lot of work to do, but also has a lot to work with.  

People can wring their hands over their own personal grades of him(or Wirfs) but in reality, he's probably the best OL on the team immediately.  

I think people see/read he's not a finished project and assume that means he's ALL projection.  I don't think that's the case. He could be very good without tons of additional refining.  He could be elite with a decent amount of refining.

Interesting insight to Joe's draft strategy - the safe pick was Thomas, the highest Ceiling is Becton

might have assumed others (Wirfs) would be off the board but stuck to his pick 

[Mekhi Becton]

Welcome to the Jets! Great pick finally Sam might have a few seconds to throw the ball

“I swear I'm the most dominant tackle in this class…I'll open the holes, (Le'Veon Bell) just run behind me. You wanna score TDs? Run behind me.” - Mekhi Becton

[JN: insufferable bastards.... Becton pick]

I am thrilled with the pick and Bell should be even happier

"I love being the biggest offensive lineman. I love intimidating guys."

"It's just fun seeing a man on the ground every play and then going to jump on him. So that's what I love about the game."

 

[What if the Jets DON'T draft an OT in the 1st 3 rounds?]

I will be done because Sam will bust if the Jets DON'T draft an OT in the 1st 3 rounds

 

Jets have to help Sam or give up on the game of Football

[How will the players be ready for Opening Day???]

With the new CBA they are not missing much physical practice and many of them have a better gym (weight room) in their house then the local public gym, plus video meetings work fine (except when it's time to get some fk'n snacks)
