20andOut

Was he just using the Panthers, Packers, and Bears as well?

NFL Offensive Coordinator

I love how Manish can Troll this whole board

Sounds like more potstirring BS from Mehta. Secret cameras that everyone knew about

Its amazing how everyone here thinks everyone says what they mean and is totally honest. People freaking out when JD says nice things about anyone associated with Jets. It is called diplomacy. He is saying the things he has to say. Did you expect him to say "I hate Gase" "We dumped Jamal because he was an As--ole" etc..... Grow up.

You can not believe a word Frencessa says, especially when it comes to him talking about himself. He is a legend in his own mind.

You should recheck your bottle of vicodin, pretty sure you will find it says only one pill at a time.

Jamal thinks twitter is the real world. sad

There were a ton of injuries around the league today. Don't blame the turf (which is a shared Jets/Giants issue btw), more likely the lack of proler conditioning from abbreviated camp and no pre season

90% of what is going on right now is theater. The expression i always use is "the dog and pony show" Kids schools are now doing temp check on every kid coming into building even though it is pretty much universally accepted that kids, when they do get exposed are almost always asymptomatic, no fever!

Joe Douglas Is the Perfect Blend for What the New York Jets Have Needed for a Decade Joe Douglas' offseason a success New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas' offseason a success Vo Kristian Dyer Sep 6, 2020 It is go-time for general manager Joe Douglas. Now, the rubber meets the road. It has been nothing short of a tremendous offseason for Douglas and the Jets. Nearly every deficiency from last year – and there were many – were addressed by Douglas in a smart, shrewd way. There is no guarantee that the moves, whether all or in part, will work out. But at least there is a plan and a purpose to how this roster was built. The offensive line, the biggest issue to emerge from last season, was undoubtedly a huge question mark throughout all of 2019. Nearly all the struggles of the offense from the limited impact of running back Le’Veon Bell to quarterback Sam Darnold’s struggles in the first half of the year came down to the play of the line. It was a unit that was among the worst in football a year ago if not the worst. Douglas went out and made four solid additions to the line, three of which involved savvy, under the radar free agents and a fourth was a substantial investment in left tackle Mekhi Becton, selected in the first round of April’s NFL Draft. The line should be improved. As should the group of wide receivers who, despite lacking depth at the unit, should be improved over a season ago. Breshad Perriman, a free agent signing, closed out 2019 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with three games where he topped 100 receiving yards. He is a replacement for the speedy Robby Anderson, who left in free agency. Perriman has faster straight-line speed than Anderson and similar if not better production. Then there is the addition of Denzel Mims, a second round pick with attributes that project to him being an impact player with the Jets. And while the unit needs greater depth, the wide receivers reflect a second positional group where Douglas upgraded. It is impressive, especially considering that this is his first full offseason with the organization. The same can be said on the other side of the ball where cornerback is deeper as is the linebackers room. And while difficult decisions were made, such as trading All-Pro Jamal Adams, Douglas did this with the future of the franchise in mind. He landed a safety in Bradley McDougald who helped the team in the immediate while also getting two first round picks and a third round pick to help further the rebuilding process. For years since the departure of Mike Tannenbaum, the Jets have struggled to find a football mind with a clear vision for the future. Tannenbaum built the great teams of 2009 and 2010 with a strong core that he drafted, a group that was augmented with free agents. In John Idzik, the Jets had a general manager who seemed more interested in clearing cap space and shopping for castoffs then ever having the courage to spend this capital in upgrading the roster. His successor, Mike Maccagnan, whiffed repeatedly in the draft and repeatedly handed out free agent contracts to players who underperformed. Now in Douglas, there is a different approach. For Douglas in fact is proving to be a ninja of the NFL. He is stealthily improving the roster while creating flexibility moving the forward. In free agency, he did not go after the big names, instead finding under the radar types with upside and potential. He didn’t tie-up the Jets to long-term deals or cap sucking contracts. Instead like Perriman, he signed players with something to prove to one-year contracts and deals that gave the Jets maximum flexibility to continue their rebuild if the player didn’t pan out. And in here is the brilliance of Douglas. Consider the NFL Draft, where he went the ‘safe’ route in Becton, a dominant left tackle at Louisville and Mims, a player with great production at Baylor in a tough Big XII. But several of his later picks in the draft represented risks. Risks with big upside. Third round pick Ashtyn Davis is fast and a rising safety who still is raw, having been a track star who walked onto the football team at Cal. Jabari Zuniga, another third round pick, was projected as a top 50 pick in the draft but an ankle injury cut his season short. Fifth round pick Bryce Hall, a cornerback out of Virginia, was another second round pick projection this time last season but he too had an ankle injury that cut short his season. That’s a lot of ifs. If Davis can develop…if Zuniga and Hall can stay healthy… All represent risks. All represent huge upside and potential. But like he did in free agency, Douglas rolled the dice on these picks in a calculated and measured way. It wasn’t reckless. He didn’t take a huge leap for any one player early in the draft, instead going with the solid selections of Becton and Mims. Yet in a part of the draft that is often a crap shoot, Douglas projected that had certain players not been hurt, their draft value would be much higher. And here is the genius that Douglas has shown so far, a blending of different mentalities where he has found an ideal balance. He recognized the pressing issues and deficiencies of this team, in particular on offense, and he provided instant upgrades at five if not six spots on the offensive side of the ball. But he did so while maintaining this team’s flexibility moving forward if things don’t work out. The Jets have been waiting a decade for this pragmatic, practical approach to team building. From a general manager in Idzik who was seemingly afraid to be bold to Maccagnan who always seemed to be playing with a hot hand, the Jets never had that balance. Douglas, lurking in the shadows and waiting for the right opportunity, has seemingly found that much-needed balance. Just like any good ninja. And, perhaps most importantly, it sets the Jets up for 2021 where they can be big spenders in free agency, a process that should complete the rebuild and have the team pointed back to the playoffs once again.

Are there any other sources you could use rather than give mehta the clicks

Why havent the Jets spent big on free agents to "go for it"? Two major effects of Covid 19 1-Nobody has any idea how or even if this season is going to play out. 2-Nobody has any idea what next years salary cap is going to look like after all the lost revenue from this year.

Gase Derangement Syndrome is about as wide spread as Trump Derangement Syndrome and both are much more widespread than covid19

Will they get production that comes anywhere near matching his pricetag?

Instead of trying to put a team in London NFL should expand north to Toronto and Vancouver

"settle" for career like D'brick??????

sounds like a typical first week of camp

MSN? really?

Knowing ESPN is always kissing the Patriots A-- and hating on the Jets I am curious how they ranked the Pats with no Brady, and now no Hightower, Chung, Cannon etc

Beningo is like half the posters on JN. Pessimistic about every player in a Jets uniform and optimistic about every player not in a Jets uniform

Keep in mind that any team gaining cap money this year will be losing it on out years. Makes it harder to get out from bad contracts.

Enlightened? Who exactly qualifies as "enlightened" You mean like the "woke" people that think free speech covers throwing molotov cocktails/

Prejudice and racist are "kinda alike' as i said, that in both cases you are making wide judgements about the person based on one small piece of information such as skin color, or how much money they, or their parents have.

Sounds kind of prejudiced. You know, kinda the same as being racist.
