You can’t fix stupid. No reason to drive wasted for any reason, especially with Uber, cabs, team driver services etc.

Samwise. Taking the ring to Mt. Doom to destroy Bill Belichick and save Middle Earth(Jet Nation). I’m a lord of the rings fan so I’m sure everyone else hates this. He will be Samwise to me regardless.

We may end up having a pretty solid practice squad between WR,TE,OL and even QB if the Hack goes there. I don’t think other teams will really want any of our guys too much so they should all be safe there and maybe actually develope.

Well this explains a lot about Mac’s decision process on draft day: There were two elementary school-aged kids. Maccagnan sat down next to them and told them he was taking Darnold, what did they think? After voicing their approval, they got fist bumps from the Jets GM. The jets front office hierarchy has Mac asking children for final approval on draft picks.

Whoops, said “tiles” instead of “times”. I am literally tiling my shower right now so maybe that explains it.

I’d rather have 4 #2 caliber wideouts than a true #1 and #2 combo 10 tiles out of 10, especially in a West cost offense. The mismatches and inability of the opposing defensive coordinator to gameplan for “one guy” alone is a huge advantage. Just my opinion.

But seriously you make good points. I just needed a reason to use that Rex GIF.

Sanchez!?!?

Maybe Mac is on to something. The combination of zone blocking scheme and college o-lineman coming out so raw could be the way to go for the future of offensive lines. Even if it takes longer to develop rookies, the concern is that few prospects have been taken to build a pipeline of pro ready lineman. I think we can all agree that regardless of the reason, we should have taken at least a few more higher rated prospects over the last 4 years.

They seem better at looking into vets rather than rookies. Maybe there is just more information available in NFL circles and the Jets do well here. Nah, I’d rather bash the jets and not give them any credit.

Great point. I hope you didn’t jinx it.

This is the main thing that I’ve been hung up on with Mac. He’s drafted at least 6 “older” players. If college isn’t developing players NFL ready and there are a lack of OTAs, at least draft the younger guys and develope them properly. Not break habits that they already have since they are already middle aged.

I wonder what players on other teams will be available via trade now that their potential replacements were drafted. Mac seems to be pretty good at getting value in these type of trades. Or like I said earlier, take on a bad contract of a guy that still has potential and redo the deal if he has a decent year.

What would really impress me is if Mac can turn unused cap space into draft picks by taking on a few bad contracts. Some of those once high end players may return to form as an added bonus and we would be in the drivers seat for extending/redoing their original contract instead of dumping them. We just have so much space and no one to resign due to abysmal drafting over the years. If he can lock up some of our guys that deserve it, sign quality free agents AND flip cap space for picks, I’d be estatic.

This draft seems pretty weak. There may be plenty of trades today of late round picks for vets between other teams. I wonder if we will at least move Petty and maybe Carpenter today for a few picks.
