THE BARON

JD's pride of authorship with his draft picks, otherwise Mims who I had high hopes for wold be prep team. I think we all see now why he fell. We thought this could be a great value pick, but there were obvious reasons that other GMs passed.

For the time being, it's an F.

Considering the 2020 draft class, he gets a solid F. 2021 draft class is an unknown for now. It could vindicate or condemn.

Time well tell. Thus far, not looking good. AVT and Wilson could tip the scale in JD's favor. At the moment, I just hope Wilson survives it. True, the line may get better with time, but does the QB have time ??? I saw his bead bounce off the turf last week due to horrible blocking. That could have been a concussion right there. A few of those and it is career.

Not sure myself. Considering contract, all there is to do is hope it gets better. I'm not calling for his head because he's going to be onboard until at least 2024. Just pointing out that it has been a letdown thus far based on his draft and fa results

His resume is undeniable. I'd feel a lot better if his results with drafting for the Jets looked better. Agree it can take time, but the offensive line should be looking a lot better at this point. Along with a poor line,, JD didn't even hit on any skill position players yet. If none of his 2021 draft picks work out this season, what will that mean for 2022 ?

HAHAHA... Love it. Smiling from ear to ear. Love Gus Johnson. HOF sports media manpower. Perhaps the GOAT.

It was a lazy post on my part. I understand the significance of the distinction. Are you on board with the larger point ??? They are JD draft picks that are not on the field and contributing regardless of said distinction.

Adding here.... I had Cashman and Lawson listed on IR before the season started. I figured as did many that they would not make it past game 1 of the regular season in one piece

Yes. Incorrectly referred to Davis & Mann as practice squad. I stand corrected. From the Jets official site. Regardless, they are not on filed contributing. Add Becton as well to IR even though I did not incorrectly refer to him as practice squad OL Mekhi Becton - Reserve/Injured LB Blake Cashman - Reserve/Injured OL Cameron Clark - Reserve/Injured DL Vinny Curry - Reserve/NFI S Ashtyn Davis - Reserve/Injured OL Parker Ferguson - Reserve/Injured DB Saquan Hampton - Reserve/PUP S Lamarcus Joyner - Reserve/Injured DL Carl Lawson - Reserve/Injured OL Alex Lewis - Reserve/Le

another great pick from the 2020 draft by JD

It rains on all teams. There are excuses and there are excuses. I'm not going to get personal in this forum regarding my own professional performance and rating. Not the place for it and you would likely accuse me of being a braggart.

Becton and Mimms are the lesser part of the issue. EVERYONE including JD agreed that the oline should come first and he was advertised as the o-line guru. The Jets offensive line is one of the worst if not the worst in the league right now. That is inexcusable. You have back-up quality players at three positions, a LT that may be a washout and a new guard that we have seen nothing of yet.

That might be a valid point or it may be BS. I don't know if the restrictions were such that it deprived the GM's of information and access to prospects in a way that would make a big difference in their ability to make sound decisions. What I do know is that other GMs stuck gold in the same draft. So, I'd say it is a lame excuse

The Jets offensive line gets the MetLife house ketchup with this Sunday's pregame meal.

What JD draft pick or FA move is working out ? 2020 class was a disaster 2020: Becton - Not working out/injured and may never work out. 2020: Mims - looks to be in the doghouse and has underwhelmed. 2020: Davis - practice squad 2020: Zuniga - Wasted pick and with good interior lineman on the board to boot. Hated this pick. 2020: Perine - Not much here so far. 2020: Captain Morgan - Ugh 2020: Hall - Could be a good pick. 2020: Mann - practice squad

The Eagles had success when he was part of the organization. That is a matter of record. But that credit may not not have been his portion. They may have had success because of him or in spite of him or somewhere in between those two. We don't know. What we do know is that few if any of his players are panning out. With two off seasons, we should see a quality offensive line as a minimum. What we see is a mess.

Douglas is already a failure as a GM with regard to drafting and FA. But, I agree... Still, little else to do but enjoy the ride through the swamp until it becomes sensible to fire JD considering contract.

I don't see that we need another two years to judge JD's results at drafting and FA. They have been horrible.

I dig fully. Love it when things are more colorful when watching a game. I'd pay $50 per game if Gus Johnson would call the Jets games. At least I know I'd have fun even if the Jets suck.

Best call ever... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6BgnqAFWA8

I was holding out hope and was doing my best to be an optimistic fan. Then I saw the line perform and the ball carriers in action. It is not just a matter of gelling or getting used to the system or making adjustments. The manpower on the line is poor. I also want to say I was strongly against drafting Becton. I wanted an offensive line pick, but cautioned against Becton. The Jets are never going to be a quality organization until the team ownership changed hands and provided the new owner is a capable administrator. From that comes a successful GM, HC and sustained talent o

Considering what we saw from the offensive line that JD fielded, the "silver lining" is going to be on the injury list in the not too hear future.

Spot on. If the "offensive line guru" has fielded the mess we saw last Sunday, you'd think he would have at least hit on a skill player or two. Their stable of ball carriers is embarrassingly bad. Given his past experiences, especially with the Eagles, I was very hopeful that the manpower would improve. The results we are seeing look very bad. He has not done any better in the draft than Mr. Coffee.

agree. the blocking scheme they are using is not a good fit for the talent, or lack of talent that they have for the line, especially "big ticket" once he gets back
