ScarletKnight89 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 That's using the luxury of hindsight. I can go back and look at Joe Banner's drafts and pick apart any player he passed on that turned out to be a star as well and kill him for not making the pick. The real world doesn't work that way. Terrible argument by him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible rebuttal by him. Not only that but I think Macc has targeted Rosen since his freshman year.(maybe even Darnold, too) there was a reason he wanted to tank and he passed up on the QB’s last year. Rosen > Watson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Watson blew out his knee supposedly while jogging. His physical ability to hold up was a big knock on him coming out. Guess it was true. Who knows what his career will look like. And if the hype of this years QB class is legit, we may be in for an even bigger treat all because we were able to wait a year.

Patriot Killa Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 I like the Jets/Colts trade for both teams but it feels like a really good value for NYJ. Only giving up three 2s to go up for a QB is wild. Keeping the 2019 first is money. — Matt Miller (@nfldraftscout) March 17, 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRy56 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Watson played a few good games and got hurt..... so did RG3. If Rosen plays 5 good games next year but blows his ACL mid-year, do we think JetNation will think we're set at QB or that we screwed up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 We could do this with a lot of our drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 In hindsight, Watson would obviously have been a better pick, but anyone suggesting he was considered a can’t-miss talent is being revisionist. That said, drafting Adams there sucked, too. But, screw it, go get a quarterback that can put points on the board and everyone will forget everything.

RedBeardedSavage Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 A lot of us get negative about this team easily... but goddam it seems like everyone that doesn't bleed green is sh*tting on this trade, and you know what? F*** 'em. This was a good move by the Jets. If we draft Allen I may have spoken too soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villain The Foe Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 You can't change the past. What the guy wrote was correct, but that didnt happen. So if we get our guy this year the multiple 2nd round picks were worth it. Macc's back was to the wall and its good to see him make things happen instead of hoping things fell to him. What's done is done. Woody didnt fire him so what's the point of trying to make what he needed to do look bad because of what he didnt do last year? Baker Mayfield or Josh Rosen will be a Jet. Ill take that along with Jamal Adams, Teddy Bridgewater and 3 less 2nd round picks that probably would have been worthless for the jets given history. If Macc hits next month he'll be a legend. I dont like his track record and even im getting behind this right now because it was the correct thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 I see so many people sh*tting on it. Fans of other teams and analysts hate it and I can’t figure why. The main argument for them is “we spent too much.” You cant spend too much when you are taking a shot at your QB for the next 15 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FidelioJet Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 And a QB that played 7 games and may not play a full season in the NFL. People need to stop with the Watson - he's injury prone and until he proves otherwise it was a good move passing on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a franchise that hasn't had one in 45 years no price is too high. The Jets had to get into the top 3, and keeping next years 1 is the win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets0712 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Look at our track record on 2nd round picks and not giving up our 1 for next year. To take a shout at our franchise qb. Not knowing if he would be there at 6. Mccagnan finally grew some balls and didn't lay back.

Jetsplayer21 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Does Mac swab up with giants now ? And for what cost ? Part of my post article. What would that take? Well, according to the NFL Draft Value Chart, an unofficial guide assigning points to every pick, moving up from No. 3 to No. 2 should cost 582 points — the equivalent of a high second-round pick. The problem is the Jets sent their two second-round picks in this draft and their 2019 second-round pick to the Colts in order to move up three spots. Any deal would likely have to be the pick for a player. Perhaps the Giants look at Darron Lee, a speedy linebacker, as a good fit in their new defense and accept the 2016 first-round pick as compensation for swapping draft spots with the Jets.

HawkeyeJet Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 The same people who are sh*tting all over it are the same people who were about to crown the Bills for giving up WAY more to do it. It's all just noise. There is no right answer. To be fair, I personally have seen more analysts say they like it than vice versa. I don't care either way. I personally am a lot more excited about nex season and the next 5 seasons than I was yesterday. I'm not going to let Joe Banner or any other person trying to generate conversation change that.
