Phillyjet Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 So, let's turn to the QB workout that noone is talking about; the Jets will have at least one minicamp I believe before the draft, at which time they'll get a close look at Bridgewater. What if he lights it up? What if his work-out is better than they say from the 4 QBs? Does Saquon become a real option at 3? We're assuming that they are for real moving up for the QB, But Bridgewater is the wildcard. My gut is they are taking a QB regardless, but I think it is worth playing up the Bridgewater minicamp. If the Browns or the Gints think the Jets might actually take Barkley, then perhaps the Gints flinch or the Browns move up from 4 to get him. Leaving us 3 QBs to choose from. Am hoping we see a lot of articles speculating that the Jets may actually be considering Barkley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckkieB Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Mac would be hung from the rafters if he didn't select a QB at #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Teddy turns out to still be legit one thing we may be able to do is maybe get a mod rounder for him in the middle of the season? Providing our rookie QB is playing reasonable football.

k-met57 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 so we traded 3 second round picks to take a RB who has 20 carries in a game like 3 times last year? ok... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinc855 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Mac is taking a qb, he be tarred and feathered if he didn’t and everyone knows it. Our only hopes are giants taking Barkley, or a swap with giants. Otherwise it’s allen or mayfield which I’m ok with bu mr I prefer rosen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberjet Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Definitely a possibility. More importantly, Jets need to have others think that it is a possibility. If Browns and Giants go QB, the Browns will stay put if they think the Jets 'obviously' are taking a QB. However, if there is an inkling that the Jets may go RB after 2 QBs are taken 1&2 then the Browns may be interested in trading down one spot with the Jets to land Barkley. Jets could then recoup a draft pick in this years draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably won't work, as I agree that you don't sell the farm for a RB in this league anymore. RB's are used by committee nowadays, and on average, have shorter and more injury-plagued careers. So you go RB in rounds 3 or 4 nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJoTownsell1 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 There is zero chance we are taking Barkley. You can trade up to get a RB, but you don't overpay to do so. You only overpay to get a franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 if we still had a high second then maybe, but you can't trade up to #3 for a RB with no backup plan at QB, regardless of how good Teddy looks there is risk of injury until he plays well for a few full seasons I think it would be great to have Barkley on the Jets, especially since he is a fan but let's not forget the Buckeyes defense held him to about 50 yards in a very big game last year so it's not a "can't miss" selection... none of them are, upside of the QB is a game changer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberjet Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Another trade scenario. Jets trade with Denver particularly if Giants pick Barkley. The only danger that exists is Cleveland trading out of #4 spot with Buffalo, but I don't think that will happen. Who knows Mac may like all 4 QBs.

The fanbase isn't privy to the workout, and wouldn't be won over on Teddy until dec' 2018 & promise of playoffs -- Macc wouldn't make out of April. He dug himself this hole, and now he's buying large to get out. Right now, I don't care. Give me my Quarterback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
