Alka Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 .Quinnen Williams may turn out to be a generational player, as some have indicated, and Polite could turn out to be a bonafide steal of the draft. Even if none of the other draft choices work out well, these two would make Macc's legacy not a complete disaster. I'm on board with getting rid of Macc now, because although he has drafted some good players, I really feel that he is overall clueless and has at least drafted the top players well, with the exception of Darren Lee. Even Lee wasn't a "total bust". Even on the Offensive line, he did trade for a left guard that looks to be a great trade, even if he didn't do enough for the O line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Mac took some layups and this years' team will be competitive. I'll always be grateful he got us Sam Darnold. And QW should be an elite guy in the coming years, as will Jamal Adams. It's just outside of that some very Idzik'y drafting. I'm fine with the team this year and will be happy if we pull in the Eagles guy for GM moving forward who will hopefully build up the Oline around the young QB and start filling holes instead of dumping limited resources into the same positions over and over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Macc would have been skewered and would have been fired before this year even began. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darnold Schwarzenegger Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 This draft will be no different than his previous drafts. He will hit on his top 6 selection and everyone else will bust and be out of the league in 2 years. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Really have to hope that QW turns out to be better than Ed Oliver, especially with Oliver in the division. QW just felt like the prototypical Safe Maccagnan Pick there. Polite being on par with Allen would be huge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I do, however, love the confidence we give Maccagnan picks when picking high 1st round DL or 3rd round OLB’s. great recent returns. totally a reason to expect this. yes. the blow will have been rightfully softened!

Beerfish Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Perfect timing for Gase and what ever gase puppet they hire. If the team does well this year they can hog all the glory. If the team does badly for two years or so they ca blame mccagnan. Fans will fall for this as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with JiF. Mac made a trade in March to move to 3. As most teams do they had a good read that either Mayfield or Darnold would make it to the 3rd pick. By trading in March Mac actually paid less than he would have needed to 6 weeks later to make the move to 3 on draft night. Gase, hopefully, turns out to be the man, but his past is not "glowing with success". Outside of Manning falling in Denver's lap, he had a decent year with Ryan Tannehill once. Lets not act like Gase is anything but a Rex Ryan want to be..... and hell Rex as a DC was better than Gase as an OC....

But winning a Super Bowl with Sam Darnold would easily be checkmate for Adam Gase. Heck, only 3 coaches in the history of the NYJ have ever even gotten them to an AFCCG game. Let's give the dude a little time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but JiF’s point doesn’t really matter considering the point of the OP. Maccagnan’s draft picks don’t mean he deserves any type of praise, mention or f*ck given...even IF Gase hasn’t done a thing yet. What is JiF’s point in bringing up Gase besides to reiterate the same thing he’s been saying since we hired Adam Gase — he is unproven. That’s all fine and dandy but.. why? lol. That’s all I’m saying. Odd/unprovoked comment there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
