He's coming from a team who's doing everything they can to protect their franchise QB. I don't know anything about him, but that should have been our only objective this offseason after hitting the lotto on Sam. Buffalo didn't have half the cash we did this offseason and look what they did at O-line. I'm just sitting here praying the guy who's going to be snapping the ball to Sam every down this year isn't on the roster yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be possible for us to hire the NFL equivalent of Lou Lamoriello? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another dart throw as far as I’m concerned.

We could always go try to throw a bunch of money at Ozzie Newsome if GM experience is what you're looking for. But I doubt he'd take our call. Well given he retired from a team he was with most of his life.... So hire a guy who worked with Ozzie for 16 years, then was there with Chicago and gets a lot of credit for his work with building amSB winner in Philly. Hardly beggars who can't be choosers here.

You belong here ONLY if you believe that the media are out to get us! That's the only reason every (and I mean every!) writer has crucified Chris Johnson and Emperor Gase! They hate the Jets (yes, including Greenie who is a life-long Jets fan)! They are jealous of the Jets! We are here to praise the Emperor, not bury him!

joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Don't know about you guys, but this seems like a pretty strong body of work to me. Sixteen years with the Ravens in and of itself is pretty impressive. Pretty sure he wasn't getting coffee for the boss for all of those years. Experience in three different NFL franchises, in an executive capacity is a pretty good prerequisite for a first time General Manager. Surely more qualified than Maccagnan, Idzik, or Peyton Manning, for sure. Joe Douglas, who was hired by the Eagles on May 11, 2016, enters his third season as vice president of player personnel.Douglas played an integral role in helping construct the team’s Super Bowl LII-winning roster. The Eagles captured the first Super Bowl title in franchise history with a 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots on February 4, 2018. Prior to joining the Eagles, Douglas spent the 2015 season as the director of college scouting for the Chicago Bears after working in the Baltimore Ravens’ personnel department for 16 years (2000-15). 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaton Beaver Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I am confused Wayne, you keep posting all these negative posts, but you don't even get Douglas's age right? Do you ever know what you are talking about or do you just spout out nonsense to get real Jet fans riled? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be that this organization buttfumble every single time and many of us are becoming cynical. I remember when many here thought that Macc was going to be our savior. Me, unlike some here, these wannabes have to prove themselves first before they get any praise especially these young candidates who hasn’t accomplished anything other riding on someone else car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why the Maras brought in Gettleman-a proven commodity. If you want to see Jets fandom melt like the wicked witch when Dorothy throws that bucket of water on her, bring in Gettleman. He's managed to so screw up the Giants that they have literally tanked. But they have a nice running back for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just have to tighten our seat belts. Gase & Co. may not love the players that Jet fans love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
