More Cowbell Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 2 hours ago, Sperm Edwards said: Pretty spot on. I’d give Austin an A+ so far, given how he’s already exceeded any expectations for a 7th round pick at a premium position, just by being a good starter for half of one season. But I’d take a little away from Edoga who is not a B- player. Only reason he even saw the field is due others’ train wrecks and injuries. So far he’s terrible. Sure there are obvious caveats that Williams can start to look like an A pick next year if he provides relentless QB pressure up the middle all year, making the lack of an edge rusher less of a factor (do we honestly care where the pressure comes from?) — but until then he’s a D pick, since we can get his rookie production from a mid-rounder or later in any draft. Apparently we do when it comes from a S. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Bless Austin seems like a nice pickup but he was benched for the last game and a half. He was replaced by Marcus Canaday without any noticeable change in result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kind of the opinionnif the S's responsibility is a TE or RB and they stay in to block, he should be rushing the QB. A lot of Jets fans don't seem to think that's the case.

On the saints, another rookie, Devonte Harris, looks electric on kickoffs and caught a bomb. Mccagnan’s drafts are all about slow, plodding offensive players. Saw Harris at D2, was even on the board postdraft suggesting he be signed as a FA. Guy set all kinds of records for D2 returns. In one game opposing team kicked it out of bounds on purpose rathe than letting him touch the ball. As in today's game thread game turned in part on a BS "blocking in the back" call after he had another great return. PS-got a line on a D2 great hands/gritty/white guy / possession receiver; can guarantee where ever Bellichick ends up he know the guy's name.

Popular Post Paradis Posted January 6, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 6, 2020 The grade is F automatically. No right up needed. We took our 5th DT in the 1st round in what, 8 years?, despite resigning Henry Anderson and drafting 2 DTs last year. He doubled down when he took Polite... a guy who actually left the Combine mid way through because he was setting records... the worst measurable records that is. Unmitigated disaster. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the worst? Ugh...dude never got how to build a roster. In fact, the dude looks like the kid in high school who only wanted to pass a class with a 70. Just enough not to fail, or in our case, just enough not to get fired. Eventually, time exposed him as a guy who had zero clue how to build a complementary roster. Finally lucks into a possible franchise QB and has no idea how to surround him with talent in which to grow. All his picks require the rosiest of glasses with the hope of hitting a home run. How many of the picks do you expect will sign a second contract with the Jets? Austin, maybe he can develop. Same with Edoga. Pure dumpster fire material. FTR...I'm actually holding out hope QW can "mature" but truth be known, its more hope than logic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetscode1 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 FWIW I just read Stypulkoski's column here link. He mentioned Kyle Phillips who he wanted to include in his draft rating. Sad that the undrafted Kyle Phillips will most likely be the best contributor to the Jets roster from Macc's last draft. Combine this with Robby Anderson who was the second best player "undrafted" from his 2016 draft (I'd take Jordan Jenkins over him) tell us us a lot about Macc draft acumen. Charlie Casserly sucks donkey balls! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Harper Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Ok I’ll play.. 1st Round: C, Quinnen Williams He’s a high ceiling one year phenom who plays a non-impactful, non-premium position. He was picked at #3 and while he has a ton of room to grow, so far the immediate returns have not been worth the slot he was picked at...not that it probably would anyway being he’s a DT. Kyle Phillips, Fatty, Shepard, ect all especially proved the value of the position by leading the NFL’s best rush defense as a group of UDFA’s and later round picks. 2nd round: F, Jachai Polite Utter disaster. 3rd Round: C-, Chuma Edoga very up and down during his snaps as a starter. Have low effort on multiple occasions and nearly got Sam killed in the process. Had a few decent games before getting hurt. 4th Round: D, Trevon Wesco Was OK in very limited action but clearly never will have the wiggle needed to be any kind of concern for defense in the passing game. Ryan Griffin’s emergence/extension defeats the purpose of drafting Wesco. Wesco was drafted to block, understood on that level, but, he was meant to be the #2 to Chris Herndon. Ryan Griffin has now cemented himself into that role for at least next year... leaving Wesco has a 4th round reserve (3rd string) who may have to come in for 3-4 snaps a game to help block. 5th Round: B, Blake Cashman B for the spot he he was picked at. He made his presence felt right off the bat in TC and held it through the season until he was injured. If he can stay healthy, he has a future on this team. Good 5th round selection. 6th Round: B+, Bless Austin Could be an A if he continues his solid play into next year. Very impressive to see him come back from IR with no training camp or preseason reps and cover as well as he did. He hadn’t been in a real game since college but he steps onto a NFL field like it’s nothing and competes game in and game out for the majority of his time back. Again, really impressive 2019 turn in from Bless. I hope he can be a reliable #2 CB. He has the size and athleticism. Most of all, 2019 showed us that he isn’t lost at ALL. The speed of the NFL was never an issue for Bless. Clearly. Overall 2019 draft grade: C-A bit picky, I know, but we didn’t have a second round pick.

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 appreciate the players drafted as Jets except for the wasted 3rd round pick, he sucks lol It's not about the players drafted, it's about the missed opportunities to support Sam after betting the farm on him that makes Mac's last draft his worst and that's saying something - "a redundant pick and a mash unit" did nothing to help the potential franchise QB - the lack of thought or a plan that makes it the worst draft We just watched several rookies made big impacts in the games played this weekend, names like Bradbury and Metcalf and other players who were on many Jets fans draft lists and Mac missed all of them - horrible draft and it got him fired, which was the best outcome from the draft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn’t CJ so much better than Woody though? I liked his stance on kneeling, he doesn’t pretend he’s not a plutocrat with no idea. He’s actually trying to learn imo. Woody has always tried to pretend he was some savvy NYC business savant but all he ever had was his last name and his inherited money. CJ signed off on the Darnold trade. He handled the Anthem take a knee stiff well. And most importantly he realized he needed to get real football guys in here who know all the stuff he doesn’t and he greatly increased the salaries and positions to fill out the front office and met all Joe Douglas’ demands. CJ > Leon Hess > Woody i know I know not saying much but he’s the best owner we’ve ever had ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Nope, CJ is as bad if not worse than Woody from the past off season alone. The object of the game is to win, he's a nice guy fine he is also as bad or worse than woody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
