Rookies especially are having problems. Some speculate it has to do from combine training wear and tear. 

and others speculate it has something to do with the historic global friggin pandemic 

but who can say? :)

 

there was no pro days this year how could they be over trained? 

The rookies are having problems because they are not NFL trained veterans and given all the interruptions this offseason why would anyone expect them to contribute? 

the draft isn't usually a way to solve one's current problems. It's a way to solve problems 2 to 3 seasons away 

that timeline isn't going to accelerate in a Covid year. these rookies are going to be raw and next year's rookies 2 years out of football with no CFB games might be even worse

that's why everyone signed their vets this offseason because the CFB pipeline is broken and there's no timeline on a repair

honest question is Sam Darnold better than Jameis Winston (and show your work) 

i feel like only Jets fans think Sam Darnold is any good. To the rest of the nation he's like the 26th out of 32 starting Qbs 

So all the QBs and other NFL commentators that like Sam or think “ Sam is the best QB in the last 3 classes” are Jet fans??

Imagine a two-TE set with Wesco lined up next to Becton on the left so the Jets show a power-running formation.....then BAM!  Playaction to Bell and Darnold hits Chris Herndon down the seam right over the head of a Safety cheating up because of the run threat.

This is a really interesting mix of size, speed and capability when you think of the Jets pieces at the offensive skill positions.

Looked like they had Kaufusi trying out as a TE, also a massive dude.

I heard Gore also told Darnold that he has the field vision of Johnny Unitas. Gore and Unitas were teammates in college. 

Also heard Gore mentioned to Darnold that he had the same "meticulous showering regimen" as Sid Luckman.  Seems Gore baby sat for a young Sid back in the day.

and he was a distant #3 on TB last year.

There are maybe 10 or a dozen Wrs in the NFL  that WOULD NOT BE #3 behind Evans and Godwin....

( Robby woulda been a #3 there...  Mims is being groomed as the #1...   Perriman is being given a cameo and expected to mentor somewhat...  imho)

Knowing how they operate, I'll try to fill in details of the media's
practice coverage:

- The WR's outside of Perriman and Crowder are unknown to them so
the fact that they aren't mentioning "how bad they look" or "how
many balls they dropped" are positive signs

- Gregg Williams goes "off script" throughout practice so the fact
that they aren't mentioning how "confused the offense looks" is
a good sign

- The fact that outside of how impressive Becton has looked they haven't
mentioned the OLine is a good sign.  Why?  Because everyone knows
that was the biggest weakness, if there was a hint of poor blocking or
confusion they would jump all over it 

- Becton must be putting on a clinic for them to notice and mention
an OLineman.  They never do that

My two cents

Let’s cut the media a break here. Of course they are going to be watching Becton. He is the teams first round pick!
