What a slam dunk fest that one was eh? Even guys like Clemens and Coleman were decent reserves for a while. I seriously struggle to see why the hell that can't be the case almost every year. Front end studs sprinkled with role players and reserves. Yeah its a crap shoot, but luck favors the well prepared. I could have absolutely, without question built a better team than the Jets have done outside of 2006, 2007. Let's hope the 2020 class is the beginning of that being the case. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your 2nd part of the bolded statement is true because the first part is false. It's not a crapshoot. It's more like Poker. Yeah, a good bit of luck is involved. But there's a reason a lot of the same players seem to end up at the final table all the time. If it was all or even mostly just luck, then there would be no "good poker players", just simply lucky poker players. And we all know that's not the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look no further than all the great players drafted by the Ravens ever since Ozzie Newsome was named GM in 1996. When you consider how often they drafted at the back end of rounds, it's simply staggering: Jonathan Ogden (1996, pick 1.4) Ray Lewis (1996, 1.26) Ed Reed (2002, pick 1.24) Terrell Suggs (2003, 1.10) Haloti Ngata (2006, 1.12) Marshal Yanda (2007, 3.86) Chris McAllister (1999, 1.10) Adalius Thomas (2000, 6.186) Jamie Sharper (1997, 2.34) C.J. Mosley (2014, 1.17) Peter Boulware (1997, 1.4) Jamal Lewis (2000, 1.5) Joe Flacco (2008, 1.18) Ray Rice (2008, 2.55) Chris Chester (2006, 2.56) Say what you will about Flacco, but he had an incredible postseason run in 2012. Among that list of 15 players, 3 are HOFers (Ogden, Lewis, Reed). Two of them coming from the 1st round of the same draft! Wow. That's the stuff of legends for an NFL GM. I imagine Suggs, Ngata, and Yanda will all end up in the HOF as well. 7 Pro Bowls and one 1st team All-Pro for Suggs, 5 Pro Bowls and two 1st Team All-Pros for Ngata, 8 Pro Bowls and two 1st Team All-Pros for Yanda. Guys with that many accolades plus a Super Bowl ring don't tend to miss out on the HOF. 6 HOFers over an 11-year period. 6! Incredible. And that isn't all or mostly just luck.

I know he's not perfect, nobody is, but from what I've seen so far (with a couple of mistakes) here and there, I think he has shown that he can handle the job. It's worth it to give him a chance, and for CJ and WJ to give him that chance and let him take over all decisions related to the NY JETS at this time with both the coach and Hymie reporting to him. That will tell me all I need to know about him and whether he can fire AG, even though it was AG who got him the job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section314 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Really, in any draft , your 1st and 2nd rd picks should be immediate starters, and be major impact players, if not good/great. The remaining rounds should be to get starter/depth guys, players who can play in this league. Just looking at our drafts for years, most of them did not come close to any of these goals. So far, this draft is bucking the recent trend. Hopefully, Clark and Hall get on the field soon, too. It's early, but maybe, just maybe, this will be the draft we will point to in a few years as the one that turned things around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s so funny how Jet fans already think Davis is a bust. Playing safety in college, especially free safety, the transition is really hard. The athletes your lining up against & the schemes, routes, pick plays, it takes time & repetition to learn. I think Maye gets resigned & Davis ends up being pretty damn good, he’s got speed, can tackle, works hard, and he’s smart. Certain positions take time. Bless Austin will be a good #2. Let’s pray Hall is a sleeper! That will ease the burden a bit in the draft & let JD find some pass rushers, that’s priority #1 in this new NFL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is we had people running this organization that truly didn't understand the basic fundamentals of building a quality roster in today's NFL. Look what ignoring the Oline for 9 years has done to this team! Look at teams with injuries at Oline (Dallas!). Look at their skill positions & they'll be picking in the top of the draft in 2021. Joe Douglas believes in strong trench play. That's a positive right there. Secondly & he's repeated it ad nauseum, speed kills or BURSTS PIPES was his quote. At least with JD & his philosophy on how to build a team we all agree with. Now it's just that small matter of picking the right players. I know things seem a bit hopeless, but we still have a bunch of guys to watch over these last 8 games. Huff?, Zuninga? Hall? Clark? Anyone of these young guys has a chance to stick in the NFL & contribute. Strengthening the interior of the line is much easier than finding a LT who we nailed & sans injury might be called the best young LT in football. Creed Humphey would be a target along with 1 free agent signing like Thuney, could elevate the Oline to elite status very quickly. You slide McGovern over to Guard, let him fight it out with Clark & may the best man win & Bam, you've got depth & McGovern as your backup Center. You put that Oline in front of TL or Fields, along with adding an Allen Robinson, Mims in his 2nd year, Crowder, a new TE? Ettiene or Harris with Perine as the #2, your off & running quickly in JDs 2nd year! And your talking about still having 7 more draft picks based on a Sam Darnold trade. Plus 9 more picks in 2022, with 2 firsts & who knows what JD can do trading back with his at one of his two 3rd round spots in 2021. Having both a lot of free agent dollars plus a lot of draft picks in the next 2 drafts, with an actual football guy here is exciting as hell. I'm going to watch these young guys develop the last 8 games, cheer late losing FG misses knowing that the only thing that matters this year is finding a few more starters for next year so we can target more needs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you, I don't think we're as far away as most think. But I think you have to commit to building the offense with all premium resources. If we draft a QB 1...then go on to take OL and WR's with our next few picks. Sign the best T and WR in FA you can. the trick is to do EVERYTHING in your power to support and help build our new young QB. If you take this 1 for offense, 1 for defense approach - at best we become a mediocre team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have more than just two: We potentially have a serviceable RB, WR, depth on both lines, and a starting caliber CB. But I get the sentiment. It probably looks something like this: QB, WR1, WR depth, RB1, LG, C, EDGE x 2, CB1, Safety 1. Then, it gets to be depth EVERYWHERE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remember, if JD makes this 2021 draft about offense at the top, i.e. A draft like, TL or Field, Humphrey, Etienne or Harris, and still has 7 draft picks? He might start already thinking his 2022 draft might be the 1 he gets the stud game changing edge rusher. Or, this years 2nd if he sees a TJ Watt type player. Damn that guy is good!
