In all seriousness though, I can’t think of any offensive players that have actually gotten better or developed in this system. And the players we’ve brought in that have had success elsewhere immediately turn bad. I’m not bashing Gase here, but there really seems to be something horribly flawed about his system/scheme. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will do this until we get it right! As an FSU fan Xavier is still to this day one of my All-Time favorite Seminole DBs amongst the likes of Antonio Cromartie, Jalen Ramsey and Derwin James who I've really enjoyed watching on Saturdays therefore the FSU fan in me would love to have him in Green and White as a Jet because I absolutely love his leadership ability on an NFL level so my heart is telling me yes, but my mind is telling me no; only because by the time 2021 comes around he'll then be 31 years old come next year and despite Pro Bowl seasons throughout 2016/2017/2019 etc just our luck he'll completely begin to break down right in front of our eyes immediately thereafter. Rhodes is way more talented than Trumaine/Desir ever were (combined) but something about a 31 year old FA CB is enough for me to say no. Speaking of FSU DB's the next great one on an NFL playing field is going to be Asante Samuel Jr. I love everything about this kid. Recruited out of a legendary H.S Football program down here in Florida (St. Thomas Aquinas) and has been lights out as an FSU Seminoles CB. As a program we've struggled as of late which I believe will drop his draft stock and instead of a sure fire 1st round lock I believe he'll fall into the 2nd round and if he's still available with the 1st pick of the 3rd round... I believe he's a no brainier. I'm really hoping he drops to us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didnt sign Desir with the expectation he'd be cutting him midseason. That's an asinine take. You sign them hoping they play there way into a 2nd contract like Poole did last year. His plan wasnt to swing and miss on everyone and go 0-16. He hasnt hit on anything yet, not a single solitary player. His FA have been a disaster.

I just love the heart and absolute fire that he plays with in comparison to Marvin Wilson who before his injury imo is super overrated. Aging 30 yo FA CBs like Trumaine and Desir have been boring for me I'm really looking forward to seeing what the young pups in Bless and especially Bryce Hall have to offer @ CB and if Asante Samuel Jr falls to the 1st pick of the 3rd round (I doubt it) I'd love to add him into the mixture of Bless/Hall.

Dcat Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 3 hours ago, Defense Wins Championships said: I'll admit and can't be too hard on JD with this one because I thought as a fan that Desir was going to become really good for us and I was absolutely tricked into falling for the hype and believing that he still had CB ability; due to his lockdown postseason performance against DeAndre Hopkins a couple of years ago. We may never find another #24 Darrelle Revis of his prime throughout the draft again, but after Trumaine and now Desir the days of signing 30 year old Free Agent CB's must come to an end. Hopefully Bless Austin and Bryce Hall can develop into very good homegrown drafted Jet CB's because both had Round 1 talent before college injuries... and if not we may need to draft CB's with both of our 3rd round picks this year along with a 2022 1st rounder @ CB too. Agreed. You can include the 2nd Revis signing in that futile effort to find another Revis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s so many examples of players that have thrived after Gase. But I think, more damning is that hardly any players have improved/developed in his system. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
