Jet Nut Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 4 hours ago, dcJet said: That's exactly the thing. We haven't seen a replay of him using explosion and quickness to deek defenders. We've seen plenty from other rookies in his class - claypool, jefferson, CeeDee, etal. The question is why haven't we seen it? Is Gase not letting him run anything other than fades and digs? Is he running other routes but not getting the ball or not getting open? We don't know. Meanwhile posters here are declaring him a WR1. My take is - I haven't seen it yet. For one hes played 2 or 3 games, on top of that you need to see him go long? Thats the separation thats important. 3 for 71 or 6 for 150 isnt good? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's when guys turn the corner like Cooper Kupp did. We put Allen Robinson next to him & maybe Pitts? Mims will be a PITA for a 2nd CB to deal with at his size. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets0712 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I frickin hated Paul Maguire and I remember that. I was pissed and every game after he said that, he would double down and be more right. Grrrrrrr. I will never ever forget that. I was 10. I remember turning to my dad and we both started screaming at the tv..Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy was an absolute steal where we got him. I thought JD's trade down was ludicrous and I began to think we were in for a lot more of the same BS with our GM. Then he took Mims at #59. I don't know if I can call him Zelly though. I hope you don't mind lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On July 31, 2019, Thomas signed a five-year, $100 million contract extension with $61 million guaranteed with the Saints. I'd imagine it'll take too many trade assets to New Orleans in order to receive Michael Thomas from them? So I think I'd much rather look to strike on an Allen Robinson, JuJu Smith-Schustet or Chris Godwin come Free Agency; while keeping all of our trade capital in order to build around (hopefully) Trevor Lawrence moving forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This upcoming draft could be a corner changer for the Jets. Lawrence or Fields? Pitts, Moore or Devante Smith, Etienne or Harris, Creed Humprey or Josh Myers, and who knows what we could get for Sam? The Choices above will land within our 1st three picks somewhere. Then you have whatever we get for Sam plus 2 threes including pick #65. * Dream trade for Sam is Marshon Lattimore & the Saints 3rd round pick. Saves the Saints 10.5 million & they are way over the cap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you want to make your deal, not honor someone elses if its advantageous. But we dont know who will be available, we dont know who is looking to move on from which WR yet other than we know its been reported that the Saints would move Thomas.

And the evidence is only moving toward that direction, not away from it. Put it this way. Mims is practically the only reason to enjoy watching this team. Becton too to a lesser extent but only because he's Oline. If Davis, Hall and Zuniga play for the rest of the year, then that too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny watching all the Douglas critics have to backtrack now that we're seeing the capabilities of his first draft class. Used to be, for some, that the entire draft outside of Becton was a bust. The more we see guys on the field, the more we see that simply isn't true at all.
