Guilhermezmc 1,358 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 If JD passes up on Fields and he has a great rookie season while we are stuck with Ginger Gorilla, its going to be JD job on the line and I don't think he'll risk his job at someone Else Draft pick 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Irish Jet 236,791 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 11 minutes ago, Jetster said: All I hear from college fan boys is, LOOK AT THE COMPETITION THEY PLAY! And then you get to a game like last Friday & Fields lights up a Clemson team with Jesus at QB & all you get now is excuses like, WELL ITS JUST ONE GAME! REMEMBER THE ALAMO, I MEAN INDIANA &NORTHWESTERN! AND CLEMSONS DEFENSE SUCKS! Can’t wait to read this board after the CFC. On a side note...Josh Myers? Yes please! How awesome to have your Center from College? Slide McGovern over, pick Slater with Seattle’s pick. Oline fini! Stop yelling. I dislike Fields simply because I don't like what I see on the field - Too erratic with his velocity, so many balls float on him. Questionable decision making, especially as it pertains to his running. Internal clock is all over the place, as are his reactions in the pocket. Extremely similar to Sam in that regard. It's his detractors who act like one game erases all his legitimate red flags, a game where he had all day to throw to wide open WR's. He executed well but it was made easy for him. I think he's going to be trash, especially here. I could be wrong. I have been before. It's a guessing game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
k-met57 2,462 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 1 minute ago, Jetster said: I just don’t understand why any Jet fan wouldn’t want this kid? To me, he reminds me of a faster smarter more accurate McNabb. Plus he definitely meshes with the coaching style of like 5 guys that should be in the running as our next head coach. He has traits, I’m not saying he’ll be as good, but he has traits of the QBs most successful in the league right now. i think he could be good on a team thats already built, like the ravens were. we are prob 2 years away from competing IF we hit on a QB. If you put this kid out there, he makes a few bad reads, makes a few bad throws...things are going to unravel quickly. I think drafting another QB with this roster is chasing fools gold...draft a julio jones level receiver, roll with Darnold...you kill 2 birds with 1 stone...see if Darnold can give you something with a team around him, and if he sucks...guess what...you are picking top 5 next year anyway. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Jets have a ton of cap space and a cache of draft picks , 6 in the 1st 3 rounds . Even if Sam plays poorly they are not likely to draft in the top 5 next year. Then you are leveraging future draft capital to fix a problem you had a prime opportunity to fix now 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, by that rational, Vince Young was a good pick? Can only play whats in front of you.. This is not how you judge a QB prospect for the NFL. The question is how will Fields play when he is not surrounded by the best talent in the game. What skills has he shown that would translate to the NFL and inferior talent on his side of the ball and superior talent on the defense he is playing. Can he execute while under constant duress/pressure? Can he fit the ball into tight windows with blanket man coverage? Can he put the offense on his back when his run game is not there for the day? Can he lead a comeback? Show me examples of these skills in Justin Fields' career and we can really evaluate him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bitonti 42,750 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Fields likely has broken ribs that doesn't heal in a week. Maybe they postpone the game because of Ohio State's outbreak a week but the Fields we saw last week was diagnosed with an acute toradol deficiency and thrown back to the wolves they didn't even Xray him at halftime, it's like they didn't want to know for those who are Pro fields you're watching this dude's career get shorter every time the Ohio State doctors look away the Jets need a Joe Willy but this dude could need a whole year off after what's happening right now, i.e. redshirt rookie year it was a heroic effort, but I'd be surprised to see another Hero performance, not without another week to rest those bones (and even then) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chrebetfan80 1,372 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I think the smart evaluators on here, which lets be realistic are not perfect in any way, are realistic about Fields and dont get caught up in the numbers or singular games. I think Fields is a very very good prospect, however, when I evaluate the player there are a lot of questions I come away with that give me pause with drafting him at 2 overall to a franchise that has had a hard time developing good qb talent. I wont get into a full evaluation of Fields, I've said my piece about him to some members here I talk to about such things, but in the short version i just think Fields to me requires more to be successful than others in this draft. I could be dead wrong, but as of right now having seen what I have that is the feeling I get. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

QB1 1,350 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Josh Allen is playing like a man possessed. He is the most talented QB in the NFL. Right now he is easily a top 5 QB. His confidence is ridiculous.

Defense Wins Championships 2,413 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 7 TDs vs. Bama makes him the #1 overall pick; because it's a what have you done for me lately type of sport.
