Another example that fuels my theory that a majority of media folks do a perfunctory job of watching film and studying the game. No one who's watched extended film of Sam's play believes he's in the same stratosphere as Watson.

Pretty sure there are at least two big types of peddlers of misinformation out there. The draftniks who are sticking with their USC eval of Sam and haven't watched anything the last three years, and the talking heads who don't watch Jets games at all because we've been a garbage team.

Imo this is all Jimmy Sexton, Sam and JDs agent. imo he’s influencing the narrative on Sam because this is contract year

Absolutely.

Nothing more frustrating than hearing a talking head who probably watched 15 NYJ snaps all season tell us that Watson is a marginal upgrade over Darnold.

Watson is a very good QB. Im not saying he's not. But, how many. Of you would be calling Becton a bust if he led the league in holding penalties the last 4 years. Watson has been in near the top in the league in QB's most sacked. Sacks, kill drives, just like penalties do. Not a small point.

So you too have accepted that Watson is not coming here and have decided to talk him down as I have? Smart. We are ahead of the game. Watson sucks. I bet he chews his hard candies and swallows his gum. Bum.

Your being sarcastic. It' laughable that people don't want to discuss anything that doesn't fit their own narrative. Oh yea, anybody who doesn't agree with a trade for him, including analysts have an agenda they're own, or are misinformed

Don't align yourself with genot.  He still thinks Darnold is good.

I strongly suggest remaining neutral, and not align yourself with a member of the Warsaw pact. JetsFan80, good poster, still pay attention. to him, misstates my view on Darnold. I think he has a chance to live up,(or come close to living uo), to his draft status, playing in the right system, with proper coaching. I think with his progress was halted when a new system and coaching staff was installed after his rookie year. If Bates was still there the last two years we would have seen a more confident QB.
