Popular Post chad2coles Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 There is no reason for Douglas to tell the world what he plans on doing and every reason to emphasize the value of his most valuable assets. Whether he’s keeping Darnold, drafting a qb, trading down, or going after Watson, he refused to say anything. There’s 60 days til the draft. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockeJET Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Pats, Pitt, Packers, Saints, KC, Seattle, Baltimore, Cleveland of new, Philly of old and some younger up and coming teams have all for the most part built through the draft. It’s how you have long term success. Obviously you need the QB. Once you have that, you don’t have to over pay in FA year in year out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post K Clue Posted March 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 Did I miss something, but when did Douglas cut any real talent that this team has? Also, as much I’d love the Jets to get Watson, they just can’t afford to give up all those draft picks the Texans would want for him, so I like how Joe Douglas is handling that situation. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibby Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 JD used last year to set up a big draft this year. Let’s be honest. It’s no big secret his first draft wasn’t great- wasn’t terrible. Big Ticket was an easy choice, but after that- meh you know the rest. I still have faith though. If he’s preaching through the draft ( which is the smart way to do it) He needs to hit big this year, and I think he will. We all want the answer to the million dollar question now- I get it! I’d love to know too. Tons of picks - go lay the foundation this year if you like the qb go get him. Not convinced- trade that #2 for a sh*t ton!

ScarletKnight89 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I mean, if you want to build a consistent winner you have to hit on your draft picks much more than you miss. Spending big in FA without having a core of good, controllable players generally gives you a small window and then you're usually bad again. JD does need to spend more in FA, and I can't imagine he won't this off season. If for nothing else than he needs to show that the team is getting better. Otherwise he'll find himself on the hot seat sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft is always the key but if there's ever a year where you need to nail FA it's this one with everyone cash strapped and the cap being what it is with COVID. We're the one eyed moron in the valley of the blind as far as money this year. We can pull off the type of deals that would have seemed impossible a year ago 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas has one draft under his belt and those players have played one season. Talk about a rush to judgment. I also never heard Douglas day Watson was not an option.

SAR I Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 22 hours ago, kevinc855 said: JD seems to only be interested in cutting talent. What else has he done to build this team? Amen. Preach it. It's like we hired someone from the Ravens and Eagles who knows how to gut a team and negotiate picks from hype playoff contenders and is afraid to actually make a decision and do something with them. Note to JN: We have been "rebuilding" since 2017. "Suck For Sam", remember? Douglas didn't launch the Jets rebuild, he inherited it mid-stream. Yet they give Gase 4 games and Douglas, what, 4 years? Give me a break. SAR I 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
