If he trades out to #8, and the QB's are gone, then I am quite sure there would be a plan to trade down again and keep stockpiling, or grab one of the top receivers. Then, keep building a team. Run it back with Sam for a year. By the time he's done, I am sure he will have three 1sts next year. That would be ample supply of ammo to move up for one of Sam Howell, Kedon Slovis, Bo Nix, or whichever QB shows up large in 2021. Again......Chess not checkers. Chess, checkers, whatever you want to call it, thats a really poor strategy. If JD misses on a QB this year and then has to trade the picks he used to pass on Justin Fields to select Keedon Slovis next year, he should be removed from office ASAP. That’s not chess, that’s being a fool. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanShawn Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 On 3/11/2021 at 5:46 PM, JetBlue said: Jets will get up-close look at Trey Lance with 2021 NFL Draft intrigue Zero or one? You pick the more impressive number. If a quarterback is judged on wins and losses, there is no topping Trey Lance’s 17-0 record at North Dakota State. If victories belong to the team, one interception thrown on 318 career passes speaks to individual talent. When NFL scouts and executives evaluate college quarterbacks, two of the most important questions asked are: Is he a winner? Does he take care of the ball? Lance was perfect and nearly perfect in checking those respective boxes, and now he will showcase his other skills Friday at North Dakota State’s pro day – in front of a contingent that will include Jets general manager Joe Douglas. “Only 17 games as a starter is hard to get around and the level of competition was not great,” ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller told The Post. “But I thought he made everyone on the field better when he was out there. I love that about his game.” Lance is one of five quarterbacks who could be taken within the first 15 picks of the 2021 NFL Draft. He has been connected to the Falcons, Panthers, Broncos, 49ers and Patriots and could be a viable option for the Jets, especially if they trade back from No. 2. Outside of presumptive No. 1 pick Trevor Lawrence, Lance could be the most green, most athletic and have the highest long-term ceiling of the group. In other words, he requires the most projective scouting, patience and quality coaching. Jets general manager Joe Douglas will be among those attending NFL Draft prospect Trey Lance’s pro day on Friday. NCAA Photos via Getty Images “I could see Bill Belichick having a lot of fun with a guy like Trey Lance,” NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah said. “The only thing that would hold me back on that is I don’t know if he’s going to be ready to do that right away. But when you talk to the folks at North Dakota State, this kid is incredibly intelligent, which we know the Patriots have always placed a premium on.” Lance redshirted in 2018, won a FCS national championship in 2019 and played in one game in the fall before North Dakota State moved its football season to the spring. He entered the NFL Draft instead of returning to school and possibly becoming the No. 1 overall pick in 2022. SEE ALSO The lack of experience suggests his next team might have to install a “Lance Package” for specialized usage as a rookie. Lance is compared to Lamar Jackson by Miller and to Steve McNair by Jeremiah. “He’s not as fast as Lamar,” Miller said, “but if you think about how he could be used early on – deep-ball passing, use him as a runner and on underneath drag routes where he can extend the pocket and keep things open longer, I think he can excel in that way.” All eyes will be on Lance’s 40-yard dash time, which is expected to register in the elite 4.5-second range. Where Jackson runs with speed, Lance has power, like McNair. “He’d get hit by a linebacker at the 4-yard line and find his way into the end zone – and you see the same thing with Trey Lance,” Jeremiah said. “Both guys came from a lower level of competition, both guys were dominant at that level. You look at the power arms to be able to drive the football down the field. You look at guys that their teammates really, really rally around [them]. I just think there’s a lot of similarities between the two.” https://nypost.com/2021/03/11/jets-will-get-look-at-trey-lance-with-2021-nfl-draft-intrigue/ I am definitely intrigued by this kid; I am getting a "Josh Allen" vibe from him and not the bad one but the one were everyone thought he was too raw and not ready but acknowledged he had the highest ceiling of any quarterback in his draft class... If they decide to trade down, depending how far, he could be an option. Interestingly in the article he is compared to Steve McNair. I can only imagine how good McNair would be in this era of don't touch the quarterback receivers allowed to push off.... that sounds like there going to pick em 3rd overall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gangrene Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Pro Day Highlights from March 12th below, Daniel Jeremiah on commentary. Talk of a second Trey Lance Pro Day surfacing to accommodate the 49er's. Trey Lance is seen by some as long shot mystery candidate for Kyle Shanahan at 3. Matt Rhule, Joe Brady , George Paton (Broncos), Ryan Pace (Bears), Spielman (Vikings) Schneider (Seahawks) and Joe Douglas in attendance. Trey Lance pro day measurements 6' 3 7/8" 224lbs Played a total of 17 college games. Not a finished product compared to the other top four, TL, ZW, JF, MJ Powerful ball velocity, comparisons on pro day to Josh Allen. Fast paced pro day, aerobically fit, Jeremiah commented on absence of labored breathing in workout. Played in most pro style offense for those 17 games.
