oatmeal Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I literally posted on this the minute it was posted, we have to fire this rat bastard before he totally breaks Zach. He went into a season with a WC with NO NFL LEVEL tight end, LET THAT SINK IN Fans really think this is the guy who will turn this team around when he is terrible in the draft and even worst in free agency ? This GM has the talent to identify JAGs and roll players not studs, and his only redeeming quality is trades (trading away the little talent we have) 2 thumbs down ? ? for this fraud GM, robbing the Johnsons blind 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd give him and Saleh long term deals to make sure they don't get away and to keep the Johnson family as far away from football decisions as possible.

This GM has the talent to identify JAGs and roll players not studs, and his only redeeming quality is trades (trading away the little talent we have) 2 thumbs down ? ? for this fraud GM, robbing the Johnsons blind I think the jury is still out on JD but I think a reasonable defense of him can be made for the past 2 years. The team was a disaster when he got here. Last year he got us a brand new QB and drafted offense with his first 4 picks. The year prior he drafted an OL and WR in the 1st 2 rounds. In other words, he is trying to build the offense. However, there are only so many draft picks and you don't want to go down the wrong road in FA and get tied up with a bad contract for years. This is absolutely the year that the talent level should go up though. This will be the year we'll see what JD is made of. I think it's reasonable to say that this offseason is going to be "make-or-break" for JD. I mean, I do agree that it's pathetic that this franchise never takes a big step forward (like the Bengals did last year after having the #1 OA pick 2 years prior). After all of our bad years and top draft picks we still have holes all over the place and are a 4 win team. No Jet fan is happy about that. But in theory, we've got a GM in here now who is planning on building the team according to his vision. We've suffered through 2 years of house cleaning. Now it's time to see progress. Not saying we're going to be a contender this year but we need to take real strides. If we don't then we might very well be on to the next GM in short order. A lot of this is going to fall on ZW of course. I'm on the fence on the guy but I'm glad he gave us some reason to have hope at the end of the year. He definitely looked more confident the last few games. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Ghost Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 We find out a lot about Joe Douglas tomorrow when the FA period begins. We have space, and a bunch of front loaded contracts that were purposely designed by him to expire next year. There isn’t a player who’ll be available we can’t afford. Let’s see what he does.

If Douglas doesn't get a few more wins before September, he should be fired/s. It's the offseason and he's still here. He will be be here at least through next January. So to call for him to be fired is ridiculously futile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
