GreekJet Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Maybe he can, but if I was him I wouldn’t count on in. His inactivity leads me to question if he has the competitiveness to excel as an NFL GM. He picked his coach. Now is the time to spend his money and draft his QB while he still can. There are no friends is this business. Just ask John Idzik how a patient approach can backfire in this league. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 With as bad a roster as the 2020 NY Jets had I would have thought there would be a lot more free agent signings going on here. JD seems to be too laid back in the position to make any major improvements needed here. I hope i'm wrong. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandy Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 If it's with Darnold, no. If it's with a rookie, probably but it depends on their performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayzor Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Fans are definitely frustrated watching players they want signing elsewhere. Players that seem affordable. Maybe he’s saving up for bigger splashes? Hard to say but I’m sure he knows his job is on the line but he won’t be as desperate as the Patriots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantasy Island Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Why didn’t we trade for Center Rodney Hudson. Because somebody’s asleep. Hudson and 7th round pick for a 3rd round pick. Jesus wake up cue ball!!! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR I Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Let’s see, so, we had 17 players hit free agency today and we resigned 1 player, so that’s like 17-1 and that equals 16. Can someone check my math? I don’t have to tell you I’m a little tired up here and the Earth is getting pretty big in the window.

You would think he would have a “never again under my watch” mindset. Have you guys not listened to him from day1? Why is eveyone surprised? Joe has been preaching build through the draft from the very beginning. The top 2 teams in free agency spending from 2016-2021 is Jets and Jaguars. Both also have the worst records in the nfl during that stretch. Free agency is fools gold used by bad teams to shut up their fan bases. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Douglas is getting reamed for letting positions go un-addressed for two years running. The same holes we've had in our roster since his first day...are still holes in our roster. He's only slightly better than a GM who doubles down on safety the first two rounds of a draft when our young QB he doesn't want to give up on is Hackenberg. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSNY Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Many of the comments about Douglas being asleep are from posters that advocated for Q to be traded and stated he was a bust. Now there is no way Q gets traded. Let JD do his job and see what happens as I do have confidence in his approach to making the squad viable playoff contenders for the long term and very optimistic about his recent signings 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSNY Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 The team was be rift of talent before he got here Had to tear the whole thing down and start from ground up. The 7-9 record was against a schedule full of tomato cans masquerading as NFL teams. When they played a schedule with actual good teams with some continuity during this aberration of a season due to the extenuating circumstances the record was not going to be great. Didn’t think it was 2-14 bad ( more like 4-12 5-11 ) but was foreseeable. One draft and we want to railroad him out of town. Let’s give him a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
