I'm sorry the Jets failed you Sam. I'm a Panthers fan as a second team now.

Josh Allen changed from a child to a man before our eyes.

Sam Darnold started a child and stayed a child.  He's no Alpha.

Ce la vie, I'm sad but a decision was made and if the front office feel it's the right one I will accept it.

On to the next chapter now.

It's a good thing most of us could care less what "NFL Insiders" think since they are paid talking heads whose job it is to get people like you riled up.

Do you put Rhule into the "truly great NFL Head Coaches" category? I certainly don't.

Then keep him

wwtxh Carolina flip him next year for more value 

 

first off, carolina needs to pick up his 5th year option to even have the ability to trade him next year (unless they slap the franchise tag on him after this year).

and even then, it's not very likely he gets traded, let alone for more.  if he's good, carolina will keep him.  if he's the same old sam, or even a modestly improved version, no one is giving up a ton for him either on the last year of his contract (if 5th year picked up) or on a 1-year franchise tag salary.

I miss him already

No.  Now its Team Fields v Team Wilson.

[RVAJet815]

So Joe has duplicates in the first 2 rounds next year. This is bad...why?

[Jetty]

So we got Sam for a future top 40 pick? Sounds like a great deal.

Delighted with that haul. Far better than he deserves.

Nothing gets coaches and GM's fired quicker than poor QB play.  However people want to divvy up the blame, the fact that people lose their jobs over it is an incontrovertible truth.  

Meanwhile, Todd Bowles just got a Super Bowl ring.  He's at the very least a solid DC.  

[Grandy]

Panthers are betting a lot on him. He's their guy.

[munchmemory]

Heartfelt thanks to the "Sleeping Giant" (literally), Joe Douglas.   Here's hoping this evening's brisket sandwich platters are perfectly prepared and succulent.  Enjoy, muchacho.

Yet another F'ing jersey in my closet that I have to remove the last name in order to wear it again ...

Whatever side of the fence you were on, it’s hard for anyone to complain about a 2,4 and 6 for one of the worst rated QBs with a 5th year option looming. For anyone saying JD got fleeced, just stop. And this is coming from an avid Sam supporter. It’s a nice haul.

This honestly is the best part of the trade. Couldn’t take four more weeks of the Wilson vs Trade Back And Roll With Sweet Sammy ™️ dreck.

[Skeptable]

Robby Anderson must be super happy.... HAHAHA

He basically got the equivalent to 3rd, 5th and 6th this year. 

True but if Carolina is not that good the value could be really high next year. It's a decent trade. Also you don't want too many contracts ending at the same time so balancing this year and next is smart. Hopefully 3 years from now Zach is the highest paid player (on an extension like Mahome) in NFL history

[Joe W. Namath]

Joe Douglas has removed the diseases of adam gase and sam darnold from this franchise.

He should have a statue outside the stadium.

Good call. If you ignore all of the picks that we got for Sam we basically gave him away for NOTHING!

Have you seen what we do with our late round picks... a 2nd and a 4th is nothing! I wouldve rathered Carolinas second this year

Committing to Sam for another season after a 2 win season and the second overall pick just couldnt happen. The Jets had to leave this first round with a QB and a trade down probably wouldn’t have gotten them one of the big 5.

You're right.  Draft picks are dumb.  We should trade them all away.  Strong post.

Small minds miss the point, as expected

why

Because Douglas is probably going to stick and pick at 2.  In 2020, he stayed at 11 and took Becton.  In round 2, he traded down.  

And the 23rd pick is a good range to move down from.  Teams are always looking to move up in the back part of the 1st.  Either from a later 1st or from the early 2nd round.  Sometimes for a QB.  

Douglas will probably look to continue to load up on 2022 picks out of this draft, given all the COVID uncertainty for this year's draft class.  He's going to move down at least once.  Might as well move down from 23.

I would never miss an opportunity to bash Douglas. 

This is a ridiculous return for the one of the league’s worst QB’s. I’m still expecting to hear that the 2nd in 2022 is conditional.

I'm not going to defend Sam's play, it was unquestionably sub-par.

With that said, Bowles was amongst the worst Head Coaches I've ever seen, and Gase is, hands down, the single worst NFL Coach, period.  

We'll see what the future brings.  Will Sam be better in CAR than Wilson is here?  Guess we'll find out.

Hopefully Saleh is finally a decent HEad Coach, and not just another in a long list of lolworthy Jets Coaches.

2nd team? What? Fraud.

I've tried to get this garbage organization out of my life for years.  Unfortunately it won't happen, but I wish Darnold well more than any other player to ever leave the Jets.  He was treated like crap here.
