Stomach turning.

[joewilly12]

Everyone wonders why we haven't sniffed the playoffs since 2010 and won a Super Bowl since 1969. 

[slimjasi]

Crazy how many guys are out of the league. 

Interestingly, that last draft isn't THAT bad. 

[fullblast]

That 2017 list is wild

[Ken Schroy]

Hey I remember some of those guys. They all had such promise, then they sucked.

[joewilly12]

There are many members of this forum including myself who could have done a better job drafting than some of the GM's we've had. 

[pdxgreen]

Maccgnan draft picks...

NOT.ONE.TEAR.SHED!

[Beerfish]

Sin #1 - Making terrible draft picks.

Sin #2 - A bigger sin, total lack of positional value awareness and team building.

[Kolchak]

There aren't any jokes that can beat the original post.

I'd say it starts to look pretty bad when you consider that most of the guys, while on the roster, struggled to earn playing time on a 2 win team. Quinnen and Austin were the only starters, and Austin got benched by the end of the year. Quinnen is probably the only one who would crack the roster of even an 8-8 team.

I thought Hansen played last year and did ok for the Texans I believe. Did he get released in the off season?

[dbatesman]

Just wanted to 1.) remind everyone that every time Maccagnan turned in a card for some never-was like Jordan Leggett, a group of JN’s most distinguished smoothbrains would bray HELL YA BABBY WE FINALLY GOT A REAL GM, and 2.) say that those people should be forced to have EY’s post tattooed on their faces

Active for 5 games.  Released this offseason.

lol @ people mad at Douglas for not giving us a better roster in his 2nd year. Those 4 drafts should be the bulk of our roster. Douglas is starting from ground zero.

Then only way to have done that would be to have signed a bunch of dumb contracts.

Douglas has been far from perfect, but he continues to go about this the right way.

This thread could also have been about 'good music' or 'good sitcoms'

Screw off, I'm a Boomer. okay?

[Irish Jet]

Sort of a brutal reminded that picks =/= talent. Honestly you pretty much could have started at any year since Revis because it’s brutal for a while.

The next two drafts have to hit and hit in areas that matter. They will dictate the fate of this team for the next decade.

Pick 2.51 – Christian Hackenberg, QB, Penn State

He actually got three more drafts after this.

Worst pick in the history of the league bar none. There have been bigger busts but we’d have been as well forfeiting the pick and saving in the salary.

Max got rid of him when he started a thread comparing the Jets to a "crippled child."

Really one of the more vile things I've read on this board.

Edited to Add: I don't think I ever have seen, or will ever see again, Max just say, "**** you" to a poster.

I really don't think we're all that far away from the majority of them being off the team, if not entirely out of the league, aside from Quinnen.

well it seemed like every year the ny post (and maneesh) gave high marks to the jets for the free agents and draft picks.  i'm sure the espn clowns like greeney were also shoveling out heaps of praise.  and even when mac got hired the big thing was that he was a scout with the texans and knew players.  apparently it was all fake journalism.  and you know what?  for casual fans like myself this is what we mostly go on.
