THE BARON Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 After Trevor Lawrence, I have Mac Jones rated as the second best QB prospect in the draft. I have a feeling he's going to wind up landing right in Belichick's lap. Would that not just be sooo much like the Jets and the Pats ??? The Jets take Zac Wilson at 2'nd overall and he's out of the league in four years. Mac Jones lands at the 15th spot with the Patriots, is out of the starting gate quickly and wins a Super Bowl before his rookie contract is up.

Watch people jump out of windows in fear Because you know, Wilson will be out of the league in 4 years. In fact whoever the Jets draft will be gone in 4 years. And whoever the Pats may get will star and will win a SB I'll take the bet, Jones doesnt go on to the pats and wins a SB before his rookie deal is up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you No matter what is going on around here we need to dream up scenarios where the Pats or whoever do it better. Every friggen player we dont take or have no interest in will become a Patriot. They have somewhere in the neighborhood of 150 players on their roster I believe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 We are getting the best QB in the draft. DNGAF if the Pats wind up with Fields as he has the highest bust potential in the draft. 49ers are taking Jones IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible, but I am really not all that concerned about who you have rated as the 2nd best QB prospect. Nor do I care who Mel Kiper has rated as the 2nd best QB prospect. And since the Pats drafted Brady, they have drafted 10 or so other QBs and none have come close to being anything special so it's not like they are QB talent gurus themselves.

It reeks of inferiority complex. It implies they'll always get the better of us. Worry about US, Fu*k everyone else. Worry about us. The Jets *have been* inferior. It is not a complex. The Pats *have* been superior. It is not a distortion. It has *nothing* to do with the fans. The Pats have a wise owner and the Jets don't. A ship sails in the mold of its master. After stints with Idzik and Mr. Coffee, my hope was that JD was a strong enough piece of manpower to both know what to do and to be able to keep Johnson out of his kitchen while he does it. For me, all hope of that being possible went up the spout when the Jets ownership/management allowed themselves to be maneuvered out of the first overall draft pick and Trevor Lawrence. That was indefensible. They even had the mayor of Jacksonville thanking the Jets on Twitter. It was a gut punch and a horrible let-down that I'm not going to get over. Especially as Trevor Lawrence and Wilson progress in their respective careers. I expect Lawrence to be the generational talent he is predicted to be. I expect Wilson to flame out. My disgust is only going to grow as that plays out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One in which BYU faced zero opponents from Power 5 conferences. I guess I'm saying it cuts both ways. But good points for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a first rounder -- especially in the top of the first -- I'd like to see a guy go against top teams. This isn't saying he doesn't have the physical talent to be a first rounder.
