kdels62 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 @SAR I is right. It was cool but this was framed as an experience with unheard of access to the franchise. It wasn’t that. It was fluff, it was cool, but it was fluff. More insight into how the trade for AVT got done or some footage of Douglas leading up to the decision to making the Darnold trade would’ve been super compelling. Also if they actually mentioned some of their backup plans if they failed to get their primary targets would’ve been cool. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlancemehlot Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 7 hours ago, NYJ1 said: I watched all 4 episodes last night. Pretty entertaining and gives you a lot of the mindset of guys like Phil Savage, Rex Hogan, David Carr, and Dave Nejweh. Very intelligent and professional group Joe Douglas has assembled. Loved Saleh saying, "Disagreement is normal in the organization. It's a good thing and it's never personal." Not Dave Nejweh. Greg Nejmeh. Awesome guy. Grew up a Jets fan and bleeds green for more than just a paycheck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I was surprised when the head scout said Zach Wilson has good but not elite arm strength. That should have been edited out. Someone got beat up in meetings this morning for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greengeek Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 So I’ve read all the comments and then watched the vids. Here is my take. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!Just imagine how much film they must have collected to bring us these two hours. It was a huge continual effort going way back and it was all for the fans. Furthermore the discussion was invariably detailed and insightful without giving away top secrets. Of course I would like more post-draft material. Who wouldn’t? But the only way to get more of the same is to avoid spitting out the first bite.So THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, keep sharing with the fans! We love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelScott Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 This is probably the first time in many years where the media dept could put release so much behind the scenes, real life footage and NOT have it cause people to give up their season tickets lmao. Could you imagine this kind of access while Gase and his Hobbit or Mac were still here? I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it probably wouldn't have gone over the way this has... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HawkeyeJet Posted June 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2021 I have nothing to base this off other than interviews and I'm sure there is no real way to measure his worth (good or bad) but I like that Douglas has a guy like Phil Savage on staff to bounce things off of. I was very impressed with Savage. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 11 hours ago, GKnight83 said: I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment. A few injuries or players falling short of expectations and 6 wins will look realistic. No such occurrences and I can agree with your assessment. Saleh's predecessor was able to cobble together 7 wins against a similarly easy schedule with the most injuries in team history including being down to his 3rd string quarterback for a month. Injuries are no excuse for the 8 win mandate. SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAR I Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 10 hours ago, Alka said: The way I see it, 6 wins this year is a lay-up, 7 wins is a foul shot, and 8 wins is a 15 foot jumper. 9 wins is a 3 point shot. 10 wins for the Jets this year is a shot 3 feet beyond the 3 point line, and 11 wins is a half court shot. The lay up is 100%. The foul shot is 80%. The 15 foot jumper is 60%, the 3 point shot is 33%, the shot 3 feet beyond the 3 point shot is 10%, and the shot at half court is about 3%.

David Harris Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 Carolina one was way better- more behind the scenes- maybe as a brand it’s better that the Jets were more cautious but as a fan I was a tad bored/disappointed but Again it might be indicative of a better run organization Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day this is nothing more than an advertisement put together by the PR department. That being said, it's still entertainment and a very, albeit edited, small "behind the scenes" perspective for the fans. Which is precisely what these videos are.

Bowles Movement Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 21 hours ago, SAR I said: I have no idea what that means. I'm the biggest fan on the site. I just think the documentary was superficial and I thought there would be a little more insight. Like perhaps Sam being told we're not moving forward with him, a conversation with Zach's father or agent, Saleh saying something that isn't from the new-coach-rhetoric-playbook, that sort of thing. Not to mention, there have been over a dozen OTA's and gatherings, classroom instruction, not a single piece of that either. This was essentially a 120 minute version of one of the Jets 1 minute videos. Fluff. SAR I You had to watch 2 hrs worth to figure that out? It’s Jets PR, so what did you expect? Will you watch the next 4 episodes to confirm your feelings? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't just BS post-draft speak. That's exciting to me! This. The single most important piece of new information in that documentary with the clip from the pre-draft meetings where are the analytics Department said that they had Elijah Moore ranked as the 16th best player in the draft. That's not post-draft talkin up a guy who you picked. That's The Scouting Department legitimately saying, before the draft, that they ranked a player in the top half of the first round 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
