Well that escalated quickly. Despite being the Jets second round pick last year, Mims was working alongside Jeff Smith and Lawrence Cager today. At this point, there can be no doubt that free agent addition Keelan Cole is firmly ahead of Mims on the depth chart. Rookie Elijah Moore has also continued to impress and is poised to play ahead of Mims as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 92ShaunEllis92 Posted July 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2021 It’s no big deal at this early stage of the preseason for a young WR still acclimating to the pro game. He’s raw and was a 2nd rounder, but he has the physical tools to be really good; perhaps still “learning” WR at the pro level. Let’s see how/what he contributes and develops as the season progresses. Worst case scenario, I’m confident in our GM to know when to cut bait on a player and still be able to salvage some value for him via trade. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Integrity28 Posted July 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2021 Remember, Mims dropped in that draft. We all thought we got value. It could have been a reach instead. Hope he figures it out. Good that we kept Crowder and added Cole, Davis and Moore. Old regime would have given Mims 3 years without any threat of losing his job. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 way too early to know where mims will fall out. of course we all want him to succeed and he should justify his draft position but some guys just don't or can't take the pressure of the new guys coming in. either way it'll be a win for the jets. mims turns his game around or he gets beaten out by someone else. either way the guy in his position will be better.

Maynard13 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Mims will be fine. He’s a big strong high leaping gazelle and Wilson has no fear throwing jump balls. Mims will make plays and I see him being a red zone threat with Zach. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bungaman Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 4 minutes ago, BurnleyJet said: He’s seems to have a whiff of Stephen Hill about him. Not really. Hill was so bad he couldn't even figure out how to push off, and he had hands of stone. Mims will have to learn some nuances where in college his athleticism bought him everything he needed to excel, but he won't be nearly as bad as Hill. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PepPep Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I'm hoping he turns things around. He's just too physically gifted to not be a great weapon on the outside. In order for him to get cut he would have to get beat out by Vyncent Smith, Jeff Smith or Cager. Anything can happen but I highly doubt those guys beat him out. Even Berrios, while being able to add productivity as a returner has a tougher hill to climb to make the roster just because he has at least 2 slot receivers ahead of him (Crowder and Moore and even Cole to an extent). I know people already have Berrios penciled in as making the roster but I actually think Mims still has a better chance to make it. When all is said and done, barring injuries, we will have Mims, Berrios, Cole, Crowder, Moore and Davis as our receiving corps going into week one of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjasi Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I think people are underestimating how good our WR depth is now. Cole is a good NFL WR and I sincerely think Moore has a chance to be one of the best slots in the entire league because he just plays so fast (one of my favorite players in college over that last 5-6 years) I think it's fair to doubt that Mims will ever be a stud, but he can absolutely still be a good NFL WR 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS17 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 This is kind of perplexing. He showed an ability to get open last year and make some plays with the worst quarterbacking in football. And that was with zero training camp reps. I don’t recall drops being an issue. I hope this is motivational and he steps up and proves himself. He’s an enigma right now. He has the size and athleticism to be a true X wideout, but it remains to be scene whether he has the drive to put it together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he a average starting corner or is he only a starter on a weak secondary? Can't he be both? lol I mean, the truth is we don't really know the type of player Hall is yet. He played what? 8 NFL games? Correct me if I am wrong. So we're talking about a 5th round rookie coming off injury who played in 8 NFL games on a terrible team. He looked solid, he looked promising. But its not nearly enough to really know whether he is a legit NFL starter, a potential star, a bust, a JAG, a useful backup, better as a safety, better in a different system, etc., etc. Personally I think he can develop into a solid starter who can play on the outside in the Saleh zone heavy system. I don't see him having Pro-Bowl or #1 shut down CB upside. I don't see him developing into a Richard Sherman type CB. But who knows. I actually think Pinnock, the rookie, has more upside if he can buy into the Saleh scheme and Jet fans should be excited about him as a potential #1 but he's super raw and it will take time for him to develop. And lets not forget about Bless, who Jet fans seem to have completely written off. Easily our most talented CB, he could very well have a big year if the D-line finally gets pressure on the QB.

Mims I think Moore is and will be ahead of Cole, who I’m also very happy to have. They’ll be designing plays for Moore this year. There’s no doubt that Mims is in the dog house and/or getting some tough love right now. I don’t know what the issue is, but they clearly feel the need to push/test him. People thinking he’s in danger of getting cut are getting way ahead of themselves, though. This is a big, physical, fast WR who the Jets drafted in the second round. He’s gonna be on the team this year and get his opportunities eventually. I’ve mentioned before that I suspect that Joe Douglas didn’t trade down this year because last year he missed his guy after moving down, and he wasn’t going to do that two years in a row. I really liked Mims, but he may’ve been JD’s consolation prize. Hopefully the tough love pays off. I have some faith. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
