#27TheDominator Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 13 minutes ago, jetstream23 said: The Jets sent Herndon and a 6th for a 4th is how I read it. Somebody with the Draft Value chart can figure that out for us but it basically sounds like a 5th round value we got. It will depend where the teams end up. Using draftek, if the picks are in the same spots as this year it works out to Viking 4th (#107 = 80 points) - our 6th (#163 =24.6 points) = 55.4 which equates to somewhere between 119 and 120 which is mid to late 4th. Best case is 112 - 13 which is pick 100/101 4th or 5th pick in the 4th round. Worst case is 44 - 25.4 which is #178 or a worse 6th than we had this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fair point but IMO JD’s still fares better than the 1st drafts of his last 4 predecessors except for Tanny’s glorious 2006 haul. To each his own. To me, JD has shown an astuteness as GM the Jets have been lacking for some time; it’s not like I’m some psycho acronym swinging and praising JD’s nutsack like if he were Yeboah.

Your naive and close-minded view that JD has been functioning as a NFL GM with “no expectation to win” is absurd. Any competent fan of the NFL knows this league you have to win or your jobless. So, 3 years, no playoffs, coming off a 2 win season....And you're praising him! At the same time telling me he had expectations and pressure to win. Honestly, I'm going to leave it at this - as I guess we clearly have different definition of the words expectations and pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberjet Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 It’s a good trade- not great. We didn’t gain a draft pick , a better one but not an additional one. From Minnesota’s perspective they gained a “prospect “ and still have the same number of draft picks albeit a couple of rounds later. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do. JD walked into a mutinous $hit storm and I think he’s fared well considering the dearth of talent - both player personnel & Front office. It was a complete franchise overhaul of exorcising MANY scouts, executives, and bad player contracts to get where we are now.

A 4th is really great value. I wondered why bother for a 6th, but a 4th is enough of a reason to actually move Herndon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsons Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 https://www.newyorkjets.com/news/jets-acquire-4th-rounder-from-vikings-in-exchange-for-te-chris-herndon-pick Jets Acquire 4th-Rounder from Vikings in Exchange for TE Chris Herndon, Pick GM Joe Douglas Has Multiple Fourth-Round Picks in 2022 Aug 31, 2021 at 06:45 PM The Jets on Tuesday acquired a 2022 fourth-round pick from the Vikings in exchange for TE Chris Herndon and a 2022 sixth-round pick. A fourth-round selection of the Jets in 2018, Herndon made 12 starts his rookie season and totaled 39 receptions for 502 yards with 4 receiving TDs. He only appeared in a game his sophomore pro campaign as he fractured a rib in a win over the Giants after missing a combined eight games to a suspension and then a hamstring injury. The 6-4, 253-pounder appeared in 16 games last season while making 13 starts, finishing with 31 catches for 287 yards with 3 TDs. The Jets TE room includes Tyler Kroft, who had 2 TD catches against the Packers in the team's second preseason game. Trevon Wesco also has the ability to line up at tight end, but he's been used primarily at FB in Mike LaFleur's west coast scheme. Ryan Griffin, a nine-year veteran who hauled in 5 TDs in 2019 and is working his way back from a hamstring injury, and Dan Brown, a core special-teams performer, were released Tuesday. The Jets will have multiple fourth-round picks in April as they already own Carolina's Round 4 selection. They acquired second- and fourth-round picks from Carolina when they sent QB Sam Darnold to the Panthers in April. Earlier this week, Jets GM Joe Douglas went the trade route to acquire DE Shaq Lawson from the Texans in exchange for a 2022 sixth-round pick.

Have a wonderful evening fellow Jets fan I couldn't agree more with the bolded. But that's my point. We both believe, under the circumstances, he's done an exceptional job. I'm as big a JD fan as there is on this board. But if we believe he's done well (along with most fans) and the team has been awful, I just don't know how you can say he's had expectations and pressure to win. I'm really leaving it at this, I promise this time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Werblin Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I don’t think JD started the day with any plan to trade Herndon, but as he says, if someone calls about a player he’ll listen. The vikings called in desperation and JD capitalized on their desperation. He is a smooth operator. But now he has a hole to fill at TE and i would imagine that since the vikings called about Herndon, the TE cupboard is bare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reasonable expectation for a draft to be successful is to hit on your 1st rd pick. Hit on either your 2nd or 3rd rd pick. And to hit on 1 of the remaining picks in rounds 4-7. So 3 starters out of the entire draft. The hit rate in the 1st rd is about 50% 2nd and 3rd is about 30-40% 4th-7th is about 20%. It's still early to judge especially with no offseason or training camp. But right now you have a starter in Becton and Hall. I don't really count Mann although I should. They all need more time to develop. To think a team should draft more starters, especially Rookie starters, is unrealistic in my opinion. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To transform your team you need at least one really good hit above average on your picks or you never contend. See New orleans 2017. For a team totally devoid of talent like the jets were if you do not hit on more picks and have some pro bowlers and some decent starters you can never get good enough, one crop of players is moving out as more move in.

If he gets four starters out of the draft, it will be considered a very good draft, as it would with any GM. That very well could happen since it generally takes three years for players to mature.
