doitny Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 ok i got a couple of observations. 1st. SF never called us to trade for the 2OA. or did we forget. 2. Wilson had a great preseason. i posted all his throws. no bouncers or fireballs. was leading his receivers. so there was no one on this board or on the CS who didnt believe he wasnt ready in week 1. looking back i dont know when we bench him. after the Denver game? so he plays 3 games which 2 are awful and you bench him? not good for his confidence. next week he has his best game vs Tenn. Atlanta wasnt pretty but we were in that game till the end. gets hurts vs NE. looked good on his throws for the short time he was there. comes back and does enough to beat Houston. well we rushed for 157yds so he just had to game manage. do you sit him then after a win? Phila was his best half of football. missed 1 throw. gets 3 TDs. last week was bad but were at the end of the year. now its ride or die time. makes no sense to sit him anymore. so tell me when do you sit him?

They went all in on him and handed him the job when he wasn't ready. They sold us on he needed all the reps to develop. I wouldn't dump either WIlson or Lawrence. I would dump both Saleh and Meyer and not give them another chance at developing them. I probably wouldn't let Rhule sign another QB to a long term deal either. Interesting. Keep Wilson and dump Saleh. Never happening, but interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty obvious we weren't trading out. I have no issue with the pick. The Jets and the media certainly sold everyone on him being the pick and being ready to start day 1.

Irish Jet Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 He will desperately try. If they can land a Bridgewater or Garoppolo in the offseason and they scrape 8-9 wins then I think he'll get another year. He can point to progress and if we've got to that win total with an above average QB then there's obviously been improvements to the team. If he's all in with Zach and we have a repeat of this season's debacle then it will be the end of Saleh, Douglas and Wilson. The latter may stick around but certainly not as a starter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Ghost Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 1 hour ago, bla bla bla said: If I were JD, I'd be looking into Jimmy G as a backup if he is cut. 1) Pushes Zach 2) Allows him to continue drafting to support either QB 3) If JD has a successful hit rate in his next 2 drafts then I think he can survive Zach flopping I'm sure a lot of people would want him to get canned but I think it would be a mistake. I think he's shown success in trades, waiver claims, and UDFAs. I think his drafts have been about league average (2020 doesn't look great but I'm not sure that is from a lack of talent) I’ve seen two people bring up Jimmy G in the last 24 hours. Im not disagreeing, but I’m curious. Are you under the impression you’ll get him on a cheap deal? If I had to guess, he’ll get a higher Aav than Zach has next year. He’s going to get starter money not backup. If you’re okay with that, fine. I just don’t see why you’d keep Wilson around though. He’s not beating out someone like JG.

Very true, but for most of these guys (Goff, Trubisky) it coincided with a HC change. This was the promise of Adam Gase and Darnold. ? We're gonna have the same HC and OC...

I was only mentioning it because someone else brought it up and it made a lot of sense to me. Jimmy G is a 30 year old average starter quality QB who knows the system and can play the role of backup who can easily step in and start if Wilson continues to struggle. You give the #2 pick the benefit of the doubt but I think you have to have a legit backup plan if you're JD. It's probably the exact role Jimmy G will be playing in SF next year if he stays there. The Jets have to add a bunch of talent and start winning games in 2022. JD's job depends on it, Saleh's future depends on it and the guys in the locker room aren't going to accept losing every week because the team drafted a rookie in 2021 that isn't getting the job done. If they add a bunch of talent and aren't winning games because Wilson isn't progressing - you have to have a guy who can step in and steady the ship IMO. I'm not saying I expect Wilson to continue to struggle but you have to be prepared for the realistic scenario that he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be fine with it but I suspect Jimmy G is too "high profile" for that role in the sense that it would generate too much instant drama/QB chatter that JD and RS wouldn't want. I think they'd want someone like Marcus Mariota who could blend into the background and nobody would think about starting until it was clear that's where they should go.

Snell41 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 If JD can't land a stud QB with the 2nd pick, how will he do it in the 4th round?There were no studs to land. The mistake wasn’t missing, the mistake was jumping in the first place. We could have traded down, held onto Sam and brought in Minshew or Trubisky to compete with Sam use the capital of the #2 overall to stockpile talent that we desperately need. I think JD jumped because of the optics of passing on a QB at 2 vs actuAlly thinking Zach was a worthy QB at 2.Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app I think the problem is that it did matter who the GM was, one of those QBs would be drafted. Nobody expected this (except you). Darnold is failing worse than Bridgewater did in Carolina, so that wasn't a viable option. The reality is that failure seems bound to happen, hopefully Zach learns how to play football and then slows it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmnj Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Joe is working on nailing three picks for the jets all bust team becton-waste of space and joe took the wrong lineman mims-he is now officially stephen him and d smith although he actually is the worst of the three Wilson -he is terrible and anybody that watches football can see it no matter how many excuses are made-he looks worse than Geno and it not even close -he has the same skillset as browning nagle but was drafted higher if joe is building an all bust team his core is excellent-lineman that cant get on the field and is not really skilled to play his position, a non star wr that cant get on the field but when he does , he cant catch and commits penalties and likes to take plays off, then you got Wislon who cant hit the side of a barn and he too sees ghosts and his coach even said as much saying his confidence is poor way to go joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically it would be a deal for $6-8m with playing time incentives to raise the contract value. I do think we try to add a vet that isn't named Joe Flacco this offseason, Jimmy G just happens to be starting caliber in our system with coaches he's been around before. Main question was, does JD survive if Zach is a bust, that IMO would be how he survives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
