Hal N of Provo Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 You guys are worried about the wrong thing. Zach is going be better this season and awesome by year 3. BUT WHAT ABOUT OFFSETS!!!! I couldn’t sleep last night worrying about the offsets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE BARON Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 2 hours ago, slats said: Really? Cool. Did not know that. I think the pressure is on the coaching staff. JD did his job bringing in talent, now they have to incorporate 12+ new starters/major contributors. And they have Zach on their hands, too. Big job to get this very young team together in a hurry. This is why I’m glad we go a month without a divisional game. What's your feeling on Zach Wilson ??? I'm totally stumped at this juncture. His play and stats got better late in the season, but I still didn't feel convinced. Clearly, the arm talent is there, but the rest ???

They tried very hard to find a star caliber vet at WR, and were willing to pay thru the nose to get it done. GW is something of a consolation prize in that regard. They wanted an immediate, sure-fire #1, and for good reason - Zach needed help. Instead, they have a highly regarded rookie. A lot riding on how fast he develops and how good he can be. You may be right but I don't know how hard we really went after a vet. I mean sure we got a hill package together...and wanted DK but he was not available. All the other guys kinda blowed chunks...looking at you Robinson...anyway. I think Joe prefer what we got.

He was absolutely horrible to start the season and, even though he got better, he still wasn’t good. He needs to take a major step forward. I feel that he’s got natural ability, brains, and a solid work ethic, so that’s a decent start. I’m very happy that we have a regime in place that understands the value and importance of offensive weapons, and have surrounded him as best as they could. It’s obvious that he’s put some time in at the gym, and we know he trained with Beck and his teammates over the offseason. It’s up to him now. I believe he’s been put in a position to succeed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree fully. JD, Saleh & Woody (Woody said he would be heavily involved in the draft ) did as much as you could ask to outfit Wilson with offensive manpower. I don't think I have ever been this intrigued about the Jets. Not so much excited, but intrigued. There are so many issues that are in doubt and so many stories to watch play out. Saleh's performance, Zach's performance, Becton's performance, Sauce, Garrett Wilson, J.J.'s performance in general and how he will compare to Thibs, Breece Hall, the two FA TE's and Ruckert, how the offence will evolve. In all the time you have been a Jet's fan, can you remember so many story lines to watch ??? The Jets are packed with football food for thought.

Joe W. Namath Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I just watched film on Wilson last night. My goodness. He has it all. Speed, toughness, hands, route running, jet sweeps, elusiveness etc. This kid is going to be a flat out superstar. If there was any truth to the extent of our interest in tyreke hill, that will go down as the greatest non-trade we ever made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Wilson. I would’ve liked Williams, too, but I like the fact that they wanted to bring in a WR who was ready to work right now as opposed to waiting out his recovery. Still, outside of maybe a couple of inches, I think Moore is still the better prospect. Jets could have something special if Zach can get them the ball this year. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about this jets could have something special if the receivers can hold on to the ball this year. Jets were tied for 4th in drops.

The Posse had Art Monk who was 6'3" but also Gary Clark and Ricky Sanders who were listed at 5'9" and 5'11" Guess that might as well be the Jurassic for how long ago it was, but things should be getting easier and easier for little guys.

True story; and I believe @Lith (maybe that was David Johnson) can verify - back in the catacombs of JI, Paradis was not only an Antonio Borwn fan, but I was virtually starting the threads about how incredibly nuanced his game was and how badly the jets needed to select him in rnd 3-4. He was in every mock. I actually don’t know if I met another believer as high on Brown as I was. And let’s be clear, he was not a popular name. He was largely billed as a G5 special teamer development/return guy. I was in love I HATE Pit as much as any team in our Div and so when they drafted him I just closed that chapter of heart and let it go (PS, I liked Sanders and to a lesser extent Wallace too. Pit has a history of taking WRs I like;. Makes it worse). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its called breece hall, elijah moore, corey davis, braxton berrios, breece hall, michael carter, cj uzamah, conky, laken tomlinson, AVT, Mechi Becton. This Jets offense is more talented then the bengals offense last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
