If Kenny can prove he can block, he has the edge over Wesco by being a better receiving threat/way faster. I thought Wesco would turn out to be a better all around player, but he's been all around meh so far. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, when Ruckert was first drafted, I felt that the Jets made a mistake by drafting a position that is not a need, but when you look after the 2 tight ends we got in free agency, neither Yeboah or Westco has done anything to show that they deserve to make the roster. I think that Ruckert is now a need, especially if one of the guys we got in free agency gets injured. And for the future, having Ruckert on this team is a major plus. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt Conklin and Uzumoh were just bridge guys until we drafted a stud TE. If it's Ruckert, so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jNYC1 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 TE typically takes a while to acclimate to NFL & produce… it’s good that there is no pressure (except from fans) for Ruckert to do much this year barring injury. If all goes well, the first half of the season is sort of a red-shirt period, with some sprinkling in later in the year. I want to start the year relying on the proven veteran TE weapons we picked up, in order to support Zach’s development. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no issue with the Ruckert pick at all. Good teams draft potential replacements before it becomes a need. We have him on a rookie deal for 4 years, and two solid NFL TEs, so there is no pressure on him to produce year 1. If he does it is a bonus. And while Uzomah and Conklin are both better than anything we have had at the postiion for the last 10 years, they are probably closer to 20-25 ranked TE in the league than top 10. Ruckert has the better upside. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great point. Zach will already be relying on 1st and 2nd year wideouts. Good that he has a couple of experienced TEs in case Ruckert needs time to adjust to the pro game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe also 1 RB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesco has no place in the football business, neither does the guy who drafted him. I like Ruckert, Bauman and Yeboah. A mistake was made in not trading up with a future pick and taking Zander Horvath who offers everything that Jyzcheck does and more 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, it's hard to see Wesco making the team, much less my boy Kenny Yeboah. Sure will be interesting. But I think the depth chart is all but set in stone: CJ, Conk, Ruckert. The odds of the Jets keeping 4 TEs, even if one is more of a hybrid WR (Cager) or H-back (Wesco) are unlikely. Its MUCH more likely they keep 4 RBs with the 4th being Bawden and use him as more of a traditional FB. Remember, Ruckert was one of the best run blockers in college football, deeming Wesco's skillset unnecessary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
