Beerfish Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 1 hour ago, Wit said: I actually really like JD. Does whiffing on the number 2 pick QB mean hes out? Personally JD has made progress, and hes a victim of some really bad luck with O line injuries AND pampering Zach (who sucked) with offensive picks. I hope he stays. I think Saleh has done a good job with the defense. I think MLF probably needs to go but Zach being generationally terrible saves him. No one cares about bad luck, the picks work or they don't He has whiffed on #2 overall QB and #11 overall LT two terrible misses and he has some other bad ones as well. He has made some good picks and good trades though so he should be in no danger at all imo. Huge test this off season to see what happens at QB. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultraJETfan Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 He should get one more year. He's done a good job adding some great young talent. He gets this off season to fix the OL and QB situation and then it's playoffs or bust. No in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Goodman Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I’ve trashed Douglas relentlessly since the Becton pick. Which he followed up with a possibly even worse pick in Zach. Horrendous selections. But there’s a lot of talent on this roster now, I wouldn’t think about letting him go at this point. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when there is, qbs taken too early often are busts. Look at darnold, baker and Rosen all in same class. All thought would be great, all busts. He could have sured up OL, and went with vet or Mike white. And imagine using darnold pick, and 3 2nd rounders gave up to trade up for darnold, for OL/TE. Mike white probably still is playing with healthy ribs. In hindsight, sure. But without the benefit of hindsight, it should’ve been Fields.

I love how people suggest picking up another qb like picking up groceries - there's nothing out there. Yeah there’s never anything out there. Hardly ever see a vet get loose or traded. Even if we pickup the 32nd ranked QB, that’s still an improvement for us. Go figure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 No. Douglas has given us a loaded roster and a seemingly good head coach. Even the great Ozzie Newsome whiffed on QBs. He’ll get and should get a chance to fix his major error. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billo83 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Jets fans: we are the worst team in history at drafting. We can't acquire talent or make trades, and haven't had a meaningful December game in forever JD has what could be a historic draft in getting two ROTY offensive candidates, ROTY defensive player, historic heist in the Adams trade, and had the team in playoff contention in December after a complete tear down the year before. Jets fans: should we fire JD? Just can't make this crap up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hate the thinking your qb has to come from the draft. Look how many great picks we wasted on qb busts. Glad we have Sauce and Garrett Wilson, who are playing on high level just like predicted. Instead of possibly another qb bust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dupe Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 We are so lucky to have JD and he needs to be kept long term. Zach was the right pick folks! We had to have a QB and he was rated 2nd to Lawrence by a long way. Top drafted QBs have to perform immediately and unfortunately, Zach hasn’t worked out. If we traded out, Zach certainly would have gone #2. Almost every game with Zach the last two years has been uncomfortable even for fans. If JD moves off of Zach so soon it will be even more impressive. I feel more confident in JD making the team right for 23 than I have of winning any game with Zach under center the last two years. And for a long time I was hopeful that we had struck gold with our young QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlito1171 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Not right now but if he's unable to find a QB1 next year and we take a step back....Woody will clean house, and rightfully so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammybighead Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 No. He shouldn't be fired. But he needs to figure out the oline and qb situation sooner rather than later. I would implore JD not to compound an error at qb by making a knee jerk move and investing in the wrong guy next year. He has a chance to untie himself from zach but giving out a huge deal or trading assets from the wrong guy will definitely do him in and screw the jets for years to come. If you're not sure, just stick with white and bring in another journeyman to compete with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bd71 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Let’s fire our GM after only a few years and just hitting on an excellent draft class. I’m sure FA’s would be lining up to come here. Yes he flubbed the Wilson pick, but he’s not getting fired, nor should he be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a miss that’s hard to come back from as a GM. The system in place that would allow a franchise to invest the 2nd overall pick on a player who simply can’t play and seems to be a headcase is certainly worthy of moving on from Douglas. The Becton pick isn’t as also a huge problem and a total scout whiff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
