Many Joe Schmoe fans wouldn’t have even picked a CB there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insert any Joe Schmoe fan and they still get those picks right. He had 3 number ones and yet the team finished the season with a 6 game losing streak (not beating Miami next week). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love me some Sauce but what idiot with the 4th pick doesn't take Sauce at 4. You dont get to pound your chest for top 10 pick because your team stinks every year. JD's record = ZERO PLAYOFF APPEARANCEs/Winning season Fun fact - Mac had at least one winning season. JD still has zero. Well he did a foul up the obvious no-brainer pick of Wirfs over Becton. So hitting a meatball like Sauce is progress! Extension! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Rico Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I'm gonna wait until after next week to take a look at all the teams that make the playoffs and what kind of draft picks they had this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 JD has been all over the map and was definitely given a few too many mulligans his first few years, and did little to actually live up to the hype surrounding him for a while. However, given this past offseason was finally a step in the right direction and the team improved to at least some extent this season, despite the terrible finish quickly taking away quite a bit from that, there's little reason to believe he's losing his job right now. At this point, JD and Saleh's futures are quite deservedly tied together, and this coming year will be their opportunity to prove whether the team should double down on them both, or it's time to move on. To this point, the grade is a C-, and that's even giving benefit-of-the-doubt on a few players there hasn't yet been enough seen to judge. If not even a few of those other players pan out and/or this offseason looks more like his first few, that grade will quickly plummet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knew who we were taking before they even announced it. Too many fans have a myopic view; instead of comparing JD's performance to other GM's in the league, they compare him to Idzik and Mac. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Worth noting the Jets had zero prime time games this season besides the mandatory Thursday night game. Could be a lot of 1pm games next year too. I’m sure Woody notices this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I can’t imagine firing the one stable GM we’ve had in forever. I’d be devastated to lose him. I understand everyone’s sour feelings at this time. The incredible trades are enough to keep his job imo. He’s drafted 4 Ring of Honor type guys in AVT, Sauce, Wilson and Breece. We have a real core for years to come. And he has structured the salary cap well where we have outs on most contracts. That is enough for me for now. He whiffed on a QB. He’s not the first. Harry Roseman, the best GM in the NFL, wanted Zach Wilson badly. I want to see what JD does this off season to fill that spot. With Derrick Carr we’d be cruising to the playoffs. This off season get a QB and attack the offensive line again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcJet Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 JD decided to gut the roster and coaching staff that had won 7 games the year before, and his decision gave us 2 years of unwatchable, non competitive football that made us all root for losses. Thank you Joe Douglas. We endured that because we had draft capital but then, JD delivered two Macc'ish drafts in a row that will set us back another 2 years. He had a great draft this year, and we can finally watch the product again, but... We have basically completed a round trip to where we were three years ago, a 7 win team, a couple nice players, no depth, a bad coaching staff and no QB. The heat is on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 the gm is going to be hated or loved depending on what the team does. obviously getting good players is most of the job but it's also making sure the right players are retained and the right coach is hired. sure we can him for drafting zwilson but that's not his total body of work and, like it or not, zwilson might actually turn out to be pretty good. same thing with becton and mims. i wouldn't exactly say mac's name in the same breath as douglas' because at least douglas recognizes what the team needs and is doing something. mac just drank coffee, drafted dt's and handed out bad free agent contracts.

JustInFudge Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 He has a 13-36 record and the roster is a mismatched pile of dog sh*t w/ a few bright spots. He's a strong F only because the grading scale cant go lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
