GreenReaper Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 An enjoyable interview. He was a multi-sport participant. And studied players from different sports to mesh his skills into his pass rush repertoire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrebetfan80 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Very soft spoken kid. Enjoyable interview though. Love that he highlighted running the hoop all the time. SUCH an underrated aspect of defensive line and athletes in general. A lot of people believe the 40 time is the indicator of speed, but talk to any professional strength coach or athletic trainer they will tell you the real indicator of athletic potential is how fast you can run a circle. Running a circle requires the body to be put at game authentic angles, especially the foot and shin. Probably a big part of how he is able to bend and remain balanced. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LockeJET Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Was a surprise pick at a position not totally of need, but I’m starting to really like this kid. Start making plays off the edge and nothing else matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
32EBoozer Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Wow…. What a humble & yet confident young man. Embraces living life and show’s maturity beyond his years. Having decided to join the Army if he wasn’t able to get a scholarship tells me he isn’t afraid of hard work and sacrifice. Hoping he will become “Jersey Worthy” in a couple of years. These last 2 drafts certainly have provided multiple young players who have made a great impression on me. Sauce, GW, Breece, JJ, Clemons… adding IV to that list has me hopeful for the future of Jets football. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscanyTile2 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 It feels like JD does tend to draft high character guys. McDonald, GW, Breece, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Told you we’re all gonna end up loving him. End of the day, find a way to film the room with character and talent… I think I was pissy about getting clowned by BB more than anything…. But, as long as JD finds players and doesn’t whiff, I’m not inclined to critique the “how”. He’s the professional. ?♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
