You would think being cut a few times would give him extra motivation. I liked him when JD drafted him. It's hard to tell who will keep working once they get a little paycheck. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Had such high hoped for this guy. I thought maybe he would be our next Rob Moore, a solid #2 or #3 receiver. Shame. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has athletic talent but he doesn’t have football talent. He’s the slowest sub 4.4 guy I have ever seen. Has no idea how to use his speed, lacking elusiveness and technique. For a big guy, he doesn’t high point the ball and doesn’t have great (soft) hands. His route running is so poor and lazy, he constantly fails to gain inside leverage to even utilize that size. His football IQ is incredibly poor. Mims is a BAD football player who got by in college on his athletic talent. Horrible evaluation by NFL and Jets scouts. Destined to bust in the league, only drafted because of physical gifts. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his talent was pretty overstated. No amount of work rate was ever gonna get him separating in the NFL. The 40 time never showed up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll tell you what though IJ, Pittsburgh puts a premium on big WRs who can block and that's the one thing he was the best at while he was here. I like the kid, it's too bad for our wide receiver corps that they are stuck for another year of the worst pro QB in the sport being the one throwing 100 MPH passes over their heads from 5 yards away or even worse, not even LOOKING at wide open TD opportunities. I really can't stand that Zach Wilson has to be the team that I follow's QB. It sucks because HE sucks 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 the worst part of the Denzel Mims draft pick is that the Eagles took Jalen Hurts in the 10 picks when the Jets traded down this "tankathon" idea that a team has to lose all their games to get a QB is hogwash you can find a great QB anywhere you just have to not have a terrible scouting department the kind that thinks Denzel Mims is good or Elijah Moore has character 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was anyone screaming for Jalen Hurts here? Not that I remember. BUT....if you scream often enough about taking every QB prospect, sooner or later you hit on one. But just imagine if you actually were a GM using up all those picks on every one of those QB prospects. My guess? You wouldn't be a GM long. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Not saying that was worth the investment lol and it certainly was no fault of Rob Moore. But I liked both Rob Moore and Terance Mathis a lot and feel they are underrated in Jets lore. Also let's be honest. Brett Favre most likely would have been terrible if we drafted him. He had a great roster and a soon-to-be hall of fame head coach in Green Bay. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After re-reading my post, it kind of sounds like an attack on what you wrote (you praised Rob Moore while I was talking about how it cost us Favre), which was not my intention. I just like to laugh at our misfortune since laughter is about all we've got, considering this team's history. I agree with Moore he was a solid player, as was Terrance Mathis, though both kind of flourished elsewhere. I'll add Jeff Blake to the "flourished elsewhere" list.

Didn’t feel attacked but appreciate it. Mathis was a beast in Atlanta for a few years. Moore improved in Arizona.
