I knew you were joking, I just figured you’d know the answer to my question, and you did.

#27TheDominator Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 5 minutes ago, Green Ghost said: Serious question… Douglas has been here 5 years now. Have the Jets given a second contract to any of the players he’s drafted or signed in free agency? I’m trying to think of one? Not really fair to go through his drafts. His first draft is just coming up for contracts now and they were drafted for a different coach. 2020 was bad, but it was also drafted for Gase. This year there is really only Becton, Hall and Davis left, which is not pretty. Next year will be AVT, Carter2, Sherwood and Echols. The following season's draft will have big money deals even if these guys all get canned. His free agent classes also have not been great, but IMO they have primarily been band aids aimed at covering spots while we get the draft pipeline up. These TEs, Lawson, Joyner, Thomas, Jefferson, Woods, Hardee, Alexander were basically placeholders for guys like Ruckert, Johnson, etc. I think Irv Charles may take Hardee's spot. Reed and Whitehead were higher level signings and Reed seems like a keeper and a very nice find. I think guys like Joyner technically got 2nd contracts, but I don't think that is what you mean The place he found some guys that were signed back to big deals is the mini-draft. He found Berrios (I know you all hate him now, but he was a solid pickup), JFM, and Quincy Williams were all waiver wire pickups that warranted legitimate contracts when they came due.- 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut Jet Penalty Makers Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 This guy was a pre snap penalty, dropped passes machine.

If he can pack on weight, I think he answered the question. He will probably do at least some of that stuff at his pro day, but saying he "looks small" did he look bigger at the combine? I saw him interview and he looked pretty much the same as at Georgia to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him interview and he looked pretty much the same as at Georgia to me. I couldn’t say one way or the other tbh. The only times I’ve seen him he was in pads, and at 6’3” the extra 12-15 lbs I’m talking about wouldn’t be that noticeable to my eye, but would certainly look better on his chart. No way of knowing though, and I’m not trying to be a conspiracy guy, I’m just saying it’s not that far fetched. I’m not even saying him playing at 235 would be a bad thing… i don’t believe too many of these NFL guys listed weights are accurate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
