We still happy about that win against the Patriots? Poll

[Jetsbb]

We would have been picking 7th and taken Odunze. Similar to when the Jets won last game of the season and took

Calvin Pryor instead of Odel Beckham. Yes Jets wanted Odel and would have been picking ahead of the Giants.

[Maxman]

Yes I'm happy. One less win for Belichick and he is now unemployed.

[LSJF]

I’m fine with it….. lots of drips on this board

[TuscanyTile2]

I'm happy with Olu but I still wish we lost.  We could've traded down and gotten a haul.

[Wit]

When the offseason ended I wanted alt but o line was a critical need. Tyron was a shock signing, but never thought fashanu would make it to us. Yes I wanted the sexy WR pick, but if this 21 year old kid can be a plug and play left tackle I would take it.

Yeah I'm happy. I think both players will be good but it is harder to find quality LTs than it is WRs. So from that standpoint, we might luck out if Olu is a starter for 10 years. 

I get that he's not an immediate starter but in 8-9 months time if Smith goes down, we'll all be happy we have Olu to step in.

[Bronxville Jets Fan]

Yes, it was Belichick’s last game with the Patriots and ended a long-time losing streak to the Pats that we would still be hearing about.  Enough said.

[chirorob]

You'll know in 5 years.

I remember when the Jets won a late game so they lost Reggie Bush and got Brick instead.   That worked out pretty well.

[DarthVitreous]

If you like instant gratification, you like the win against the patriots. 
 

If you understand how instant gratification is fools gold, you realize how a loss was really a win. 

[shuler82]

A win-win   Wanted Odunze but can’t complain about 2nd coming of D’Brick

[jetstream23]

Yes. Fine with it. 

[C Mart]

Why continue to whine?!?

[Fed Hill Jet]

I am ALWAYS happy to take first round OT!   I don't think the Jets draft enough first round OT.  Very pleased with the pick.

[nj meadowlands]

Gee didn’t see this thread coming 

[Untouchable]

3 months ago people were pissed about that win because they thought we would have no shot at Alt or Fashanu…

We just drafted Fashanu

I don’t get why people constantly dread on this stuff. Unless you have a DeLorean and a flux capacitor handy, just get over it.

[Icer]

I’m not gonna be mad about drafting oline after watching Becton, Laken, and whoever was at RT suck it up as bad as that bum Zach did last year

[DoubleDown]

It was a nice victory and hopefully the end of the Pats absolutely owning the Jets and Saleh.

Do I like Odunze as a prospect? Yes.

Do we know he would have been the pick if the Jets were drafting little higher? Nope.

If Fashanu turns into a franchise LT, nobody is going to give a sh*t.

[CanadaSteve]

YES.

Why?  Because, unless you have an F**** time machine to go forward first to see how the players make out, and then a time machine to go back and somehow change the outcome of the game, these types of exercises are pointless.

[Grandy]

I'm happy with Olu. I think gift wrapping them a great QB prospect is the biggest sin.

We could've traded down for a haul.  Plus the Pats would've gotten a worse pick. 

And the change in draft position wouldn't just apply for the 1st round.  It would've been for every round.  That win against the Pats was still awful.  And Saleh ran Breece 37 times to win that game.  He couldn't even give Izzy a shot.  Still so disgusted with Saleh.

[nycdan]

I detest these types of threads but I will say one thing.

The last time the Bears took a WR many people here really liked, he was the 7th pick of the draft (we picked right before that pick and there was a lot of grumbling).  That WR turned out to catch a total of 28 passes in his NFL career.  

Not saying Odunze is that, and I like the kid and hope he does really well, but let's not turn him into Jerry Rice just yet.

Oh and just for kicks,  Tyler Lockett was drafted in the 3rd round that year.  He has 612 catches and 8,000 yards receiving.

I’m ecstatic we beat NE and I love our pick.

Okay, do you have a plan to go back and change that or something?

It is what it is

I wanted Odunze or Bowers, but I’m not going to cry about getting my 2nd favorite OT and one of the few legit LT’s in this class.

At least it’s a premium position and Olu’s pass protection is already masterful for playing football for such a short time.

Ridiculous poll options.  Odunze was NOT the only option for us there.  And there was more at stake than just that pick.  That win affected not just our pick but also the Pats' pick.  And in every round, not just the 1st.

[papz187]

I hate these topics.

Fans have no bearing on the outcome of the games.

I will enjoy every Jets win, and let the chips fall where they may.

Back in 06 I wanted Reggie Bush bad, thought he was the next Barry Sanders, and was pissed when we got the 4th instead of 2nd pick due to tie breakers.

Well instead of Reggie we got Brick, and it ended up working out excellent for us.

There are more than 2 or 3 great players in a draft, and they aren't always the guys you expect.

Your general manager determines the success of your draft, not if you lost the last game of the previous season or not.

I'm just glad they didn't draft the tight end. 

[Larz]

The tank crowd gotta figure this out. 
 

Chiefs get a big impact player just letting the board fall to them. 
 

 

[Nixhead]

Yes Happy! Time for the Jets to start winning games and not worrying about their draft position  period. Maybe we should lose this AFC championship game so we get a better draft pick mommy! Nope son - “You Play to win the Game!”  I’ve heard that somewhere? 

[The Crusher]

Spilled milk, Bill is jobless. Hard to complain 

[NYJCAP2]

Remember when they beat the Commanders and everyone here thought they lost out on Olu then? I sure do…

[slimjasi]

If we are talking about one win, the win I would gladly give away is the Washington game. We basically choked that game away, anyway. It almost felt like a loss. 
 

the thing about the patriots game is that I loved watching BB look miserable in the cold snow while our defense completely dominated his offense for 3 hours. I’m good keeping that one. Plus, I think the jets got a really good player, just not a “sexy” one 

[jamesr]

I too remember the anguish expressed here about us having missed out on the top three tackles in the draft.

Will always be glad Bill Belichick’s last game on a Foxboro sideline was a snowy ass kicking at the hands of the Jets.

[mrcoops]

Happy to take the win and the Left Tackle.

As others have said, I can remember much gnashing of teeth over that win "costing" us Alt or Fashanu.

We got to send Belicheat into oblivion with a loss to the Jets, and still got one of those two tackles - we even added a free 4th round pick and upgraded a 6th to a 5th before picking him.

I loved Odunze, but I am very happy with Fashanu.

[jamesr]

Poll option 3 - Loss to the Patriots because we played to lose, miss out on FAs who don't want to play for a spineless team that does that, still pick Fashanu anyway.  

How hard would it have been for us to trade up w. Atlanta and get Rome had we genuinely wanted him that badly? Chicago sure as hell weren't taking Penix, Atlanta could have dropped to ten and got him anyway.
