Popular Post BCJet Posted July 27 Popular Post Share Posted July 27 Although people discuss the Parcells QB rules as far as starts, wins, etc. teams routinely take guys like Trubisky, Lance, and our own Zach Wilson based on upside talent. With the news of Jordan Love's contract, Shefter sent the following tweet: The 2020 NFL Draft has produced nearly $1.25 billion in contracts Joe Burrow 5 for $275 Tua 4 for $212 Herbert 5 for $262 Love 4 for $220 Hurts 5 for $255 Looking at that class, those guys were all long term starters in college who also won. Burrow: 29 starts Tua: 24 starts (got hurt) Herbert: 30+ starts Love: 38 starts Hurts: 35+ To see almost an entire QB class be this successful is really rare and it will be interesting to see how the 2024 class fares as these guys also had a ton of starting experience due to covid year, transfer rules etc. I understand the upside potential when GMs see guys with great athleticism or a huge arm, but it seems like there may be a real correlation between starting and winning in college vs arm strength, etc. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 One of the most important things this offseason, even if Rodgers returns which I think he will, the jets need to draft a qb in the 3rd or 4th round. We need to take a mid round qb every year and start a pipleline and let these young kids battle it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to think that QB in the first two rounds should be a high priority. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isnt 33 year old rogers where he can complain about us using a first or second round pick on a QB. Barring a Rogers injury we will be picking in the 20s which is a great spot to take a "falling QB" or a longer shot to develop for a year behind Rogers. We have to do that in 2024 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Stupid jets use a 3rd overall and a 2nd overall pick on qbs and 100% strike out on both. Maybe Rodgers can stay healthy and give us a year of quality play . I'm pining for the Fitzpatrick era by now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team w/ a crappy qb wins 10 games, doesnt make the playoffs but gives enough false confidence to run it back w/ same crappy qb. The worst situation an nfl team can be in. That year was a complete disaster. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChewyandtheJets Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 I would have felt a lot better about the long term direction of this team if at #10 we took a QB to develop instead of a left tackle to develop. Not sure if the liked JJ McCarthy but I sure did and would have been pretty psyched if we had him to develop behind Rodgers and Taylor. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go out on a limb and say they didn't like him enough to pick him there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if the liked JJ McCarthy but I sure did and would have been pretty psyched if we had him to develop behind Rodgers and Taylor. McCarthy at 10 would have been my dream scenario as well but I think they did the next best thing. Seeing Olu working on the field with Tyron Smith is truly beautiful and he is going to learn so much while also not being thrown directly into the fire. That being said, 2024 is when we will need to start addressing the position and hopefully there is a way to get someone like Riley Leonard who can sit behind Rogers for a year and then take over. As for Travis, he does have a ton of starts as well, put up numbers against good competition and has very good athleticism for the position. The unfortunate thing is that he likely wont get any TC or pre-season reps which will hold back his development a ton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only is that correct but he also only threw 7 picks in the last 2 years. I get that there are size limitations and some arm strength stuff but we can all go back and look at Brock Purdy's scouting report and see how these guys can get it wrong. Would be great to see Travis at least get some practice reps this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that had happened, that QB wouldn't have stood a chance of developing. Rodgers would have gotten hurt again this year once Tyron Smith went down with injury and no capable OT on the roster to replace him. Then the Jets would be going into next offseason probably looking for two starting-calibre OTs, and most likely wouldn't have been able to find two, so that QB would have been running for his life next season and most likely gotten injured or pounded like David Carr was for the Houston Texans, and then they'd be looking to draft another QB high within a year or two.
