Jetsfan80 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 5 hours ago, Bowles Movement said: Considering that Nabers wasn’t the first player or even first WR drafted this year, there is some irony in the complaints that we should have lost more to secure the WR. I’d have been more than happy with Odunze too. Instead we got the meh OT. The overall point is the Jets always do this - there’s no tangible upside to winning those meaningless late season games in a lost season but there sure is evidence of it hurting us over the years. They’ve been pulling this sh*t for 2 decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those “meaningless games” are a chance for some players to show they are worth re signing or bringing back for another chance to prove themselves.

All it would have taken was for Joe Douglas to suggest maybe don’t give Breece Hall nearly 40 touches like he got against WSH and NE. That really would have been the difference, especially in the Commanders game. The rest of the healthy schlubs on the roster at the time could have went out and tried to win to their heart’s content. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it’s not the teams but the respective fan base. And I’m sure Pats fans are obnoxious, but there are none in my life p. Giants fans are the biggest a$$holes on the planet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one can, Be difficult to match the "Waste and Garbage" we have had throwing to Wilson. I tell people Wilson is the most talented receiver you've never heard of. His stats are amazing considering who the QB's have been under his tenure. Yet in NYJ fashion, just may/ will go to waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How so? The defense played well most of the season, specials were fine also. The offense was terrible, but I didn’t see anyone other than Lazard looking like they quit. Guys like Hall and GW certainly didn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this year because they have proven better options but in the longer term this could be a very good pick at a premium position. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he might become a better player than that, but as of right now? The Jets took a player in the 1st round who IS their backup LT. Odunze or Nabors, who they WANTED to pick will be starting WRs, which btw is also a premium position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't mean that Olu isn't going to be a valuable pick and that Odunze is going to have a better overall career. We just don't know. I like the idea of building the Oline talent and depth.
