We will be VERY desirable. Much more so than we were when we were half-assing it, which is why we ended up with Idzik in the first place. And how could you POSSIBLY be worried it may hurt the draft?! Have you seen our drafts?! That entire dept is one of our biggest problems. That's why we need a new GM. And if you think Idzik is gonna trade picks to jump up to #1 overall you've got another thing coming.

Here is my issue. Won't a GM/front office change screw us up for the draft? Last time it took forever to hire a GM. At this point, the Jets are likely going to have no better than the 3d pick in the draft and it could very well be the 4th or 5th. Those are no good because the Jets have to, at all costs, secure a pick that guarantees they get Mariota. I would have no problem with the Jets swapping first round picks with the Raiders and throwing in some additional picks to get the #1 overall pick guaranteeing the selection of Mariota. We've all seen what it looks like when the Jets have QB's who are not very good. Mariota is a 3 year starter and runs the type of offense that seems to be the future of the NFL. He has a big arm, throws well on the run, and can hurt D's with his legs. If we fire the GM, how in the world do we work out a trade for the #1 pick? Admittedly, I hove not idea whether Idzik would pull the trigger on a trade. In this instance I hope that Woody steps in and tells Idzik to do whatever it takes to get Mariota, and that if he does not get Mariota, he WILL be fired. Not if they act fast. You highlight a legitimiate problem but if they can act fast and there is really no reason to take months like they did last time, they should be able to put people in place within a month at most of Black Monday. If they can't Woody should fire himself. And it's a completely different situation. We actually have a lot of flexibility now cap wise, prob best Dline in the league, and assuming we don't win anymore games have a very good draft spot. We at least have something to work with. And there won't be a HC forced on anyone.
