On NFL.com:
"Saunders, 22, was a fourth-round pick by the New York Jets during a regrettable 2014 draft piloted by short-term general manager John Idzik. Saunders was cut on Sept. 29 of that year, just three games into his rookie season."
"A regrettable 2014 draft" -- even the NFL is ragging on Idzik.

That's about the nicest thing you can say about that draft. A more correct description would be "disaster", "horrifying", "worst draft in history of NFL", "franchise ruining", "disgusting", "craptastic", etc. |

How many picks from 2014 are we down to? Just Pryor and Amaro? And to think we could have had someone like Martavis Bryant with one of those mid round picks  Edit: We still have Shaq Evans |

Some people complained that Idzik was handcuffed by having Rex impressed upon him as a coach but after seeing how Idzik drafted I can only imagine that we would have ended up with a far worse coach and if it's possible, a worse draft.
Fuck you Idzik.

Fuck you Idzik. It might have worked out though. We might have got Winston or Marriota (after they'd both been fired) |

A more correct description would be "disaster", "horrifying", "worst draft in history of NFL", "franchise ruining", "disgusting", "craptastic", etc. What's funny is guys like Charles Davis and Jamie Dukes gave the Jets a B+ and A- grade respectively. Goes to show how inaccurate you can be evaluating a draft right away. |

Not trying to be pro-Idzik here just stating a fact. If one-third of the draft makes the roster, with two as backups who likely won't see the field, out of twelve picks you'll classify that as a success? I think that's setting a low standard. With twelve picks he had a lot of opportunity to get it right. It's a huge problem for me that we're looking at both Pryor and Amaro as what-ifs at this point. I want to be optimistic but by the end of the year both of these guys may be on the end of their tenure with the Jets. Pryor so often seems like he just isn't getting it. Who knows if Amaro will even avoid injuries long enough to prove himself this year. It appears he's been relegated to a limited TE role but with the injury we might see another WR stuck in his place. We may be lucky to keep 2/12 from last year's draft. |
