I feel like I'm on crazy pills when Winters discussions break out. He's well past "decent starter". Winters is one of the better RG in football. I guess i don't know what I'm looking for, or i've simply not paid close attention. I saw average. Well, above average to be fair. Good, but not great... a prime candidate to be overpaid. But whatever. One less question mark moving into April.

nice to keep our own talent in house, but i had a feeling we were going to over pay... and we did.
B- grade

Going into next year with Petty and Hack is a WIN/WIN.
Either A- one of them turns out to defy odds and be a legit starter OR B- we finally in a position to draft in 2018 and attract a new GM/HC if need be.
Veteran presence? Grab a Yates. A Hoyer. Someone who will only be there when the wheels come off.

Glennon is the definition of SAME OLD JETS...
Couldnt land a REAL winner like Winston, better settle for clipboard Glennon and another fucking 3 years of less-than-average offensive output.
Fuck overpaying someone just to get by. Time to STOP screwing around and suck on a level that NECESSITATES change and drafting a real winner.
Hackenberg and co. next year. Deal with it I say.

The Clemson sweep!
It's hard to argue with any of those individually. I'd only say the Watson pick would be most difficult for obvious reasons.
I'll tell you what tho - if I was offered this or roll the dice and see what Macc does?...
I think you know what my answer would be.

Looking back, I have no idea who we should have picked in round 1. None of the guys I was targeting were available. If we take Lynch out of the equation, there was literally no one left to pick last year when we selected. All the consolation prizes were off the board; Corey Coleman, T. Decker, Floyd, Ryan Kelly, etc. Myles Jack would have been a better decision IMO.

I hate to bust your bubble but it's probably a 90% chance we go defense again. You know.....BPA and all. Either a CB or ILB. Exactly. Which begs the macro-level question... how on earth is Fournette not the BPA when we pick? I concede that although i prefer Cook a smidge, i dug in for more Leo film and the talent is immense. Insane even. How... how how how, could he not be the BPA when we pick??

If Garrett called for that spike play on first down then he has A LOT to answer for. That play was critical. Unbelievable. Couldn't imagine how anyone thought that was necessary.

If there's some sliver of hope -- it's that Macc has gone back to back defense and seen little come out of it. The pressure to draft a splash playmaker on offense to help mask the ineptitude at QB is going to be very real. I'm going to be temporarily religious for the next 3 months. Get him a 6'3" 225 pound, massive catch radius receiver. Know any that may be available at 6? Lol..... You know I do!!

Are they really under the illusion that you can farm a WHOLE TEAM on offense with mid round picks?? Apparently they are. The whole actions speak louder than words thingy.

I feel like we're destined to take (*insert name of generic SEC lineman*) despite an estate's worth on the roster. Every year, same old dream of chasing the next Ngata or Polomalu. How can our Management always always feel like defensive players are the best possible option in the first round. Are they really under the illusion that you can farm a WHOLE TEAM on offense with mid round picks??
I *almost* can't wait to see who our esteemed management thinks is more important building block than Leonard Fournette.

Lets say for speculation purposes that Macc does the typical asshole GM thing and says "hey! there's lots of backs to chose from" and convinces himself Forte plus random round five RB will do... And of course there's no way the Jets are taking Mike Williams in round 1. We're going for an unbeatable record of years with no first round WR picks. (2001 Santana moss is almost 20 year old record standing) So who the fck else could the Jets honestly take? I honestly don't know who the hell those meatheads in the war room could possibly prop up over Fournette. But they will. QB?... don't see it. Anyone worth their salt is going to CLE/SF/CHI Cam Robinson?... please. I'll take the cyanide pill now. More front defensive linemen? Some overrated tweeners? Help me out with some names. First, there is zero chance Mac takes a QB at 6. Not only because there isn't a QB worthy of that selection but, the ramifications would be significant. He would basically be forced into starting that QB from day one. Could you imagine Mac drafting a QB at 6 and then coming out and saying he isn't ready to play and needs "time". After the shit he pulled with Hack this year declaring a red shirt year, there is no way in hell he could try that gain with a top 10 overall pick. And since there isn't a QB who is a viable week one starter, you can cross off QB on your list. Second, cross off Mike Williams from your list. Jets never take a player that I like this much. Especially from my alma mater. My guess is they take a Derek Barnette or Solomon Thomas. What's one more first round pick in the front 7? Pretty much sums up my thoughts... I was really hoping to read some replies and go -- "hey, that might work"... no luck... lol bang on about QBs. It's not gonna work. You take a QB in round 1 -- you're admitting Hack was a brutal mistake -- AND -- if said round 1 QB struggles in any phase of anything -- everyone's fired. 100%

Sure helps having an mvp quarterback Sure, but he's completely turned around that defense while Bowles has ran ours straight into the ground. I don't see it that way. Him and Bradley haven't really done anything. What you're seeing right now -- is ALL Shanahan.

Was that you or sec that was asking about Richardson from the '14 wr class Must have been Sec, wasn't me. He has sure broken out in a big way these last couple of games. Those first two years with back to back ACLs inhibited his development, but he's been reminding the NFL community as of late that he's not dead yet.
