  1. 29:35 Joe Douglas is the worst GM the Jets have ever had. Trading the 2nd overall pick was the most obvious decision any Jets GM has ever had to make, and Douglas totally blew it. Trade the pick, build the team, go QB hunting later. 2 other Jets fans and myself screamed that non-stop in 2021. Turns out the only person inside Florham Park that understood that was Robert Salah. Brutal

  2. I'm guessing these guys did not watch that Eagles game. The Eagles ran the same play on a 10-place stretch multiple times. They gave that game to the 49ers

  3. FA comes first…. IF Jets management panics, as usual …. I could live with the Ariz QB K. Murray – career 90 QB rate…. since K. O Brien, how many Jets QB have been ' NFL Avg ' ?? Favre for what 8 games is about it. A huge step up. top O' Co ordin comes first. and top QB coach. A. Glenn must be kept miles from the Jet O'.

  4. I think Moore would be a great fit he’s 6-3/200 plus pounds . All the jets have to do is get a great quarterback friendly offensive coordinator like a Brian daboll or Todd Haley or somebody that can come in and be an on field advisor to Tanner,, or completely replace him. Someone like that would make Dante Moore a pro quarterback.

  5. So more of a Giants question but the sting of losing that #1 pick started to wear off until the game Friday night. Now with Mendoza the clear #1 pick what do you think the bidding between the Jets & Raiders would look like now.. especially if Moore does not declare.

  6. If you are going to sit Moore you trade out from two and take Simpson. If you watch the film Simpson processes much better than more and since they’re both going to sit anyway, I’d rather have the extra pics and Simpson. First round quarterbacks are a coin flip anyway.

  7. Another year in college pursuing a championship would be much more developmentally rewarding for Moore than sitting his rear on an NFL sideline for a year. Especially at such a young age.

  8. you gotta stop with the 10m at oregon. no chance they completely destroy the NIL/Collectives market and ruin it for everyone. 7 max but where’s the leverage?

  9. Jets should trade down from 2 and add even MORE quality picks to what we have already. I think they should ALSO trade down from 33. A lot of teams will want to trade up for players still on the board that they had 1st rd grades on and give up even MORE quality picks. Build the roster this year with those picks and Free Agency and then next year get the Qb they want(NEED). At least he’ll be coming into a SOLID roster. If you look at the Jets opponents next year another Top 5 pick is very possible.
