Deep Draft in WR don't waste the 6th pick on a WR

If Manish's imaginary trade is a real than do it.

deep draft last year too..what scares me is waiting too long and losing out again. I think Mariotta is going to drop anyways...idk if someone will give up the farm for him.

I see the Redskins and Raiders as possible landings for both. Williams will go to Tennessee.

The Redskins had a poor defensive showing last year. They have Jackson, Garcon, etc. The will likely prioritize defense like Tennessee.

I'm not scared because we don't have some clueless accountant drafting for us this year...

We passed up on so many quality WR's last year it was fukking nauseating...

I still don't understand what Idzik was doing...

As bad as Geno has been, that's not what did him in. Blowing a draft where he had TWELVE picks did him in.

Geno wasn't even his biggest screwup that draft.

He managed to top that by drafting Milliner and Winters

Thank you. Geno is just the popular name for sports talk radio fodder. His receiver selections in one of the best WR in history was outright criminal. winters was/is horrific. To this day hes STILL the only GM to have cut his 2014 4th round pick.

I'd be fine with either Cooper or White. I'd prefer Cooper though.

The thing is even if we don't take a WR in the 1st, there will still be quality receivers in the later rounds. DGB & Jaelen Strong should both be there in the 2nd for us

regardless no one would care about the Milliner pick if we had a QB...if Maccagnan doesnt find one he'll be gone too. Question is, does he hitch is wagon to Mariotta? Clock immeidately starts ticking then.

The best thing the Jets did was fire Rex though...he was the biggest problem

at least we know Bowles won't be scared off by character concerns.

You can argue he had no business going after a QB at all, let alone putting him in competition for a job. The Jets were so beaten down depth wise, that they couldn't give a QB a chance to succeed given those circumstances (still so bad on that level that even if you drafted Winston, you couldn't put him in as a day 1 starter and expect decent results)

A QB isn't gonna bail him out of the hole Idzik put him in this early.

Geno ended up falling...things changed when he was there. I agree they probably shouldnt have taken him, too many red flags. Bad picks are going to happen though. Brian Winters come on...who cares about missing on a guard there. Your expectations are too high...if you dont have a QB it's all moot anyways.

Who cares about missing on a guard? :mindblown:

Your starting guard gave up 30 sacks in the past two seasons and you say who cares? :dahell:

David Nelson got the second most snap at receiver last season for the Jets and will NEVER see an NFL job again and GENO failed?

funny thing about missing on Winters was the guy who ended up replacing him(another pick from the same draft) turned out to be a pretty good player. Depth was being built...that's the definition of it.

Aboshi was a bottom 30 guard

You wanna know a retarded thought process?

A poster who says a GM failed aNd lost his job because of a 2nd round pick (Geno) then says another failure of a 2nd round pick didn't matter (Winters).

The mind of @Trip... :snoop:
