The Jets traded 4 draft picks for 1 draft pick. Let's be clear on that.

    So if we’re clear on this can we end this ridiculous thread?

    Jets gave up a lot to try to get a franchise QB. Who gives a shit how it’s worded?

    Hey BS. Just so you and I are clear on this, I'm great with that. I know they have up a lot, and the wording will mean nothing of they get a franchise QB.

    The wording will mean a lot of this trade turns out to be a shit show.

    And people will not get away with pretending that the Jets only traded 3 second round picks.

    Byz, give it up and concentrate on this Spurs game. They can't fucking lose this game at home to a GS team missing three all-stars.

    This year, the Spurs can lose any game they play.

    Especially when Manu Ginobili is missing free throws.

    What's more likely, Jets hit big on #3 pick or Kawhi comes back 95% healthy in the next two weeks?

    The latter by very far, and it won't matter.

    The best player on a basketball team coming back a few weeks before the playoffs to play his 10th game of the season means the chemistry will be garbage.

    Um..no. We gave a first and 3 seconds to get a better first.

    The Jets gave up a pretty girl with PSD and 3 2am drunks at the bars for a supermodel with a great boob job. A Peter Luger steak for a Chick Filet and 3 big Macs. Grey Poupon for Heinz Golden brown and 3 slices of onion. A Porsche 911 for a VW Karmann Ghia and 3 Chevy Cruz's...

    This thread is clearly inspired by your displeasure of the trade. I get what the thread is about but it’s not note worthy. People aren’t (majority) going to think in those terms you listed anyway, even if the pick fails, it will still be about....

    “Well at least we only gave up three twos...”

    If this is a flop, it will likely result in the GM and CS losing their job. If it is a money pick, everyone will be praising The Macc.

    Only because we would have finally found our FQB. (Im hopeful.)

    So either way, sounds like this is ultimately a win-win for you anyway.

    I hate to bust your bubble but IMHO the 4th wild card QB in the Jets mind is Baker M and they are not going there.
    Nor are the other top draft contenders.
    So it might well go Allen or Darnold for the Jets. Not to mention some are thinking Allen is a tall reincarnated version of Dan Marino. If that is remotely close I will pull the plug in a nano second.
    The selection will go down as Mac's legacy...or downfall

    You're jumping to quite a few conclusions here... forgive me for not being ready to do the same.
