    He's NOT Breece Hall, but a scrappy player. I like him and this is a good move

    When trades like this go down, it is always interesting to get instant reaction from the trading team's fans

    "JRob gonna kill in in NY this year and help lead the Jets to the playoffs"

    "Wow. Baalke out here showing how he got fired from SF. Jesus [BLEEP] Christ."

    "You're telling me that we got less compensation on a top 10 RB that was the ultimate team player than we spent on Snoop [BLEEP] Conner?!
    Jesus [BLEEP] Christ. What happened to learning that you need J Rob, Doug?"

    "One thing I can say is the Jets have a great GM. Why do we always have the GM that gets fleeced lol."



    They love bringing up Jesus out in Jacksonville

    The dude sustained a serious injury, and thats prob why the drafted Etiene. Not really sure if he has the same burst as he obviously doesnt get the same carries

    He's also not too shabby at drafting players either.

    I always assumed they drafted Etienne bc he was their new FQBs favorite target for years.

    Didn't ass finger man Urban Meyer make the decision to draft Etienne to pair him with Lawrence to create college magic?

    Good point. But so far this season he looks fully recovered.

    Let's hope 2020 was an outlier and the players selected from the last two don't drop like flies.

    Huge pick up for the Jets. Douglas is genie, a slick deal maker who has scored another steal for this team.

    Great pick-up. Robinson is a stud

    That’s the first thing I thought of …. Definitely shows they are in it to win it this year as they should be with a 5-2 record.

    Last year the Jets wouldn’t have made this move.

    Nice move by Douglas. Low risk, above average potential deal. I've liked Robinson since he first came into the league. He really burst onto the scene his rookie year. Hoping to keep the ground and pound going.

    JD would never be able to replace Breece but with this move he comes pretty much as close as he can to doing it.

    Great move and a steal for a low round draft pick.

    Douglas killed it in last draft, it's only up from here.

    Go Jets.

    Pederson on Robinson yesterday...

    "Yeah, something we have to evaluate him and see where he is at physically health-wise and all of that," Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said after the game.

    "He has been good each week and something that we've got to really take a look at and see. We know T.J. [Travis Etienne, Jr.] has done a nice job kind of taking over there, but we need everybody. We need James, and we've got a lot of confidence in James still. It's not anything about lack of confidence or anything. We just have to make sure he is 100% before we move forward.
