They should have made Rex GM too instead of the puppet they did hire. Just give Rex a lifetime extension and be done.
This is what pisses me off, we needed to get faster off the edge, we needed to get better on offense, and we did neither.

He was a dominant force at the point of attack. The explosive junior was constantly firing into the backfield to be a disruptive presence against the pass and the run. Richardson was impossible not to notice when watching tape of the Tigers; he was all over the field. If plays went away from him, Richardson would give tremendous effort to run across the field and get in on tackles. Because he is extremely fast, he was able to have an impact with that effort. Richardson got in on tackles over 10 yards down the field on wide receivers after receptions. Richardson finished the year second on Missouri in tackles with 75. He registered 10.5 tackles for a loss, four sacks, three passes broken up and three forced fumbles. too. Richardson also returned a fumble 60 yards against Kentucky. The Tigers did not qualify for a Bowl game, and the junior quickly declared for the 2013 NFL Draft. He recorded 37 tackles, eight tackles for a loss, two sacks and a forced fumble in 2011. Missouri used Richardson at defensive end and tackle. He had success as a pass-rusher at end as well as at tackle. Richardson beat Alabama right tackle D.J. Fluker for a sack coming from end, and is a much better pass-rusher than his sack totals indicate. Richardson had 14 tackles against Alabama. He was impressive going against the Crimson Tide's superb offensive line. Against Kentucky's Larry Warford, Richardson didn't make plays versus the tough guard but found a way to have a big impact versus the Wildcats' other linemen. Richardson could be a dangerous pass-rusher in the NFL as a three-technique defensive tackle in a 4-3 defense. He also could play end on run downs and move inside to tackle in passing situations for a 4-3 system. Richardson also would fit as a 3-4 defensive end given his length, speed and great motor. He is an impact player who is a three-down player and tone-setter for a defense. Richardson is a fiery player who has some potential to be a leader in the locker room.
Agreed. Also, when he enters his 16th year as head coach of the Jets/Woody's "Cool Friend", I wonder if he'll realize you need to be able to score points on offense in this league to win a division title/AfC title/SB?
So we were told to drink the Koolaid that by trading our best player, we'd fill a glaring need. Then, we go and draft a player we didn't need lmao Fuck this organization man
Don't waste your time...it's been discussed over and over again......the Jets got two good players and need positions. That DL is gonna wreck havoc.....look for offense in the second round.
This...we drafted two areas that were not needs in my eyes...and how Richardson was BPA at 13 boggles me...Jets board must have been upside down
So basically our 1st round pick got dominated by the best player on the worst team in the SEC. Warford is a 2nd round talent and he destroyed Richardson.
