    if all holds and no trades are had, 85% chance we take a QB, with the other percent begin the chance that something happens between now and May that makes Mariota and/or Winston undesirable.

    I WILL NEVER, EVER hope for the jets to lose, but thats a nice consolation prize for all thats happened.

    I would prefer to win to avoid the duck. A system based qb who never gets under center and plays in a gimmick based offense in a system that hasn't produced an NFL qb? No thanks. Let some team trade up to reach for him and teach him how to be an NFL QB while giving use a bunch of picks.

    lol i was super close to putting (besides Vick & Geno). Really though if we went that route we have enough money to pick up two of the best linemen available in free agency, along with a CB but i'll save that for another thread. That would give whoever our QB is plenty of time to pass and plenty of playmakers to get things done how it should.

    Mariota would bring a culture change

    There is nothing like Autzen on a Saturday night. Have seen him many times there. Great QB. Even better person.

    Agreed, we already have one of those QB's on our roster. It would be nice to avoid the same trap.

    Our biggest hole is our GM

    There is no salary cap on GMs and it won't even cost us a draft pick to get one.

    We can have a shiny new GM and still use our first pick to solve another problem.

    Doesn't matter that the Jags & Raiders don't need a QB. What matters is which other teams that do are willing to move up to get the one we want.

    We'll probably go after Foles when he's free from Philly after Sanchez leads them to the NFC Championship game.
    Oh the irony .....

    Foles isn't going to be any team's choice over a top prospect in the draft if Sanchez takes the Eagles further than he has.

    Winston, Mariotta and Hundley are all worth drafting. If you can trade down and still get one of them that is certainly worth considering.

    Our answer is Mariota and you can't trade down and expect to draft him.

    We need to stay put or we need to trade up to ensure we draft Mariota. That's a fact.

    No, that's speculation that Mariotta is going to be what you hope he will be. It's also speculation that Mariotta would not be available at the 3rd pick if that is where the Jets draft.

    Are you seriously confusing what a fact is and speculation or is this just deliberate hyperbole on your part? Because if you need to exaggerate your argument is weak.

    Lmao

    Take things serious much. Jesus. I'm just saying shit to make my stand on how I feel about Mariota. Of course there are no facts involved

    I agree with you all the way. I could see Mariota falling in the draft even. I don't think he's that much better than Hundley - who plays in a pro-style offense.

    So when you said "that's a fact" you meant it was not a fact?
