    Draft Justin Fields

    Overpay to ensure we sign Scherff or Thuney. This is the most important piece tbh. We can go after Allen Robinson too but doubt he comes.

    Re-sign Eflien and Fant. I think both can start next year. Keep Eflien at guard as that clearly has worked for him here.

    Seattle pick take the best WR available
    Round 2 pick take the Best Center available.

    This team has tried quick fixes before, only to have them backfire. Build a core through the draft and supplement it with FA's.

    Followed by 8-8, 6-10 and Joe Douglas fired with 3 years left on his contract.

    There is no quick fix. This dumpster fire will take years to get back to anything approaching respectability.

    I would say Fant needs to be replaced. I read a week or two ago he was 162nd out if 165 tackles in run blocking by pff. We can do better.

    This is a 3 to 5 year fix.

    Reality is we are right where we were when we drafted Sam

    It's alright. Whoever they hire at HC will help them find the next GM.

    Enough quick fixes. I'm ready for a nice, old fashioned slow fix. If this franchise had ever tried one, we'd know if they work any better than the half century of quick fixes that have continuously blown up in the Jets' face.

    The rest of the league rebuilds their team in 2 years... JETS still living in the 80's and running with the 10 year out trickle down bullshit.

    Actually we are in a worse spot..

    We need a coach that gets the respect of the locker room and wants the challenge of taking over a franchise that has to do a full on rebuild. From there we start putting building blocks in place.

    We had the talent when JD took the job. We needed him to improve it, He couldn't. The best we can hope for is JD gives us as much talent as he got here.

    If we had the talent, his predecessor wouldn't have gotten fired.

    I just assume all Jets hires are incompetent until proven otherwise

    Fact is AORN...
    JD's roster is WORSE than what he got.

    I'm not one of those he's done a good job since he gets his 1st year off cause it wasn't his draft...nah.
    Accountability.
    The O-line was supposed to be his strength and other than the BIG ticket which FELL in his lap he has done nothing that improved this team.
    I will say that Elflein looks good but again, that was looking through the scrap heap which again the JETS seem to live in just to save a few bucks.
    The Line was just as bad as it was previous years and he has done nothing but brought in mediocre B and C squad talent just like his predecessors doing the owners bidding.

    The Punter was his best pick so far and the fact that (again) the Pats seem to find guys all over who can play ST.
    We're drafting punters people...and that's here and in the UK!

    all that said and yes, they can all get better but I doubt James Morgan will be on the roster.
    Ashtyn Davis is a fukn joke.
    Zuniga? 1 and done today....again!
    Mims...he looks bored af out there.
    Big Ticket seems to only go half games rn which is a little alarming.
    Perine needs help
    Clark is a project
    Hall is looking decent for a 5th rounder.

    OF COURSE this COULD get better but do you really believe the JETS can build players up? lmao...this is the wash part..
    in 2 years we rinse and in 3 we'll repeat.

    This is a big point for JD. No 6 year plan here. 1 more year to see progress...

    Hope you don't renew tickets next season until there is progress
