I'm pretty sure the standard cut off date is September 2 for birthdays when starting school. I know this because my birthday is September 1st and I was always the youngest in my class.
Well said. Bain you know is going to be a guy we can depend on. He’s a guy you can have out there on any down and feel good about it.
It actually depends on what state you are in. NY is Dec 31st for example. Where other states can be Sep 1st, Sep 30th and Dec 31st.
https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/jets-linked-young-edge-rusher-184928280.html I dont have a agenda for Bain, just want the most ready impact player we can get but also do other things. I do think the top 10 will look really different with each mock as combine and interviews take place
The more I dig on the kid, the more I like. Again, per my soapbox rant above, we absolutely MUST have a guy at #2 who can step on the field and wreak havoc on downs 1, 2, 3 AND 4...and we KNOW it before he's ever drafted. We don't have to talk about those 4 words I'll never say again when it comes to football players not positioned at the QB spot. To be honest, EVERY single draft pick should be that mindset all the way down the list. There are over 81,000 CURRENT college football players in the United States. I'm sure you can throw another 1,000 from teams in Canada and abroad. If this is done CORRECTLY, Mougey should be able to find starting material all the way down into the 4th/5th round. The GOOD teams do it and the Jets need to LEARN HOW to do it. I can't remember which G.G. member stated it but he/she was very clear this team is always digging for "potential" instead of digging for "help us right damn now." Shit, broke my own rule there! From now on, it's the "P" word! We have a lot of super smart posters on this board, I'd be willing to bet many of them can find us starters/playing rotational guys all the way down to our last pick. Whether that be a guy that can play specials and contribute on a rotational basis to guys like Bain who will never leave the field. A side note: after reading that article, link above in @Poeman's post, the PFF guy mentioned injury history. What I found out is not an injury history. The kid has missed only a handful of games in 3 years. If it's not a history then don't bring it up PFF guy. esshhh...
New York, for example, does not have a statewide cutoff date. It all depends on what district you are in.
