Right but my point is that he's not a DE. He's a hybrid dude that you can throw at like 4 different spots on the field. Everyone keeps saying "he's too _____ for a DE". But that shouldn't matter because he's not a DE. I know you agree I'm just explaining why I don't think it's all that valid to compare him to traditional NFL DEs.
Hughes says it's either Anthony Weaver or Zach Orr at DC for the Giants which means Leonhard would be choosing between Dallas and us, unless he interviewed elsewhere and it wasn't reported.
I haven’t been getting overly worked up over this DC hire really because I’m just so down on AG in general that I think is the bigger problem. However, I have started seeing more articles claiming that we are not getting any interest from some of the better candidates due to the roster and the perception that AG is on the hot seat…also saying the good DC candidates will have better options. Nothing we all don’t already know, but now that I’ve seen a couple of articles saying this kind of thing, I’m thinking there probably is some truth to it all. The fact that Harris may very well end up being the DC will speak volumes…the in-house defensive passing game coordinator…that same guy who set an NFL record with ZERO picks in the passing game…if that’s the best we can do then we’ll know for sure the stink of the Jets in general but specifically under AG as a lame duck guy in only his second year is fucking real. I think we all kind of know it and it makes total sense. Still…I’m curious to see how this goes. It’s still just crazy to me that in a year with so many coaching changes, and plenty of precedent for teams to move quickly and go one and done with a terrible coach, and in a year where there are(were) plenty of great candidates, that our idiot owner somehow believes that continuity with an all time terrible HC is better than action, we do nothing. Compounded with a year where we manage to fully earn the 2nd overall pick, there are no great QB prospects other than Mendoza (and not even saying he’s great, but at least he’s legit)… Typical Jets…
