    How to get $2,000 in two easy steps.

    1) find $1,000 dollars lying around.
    2) find a complete idiot who will take any bet.

    For the # 1 Draft pick: According to ESPN.com the Jags and Lions are ahead us (15.8% chance for # 1 pick) BUT 74% chance of getting a top 5

    Sounds good to me. Running full speed to the Betting App lol

    Unfortunately it will be the wrong year to own the overall #1 unless they are content simply using the pick. No true QB prospects have really emerged as of yet. Had the Jets been in this position in almost any other year they would of gotten a bounty.

    If we got a top 5 pick, I would love to trade out of that and get more picks for future years too.

    Really help to set up the franchise for a very long time potentially.

    It's because of the bye week. I'm sure we will recapture our rightful throne In due time. :(

    This is a great idea when organizations know how to draft and develop talent. The Jets on the other hand, have NEVER been know for developing draft capital.

    Some will say bad picks (and that can be argued) but this team has forever been miserable at developing...

    It doesn't help when in any one time half the fan base is screaming for a player to be cut or traded after a bad game or two.

    If the draft order ends up where it is currently the Jets may benefit more by trading down a few spots with the Seattle pick ….

    He could very easily be out the next 6 weeks. I hope he heals well and takes all of the time in the world to do so.

    yah that intro was brutal….

    but the biggest issue with him is he’s not a ball hawk and never was. For a safety to be that highly drafted he has to change games. Ed Reed was one of the best ball hawks and changed games. Troy Polamalu was also a force. Adams doesn’t change games like those guys…

    It doesn't matter how many times you repeat this stuff, it doesn't make it even close to being true. There is only the occasional rare poster here calling for any player to be cut or traded after a lousy game or two. We're used to it.

    Has the fanbase ever been wrong though? At least in recent memory.

    Maybe there will be an attention seeking possession receiver there for the #1 overall pick.....

    They're usually pretty damn good for a couple of seasons before the crazy sets in.

    this is exactly what they should have done last year after they missed out on Lawrence (by being a badly run organisation) - traded the #2 pick to the Niners for 3 first round picks

    at the moment though there is no hot QB prospect that anyone is likely to want to trade up for - fingers crossed someone emerges
