It's a bullshit red herring presented by folks who think they are better fans, but really it's that they don't understand what it takes to build a consistently competitive winner. In other words, Jet fans. _
just stop it, your weak arguments have been torn apart here. drafting higher guarantees nothing. all the fans on this site are good fans, we all care way too much about this stuff but good fans/people sometimes do stupid things and to root for your team to lose is stupid.
Well, Todd McShay (BTW, I don't care what any analysts say--but it's all anyone points to) is calling Winston the top rated QB, up near Luck in a very long time. Folks are saying he has the highest football IQ since Peyton. Again, I don't judge players based upon what bloggers or McShay or Kiper say--I judge players on what I see. _
I actually don't care about your opinions. Sophistry of the highest order. You just don't understand what I am saying, which is par for the course. _
You are arguing with children. There is no logical and rational reason that anyone would want to draft LOWER than HIGHER. We as Jet fans all want to win. But once you are knocked out of the playoffs, every win only hurts you in your future prospects. The "there are no guarantees in the draft" red herring is sophistry of the highest order. Of course there are no guarantees--except the lower you are you are guaranteed of not having as many options as drafting HIGHER. It's been turned into a discussion of hoping we tank to get a better pick--which is so idiotic and not the narrative--not accepting that nothing any fan thinks or hopes or dreams has any effect on the games. It's disappointment on having options taken away. _
so you rooted for your team to lose- how did that work out? did it get us the higher draft pick you crave?
anyway, back to the topic. to all those that rooted for the Jets to lose: so you rooted for your team to lose- how did that work out? did it get us the higher draft pick you crave?
To all those who wanted to win meaningless games when we were out of the playoffs in October, looking prospectively, do you prefer to draft higher in every round or do you prefer to to draft lower in every round? Not talking about a win or a loss at the end of the year which will clinch a playoff spot or lose a playoff spot. Obviously making the playoffs and maybe a homefield playoff game (which we haven't had since Pennington) is the most important thing and what we all hope dream and root for, but when we're shitting the bed with one or 2 wins in November, is it your preference to have MORE options in the draft or LESS options. No guarantees mind you. Just the options. _
