Boy, did our Joe D. blow it with our tackle position. You could not possibly expect Becton to play 17 games so if your not planning to draft a tackle early then you have to sign one or two tackles in FA . I don't know if its arrogance or deciding to save $ somewhere, but with all the money we spent on WR, TE and RB goes out the window if we can't block. Moving our rookie guard, moving our RT to LT and now this. And they haven't played together more then a few snaps. Its always something with this team to fuck up a good plan. We are screwed, this line even of Brown comes back soon is not going to be ready to run the ball. That takes time and were are a running team. I am glad Zac is out, let Flaco and White get killed. Living in the Jet bubble all off season I had such hope for this season (8-9 wins) but now I understand what everyone else has been saying all off season looking at our schedule and our team. Were gonna start 0-5 and its gonna be the same shit. Well, I hope Zac comes back and looks good by the end of the season so were only looking for a new head coach, not a QB. Sorry for such negativity but I am a 63 year old ex 37 year season ticket holder that seen a lot more then you so trust me, if it can go wrong, its will go wrong with this team. I just can't anymore, I can't do another season like last year.

I was shocked when we drafted a CB with the 4th pick in this draft. We had just signed DJ Reed and had Breece Hall and Brandin Echols in house. Gardner is a great talent. But with both OT’s returning off of knee surgeries and zero depth on the roster OT was the way to go there. Especially with two studs sitting there for the taking. And a RB in round 2? We had Michael Carter and we could have more than gotten by with Coleman and Johnson for this season and we could have added one a little later as well. We even ended up with Bam Knight as an UDFA to boot. Hey, yes, we had a really nice draft! But so did a lot of other teams. This weeks opponent picking at least 10 spots later had every bit as good of a draft as we did. So it’s not like this draft was devoid of talent.😂

Hi Mark - i am the same with you. However, I stayed a season ticket holder one year too long (this year). Thought we would go and had to go 8-9-10 wins. Now its just what you said - 0-5 could be 0-8. I dont want to see them win 7 games at the end of the season either. They will go We finiashed 7-11 and we found a QB. WRONG - that would mean both Salah and Douglas keep thier jobs and they shouldnt. I'm 70 and this is my last as a season ticket holder

I'm a big supporter of Joe D, but he totally blew it on this one.

I'm not going to second guess the draft (I never wanted Becton...another story).

Knowing Becton's fragility and the lack of talent in the rest of the room Joe had to be

active in FA. I hope Mitchell turns into another D'Brick, but he's not now. Unacceptable situation.

FYI, I am 59, grew up a season ticket holder in Joe Willie's down years at Shea. Now raising a son

who bleeds green out here in Oregon.
