If Zach makes the improvement we are all hoping for this year, and I'm not talking huge leap but the steady improvement we all want to see, then a lot of that will be to do with continuity...continuity of HC, OC and therefore scheme. It would be wrong in that case to dismiss the continuity at Centre (yes I spelt it right, I'm English 😉) and Left Tackle, so re-signing McGovern and Fant should be top of JD's to-do list to my mind, to not do so might just constitute a dereliction of duty.
With those two locked up the Jets then have a Right Tackle they have a lot of faith in (Mitchell), a Tackle that has all the talent but can't be absolutely relied on given his history (Becton) and are left looking for a reliable swing tackle, most like in free agency next year, and a Mitchell level type Centre in the draft.
Haha, I enjoyed that game as you'd imagine. Was impressed with whoever was playing up top for you, can't remember his name but he looked very dangerous, strong and quick.
#14 was Jonathan Leko is I guess who you mean (rather than 10 Lukas Jutkiewicz)...we paid a lot of money for him (for us) a couple of years ago and he was sent out on loan all last season so he has much to prove to us...

I'm starting it now #re-signfantandmcgovern ...
Not for the first time this week Russ, I agree with every single word.
Now if we could just replay t'other nights cup game and reverse the result all would be well in the world 😎
