Beef Jerky Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) First thing is you start boycotting games. Organize a huge group of fans (during the game on Sunday) to give up their seats and go to a homeless shelter or soup kitchen and get some local press to cover it. Leave that stadium half empty in protest. Get a billboard outside the stadium demanding the team get sold. Do something besides sit their and pound chicken wings in the parking lot. Be vocal. That being said you obviously just changed ownership and coaching. So hopefully you get a taste of postseason life again. With that defense anything is possible, but your coach has only had 2 winning seasons in his career, and hasn't sniffed the post season in 4 years. So, fingers crossed I guess. This is why we say Jets fans aren't smart b.c they show it. The reason Rex failed in NJ was b.c your Jests owner hires dumb GMs who destroy teams.

DrDawkinstein Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I was thinking about your hostage situation, I know that had you guys walking on egg shells. I can appreciate that. But if the Jets went a decade and a half without making the playoffs I might be signing up for a billboard encouraging them to move to LA. Easy to say when you'd be better off cheering for the Giants anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 As long as the Jets don't get Winston I'm ok with it. I think he will be a much more successful Pro than Mariota. When you look at college QB's i think you have to strip out all their rushing yardage when projecting them in the NFL. These guys get to the NFL and they can't run like they used to or get hammered way too much. Even guys like Kap, RG3, Manziel, etc.. have to learn to be pocket passers in the NFL and they just aren't as good at it as we thought they'd be.

KDIGGZ Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 I don't know what's scarier? The Jets getting Mariotta or trading their pick to someone like the Eagles and picking up multiple future 1st round picks as compensation. A trade like that could net them a ton of talent in the next couple of drafts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarleyNY Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 The Titans will take him. Yup. Doesn't hurt to feign interest in a player or two that Jax might want though. See if you can drop a spot, get another pick and still get your guy. It probably won't work, but what's it hurt to try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manther Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I don't understand why Jacksonville wouldn't take Amari Cooper? Don't they need WRs to help Blake Bortles? They only way I see them passing on Cooper would be Doug Marrone. He may walk out of the draft roomLmfao! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) I sure hope not. He looks good. Todd McShay has Mariotta going to the Jets at 6 overall. He has Winston going #1 to Tampa. I know this is very early in the process and these first few mock drafts (this is 2.0) should be taken with a grain of salt, but I don't like playmakers ending up on rival AFC East teams. It might take Mariotta some time to become a star in this league but I don't want such a highly touted QB going to the Jets. If the Jets get him I hope at least they have to give up a bunch of picks to do so. What are your thoughts? Will you be jealous if the Jets are able to get someone like Mariotta? http://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/2uvidk/todd_mcshays_2015_nfl_mock_draft_20/ I will be very surprised if the Jets are able to get someone like Mariotta. I had to review the draft order myself, so maybe someone else does too. Here it is (current signed QB in parentheses) 1) Tampa Bay (Glennon, Lobato) 2) Tennessee (Whitehurst, Tanney, Mettenberger) 3) Jacksonville (Bortles, Henne, Morris) 4) Oakland (Carr, McGloin, Schaub) 5) Washington (Cousins, Griffin) I think if you're the TB or Tenn GM with that roster, and you don't take a QB, your seat gets plenty hot especially if that QB shows any potential somewhere else. It is possible that Jacksonville and Oakland hold with Bortles and Carr, though by TBDian logic they didn't light the world on fire last year (especially Bortles with those 17 INTs) so their respective teams should pull another fish out of the pond this year. So if Mariota or Winston go past Tampa and Tenn, a trade up with Jacksonville or Oakland looks possible. I hope they hold the Jets feet to the fire if they try it. I don't know why McShay has an audience though. Isn't he the one who touted Clausen as the best QB in his draft and likewise ranked Gabbert higher than Cam Newton? I don't think he's shown himself to be a very accurate predictor, either of talent or of how NFL teams view talent.

KDIGGZ Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 2-5 have young QB's they are invested in. I think it's the most likely scenario that Mariotta falls to 6. The question is does a team try and trade up to get him if he falls out of the top 5? Rumor has it that Philly is ready to give up 4 picks to move up to get him. Probably 1st this year and next year and maybe even the 1st the year after that plus another high pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB3 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Watching the QB portion of the combine, I've seen the same thing in Mariota that I saw in the National Championship. He looks terrified out there. Maybe it is just his general demeanor, but it is really off-putting. Watching him and Winston stand near each other is crazy because they are polar opposites in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they would go for someone in the 2nd or 3rd They may like Mettenberger but he didn't exactly light it up last year - <60% completions and equal # of TDs and INTs. At least publically, the Titans are a long way short of committing to him. To pass up a QB when you have the #2 pick, a GM has to either 1) already have a lot invested in their current QB (eg Rams/Bradford) 2) have a lot of confidence that the QB options at #2 really won't pan out and make him look stupid, because if he passes up a 1st round QB pick, Mr 6th round Mettenberger bombs, and Mr Coulda Hadja looks great he will get the "stupid" stamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hopefully this doesn't happen. Sure MM may not be "ready" for the NFL but I think at some point down the line he has a good chance to succeed. Given Brady only has a few years left, I would rather that does not take place with the Jests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds are, he will fail to live up to the hype. It's such an huge jump in competition. The Pac 12 is a terrible defense conference and too many Oregon QBs have been hot garbage on the NFL level.

I think the only team that could possibly swing a trade to 2 for MM is Philly (and it would be tough). That's because they could include Foles in the package. No way does TEN come off of the second overall pick without a QB acquired somehow and I can't think of another viable way they get one. Maybe that's why TEN has been playing coy on MM. That or maybe they're trying to entice JAX to flip picks by feigning interest in their top target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4BillsintheBurgh Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I want Shane Ray at 6, or Cooper. But just like the 2008 draft we won one too many games, and will miss out on the two guys that can really help us. Not a fan of Mariota becuase he should NOT play day one. He needs at least a half season to sit and learn. And if the Jets take him there will be way too much pressure to start him day one. He will be a deer in the headlights by week 8. I actually like the kid, so I don't want the Jets and the NYC Media to destroy him. I want Foles as our starter. He has just enough experince to hit the ground running an appease a pretty frustrated fan base. Jets fans aren't like Bills fans. We haven't seen the post season in 4 years and we are ready to burn down Florham Park. I have no idea how yall have accepted 15 years of futility. The way you guys win the most games next year is with Ryan Fitzpatrick who knows chan's offense and a good wr in the draft. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
