It’s confirmed: Zay Jones is the biggest bust in living memory

For some reason people believe a team that drafts Zay Jones and trades for Calvin Benjamin can evaluate the talent of a Qb?

 

They sure did a great job drafting and starting Peterman. The talent evaluation here is terrible. Makes me nervous about our brilliant trades and maneuvering to pick up Josh Allen 

Even the great Belichick has been known to flub talent evaluation (lately he repeated the Coleman mistake of an experiment)--it's an inexact science, hence the continual turnover in the league at the GM position. How many 1st round busts litter the history of the league again? Get the QB right, and most all else will be forgiven. If history shows that they did hit right on Allen, nothing else needs to be said.

I have yet to see any evidence that the 2nd round pick that McDermott traded up to get is anywhere close to being an impact player.

 

 

Most of his production has been GTP with outcomes already decided. 

 

Zay has come a long way from the awful 2017 campaign he actually looks like an NFL player out there. I hope that as Allen gets more comfortable and Zay feels things out a bit more (remember he is coming off an injury) that the more significant production from Zay will come. If Zay has a decent 50ish receptions 500ish yard season I think he certainly will prove he is worthy of being on the roster for one more season to see if he can develop in year 3. 

 

Sometimes player development takes time. I don't think Zay will ever live up to his draft position but hopefully he can be a contributor.

Could anyone be more invisible out there? Yeah, Benjamin is in self-preservation mode and going half speed on half of his plays, but Zay is trying his best. That’s horrific. There is 0.0 chance this guy makes it out of TC next year. 

 

We took him over JuJu. Damn. I’d rather have TJ Graham.

Biggest bust?! Nah... keep looking, you'll find better candidates.

If you wish to criticize the most productive WR on the team go ahead 

Just shut up with your disingenuous "most productive receiver on the team" garbage.  You are entering clown status with this logic.

 I will absolutely criticize him. He is not productive what’s so ever along with the other WRs. Productive and Zay Jones should never be used in The same sentence.

 

3 catches for 30 something yards all in garbage time yesterday. 

 

He has has no business at all being a NFL starting receiver and would be lucky to be a 5th on most teams.

 

Great 2nd round pick by Beane

I'm no McBeane fan, nor a fan of Zay. But Beane was not GM when Zay was drafted. Many on here will claim that he was a McDermott pick. So the blame would fall there if that is true.

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but he just hasn't figured out how to separate.  Its a big issue.

 

I'd like to see more short timing stuff with him.  Especially as it seems like loading the box and blitzing with man coverage is pretty much the plan to stop our offense.

I am an Allen believer.  But your comment here sure does give me pause.
