Diggs is a different breed. He'll have the kid on roller skates. Diggs bodies opposing CB's.

I want to hear what Sauce says after the 2 beatdowns the Bills are going to put on them. They had a great draft but they were 4-13 last year and the worst team in the division. They might win 6-8 games but it won't be enough to challenge the Bills.

What’s he supposed to say ?  “I’ll get toasted”?  This is nothing.  All these guys say stuff like this 

 

"Those guys are among the best and I look forward to playing against them.  They'll be a great test"

 

The smart ones don't write a check with their mouths they may not be able to cash with their bodies at first.

Jets had a great draft unfortunately. One of the funniest comments I read on the Jets board was someone said that "Joe Douglas is the best GM in the league and its not even close". Other Jets fans to their credit told him he isn't even the best in the division behind Beane and Bill. One guy also said "can we do better than 4-13 before we put him in the HOF".

 

His 2020 draft was terrible. 2021 doesn't look amazing either, though Vera-Tucker is excellent. Moore is interesting. 

 

They love their Hyperbole. It will be interesting to see how it plays out when Wilson's rookie contract is up. I mean that is really what it is all about. I think he is terrible, but if he pans out they will be in good shape in a few years. The crazy thing is, when they have to pay him in year 5-6, they will have to pay maybe Becton, Vera Tucker and will have to decide if they want to pick up fifth year options on Gardner, G. Wilson, and Johnson. Again first world problems down the line, and Douglas may be fired by then, but sometimes having too many first round picks could backfire in the long run. Douglas did a nice job, but not sure he really is seeing the big picture in roster construction, and that is why Beane is the man.

pre-draft he said something like "I am the best player in the draft". And now this. 

Pride comes before the fall. He needs to earn the right to be cocky and over-confident. 

 

This is not a good start for the young man.

To be fair Belichick isn’t looking like all that great of a GM these days.

Meh - he is a kid making an overly confident statement at this stage of his NFL career.  On one hand love the confidence the kid displays.  On the other, I look forward to him getting burned as he learns.

True but he will always get the benefit of the doubt based on the past two decades. But he is also finding out that life in the NFL without Brady isn't so easy.

Not to mention his first two draft picks (Becton and Mims) are well on their way to be out of the NFL in less than 3 years.

 

The rest of his 1st draft class has been awful https://jetswire.usatoday.com/lists/new-york-jets-2020-nfl-draft-class-looks-disastrous-joe-douglas/

I don't think the went the wrong way. The poor guy was trying to go home after all he was just drafted by the Jets

[HamptonBillsfan]

Sauce is big on confidence and bluster but does he think covering the guys on Cinn. schedule is in any way applicable to Diggs, Hill, Waddle or Davis. Call me back after he gets abused in traditional Jets fashion. 

 

[BillsShredder83]

Im not blaming anyone for their  reactions to this.... just wanna point out how funny it is yesterday a bunch of us wouldve gave up #25, rd 3, next years 1, plus some to have this guy a Bill.... and I get one night of sleep and wake up to pitchforks LOLLLLLL man i love the draft

Sauce for the goose, Mr. Saavik.

Something like this: "This division has some great wide receivers and I'll have work my butt off to prepare for them, but I believe I am up to the challenge."

LOL at that last

 

The Jets had a solid first round and came away with 3 highly regarded players who should help them a lot.

 

OTOH, the announcers on ABC were just "washing" them to a ridiculous degree, they drafted the best CB in the draft and they drafted the best WR and then they drafted the best LB/DE in the draft.

 

Every year, players who are drafted later on outperform initially and/or have better careers than players who are drafted higher, so I think the chances the Jets hit it out of the park x3 are fairly small.  They had a good draft, but let's not go nuts. 

 

The pundits were all slamming the Bills a couple years ago for trading up for Josh Allen and then for Tre Edmunds.   We know how Allen vs Pundits worked out and while in hindsight, we might all rather have Darius Leonard, fwiw PFR has Edmunds at equal AAV to Roquan Smith (who went eighth) and better than Rashan Evans (who went 22); Edmunds hasn't  been what the fans hoped, and maybe not quite what the Bills hoped, but he's been a starter.
