ChronicAndKnuckles Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Zach Wilson is trash, but if there is anyone in the league he could possibly elevate himself as a back up with it would be Josh Allen. He’s shown flashes of that physical talent here and there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 The guy isn’t good by any stretch but I’d give him a shot as a potential long term backup. He can run and he’s got to get out of the situation he’s in. Sadly this guy has been the only non Mahomes/Burrow/Brady that’s really beaten us more than once. Go figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salah's defense does. He admitted after that week 1 win (by the Jets) that he knew the plays that Dorsey called before the ball was snapped. If you think back on those Jets losses. they all involved multiple turnovers by the Bills as well as stalled drives. Salah may be a bit of a meathead and a bad HC, but he is a great defensive mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One guy defends him so hard that I think that it may be Ken himself. To be fair, I think that Ken got a bit of a raw deal in Buffalo. He'll learn from his mistakes and he'll be better the next time he gets to call plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly knows football and had some impressive numbers at times, but his consistency and rhythm was bad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every DC knew what was coming. Then, he tried to implement 12 personnel in year two and Knox got hurt. But the rhythm was bad and he didn't adapt during games. He'll learn from that.

Utah John Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I think the Jets destroyed Zach Wilson with their ridiculously bad O line and their non-genius OC, can't hackett. Or maybe they just damaged him and he remains fixable. I think he has talent but is shell-shocked. A season as a backup here or elsewhere, with professional coaches and a good O line, might be what he needs to resurrect his career. I wouldn't give up a thing to trade for him, nor would I accept him with his current salary. But if he's cut and becomes a FA, and is willing to play for what a backup QB gets (around $1M), I think he'd be an upgrade over our current backup, who gets the same salary but is nowhere near as good.

The Jets did him no favors with their coaching and OL, but he has been in the league 4 years now and hasn't shown any improvement with the mental aspect of the game. He has trouble going thru his reads, progressions and understanding what looks the defense is throwing at him. That leads to so many poor decisions on his part with where to throw the ball. I don't know if that is fixable or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I think that defense has given us some issues and yeah we gave that one away week 1 but Wilson made some big throws in that first win. The 21 win. I’m not saying he’s good but he has the tools. I’d be willing to give him a shot at backing up Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Claude Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) Why not a 6 rounder if your team is not too worried about cap space and the Jets pick up most of the salary? If he looks awful, just cut him. If he looks good in practice you can sign him to a new contract and it won't cost much. If he looks good in games and someone else offers him more that you want to pay, it will help you with the comp pick formula. If he actually looks like a legitimate starting QB, well then you have a QB. Seems like a reasonable cost for a QB who has been awful but clearly has physical talent and also was in about a bad situation as possible from the QB development stand point. Of course, this is totally dependent on the Jets picking up most of the salary. Edited March 2 by Billy Claude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
