I like him, I like him better than Allen and Darnold. But what the hell do I know I am a 46 year old Executive Leadership Trainer. He passes my eye test on if we should like him or not.... I don't think any prospect is a can't miss. You are right neither one of us know what he will be what Allen will be or any of the QB's.

FYI my track record on QB'S in the last few years I liked and wanted the Jets to draft

DeShaun Watson
Carson Wentz
Aaron Murray
Marcus Mariota
Bryce Petty
Connor Cook
Russel Wislon

QB I didn't want any part of and absolutely did not want the Jets to draft

Jared Goff
Paxton Lynch
DeSean Kizer
Jamies Winston
Terry Bridgewater
Geno Smith
EJ Manuel



I don't know.. Looking at that list I feel like I am as good as any GM in judging QB talent.... LOL!!!!

please go train Maccagnan. He needs your help.

I guess I should put it on record the QB's I like and dislike in this draft.. This way when Mac drafts teh next QB bust and he gets fired next year I can submit it to Chris Johnson as proof to give me the job

QB's I like:

Josh Rosen
Baker Mayfield
Drew Lock (if he declares)
Lamar Jackson
Mike White


QB's I do not like

Josh Allen (Tough to not like his talent but my gut says bust)
Jarret Stidham
Luke Falk


And I am scared of Darnold.. I am 50/50 on this kid he reminds me of Sanchez ( just a lil taller).... this is good and bad, his strengths and weaknesses are exactly the same as Sanchez

Strength - Talented, Accurate and Athletic

Weakness - Poor decision making, Poor Ball Security

I like Darnold for his size and footwork. I hate him for his turnovers, but I think ball security can be taught. I like Rosen, but not his speak your mind attitude. I like Allen's size and arm, but not his accuracy. I hate Jackson except for his running ability. I like Mason Rudolph's arm, but you can get him in 2nd round. I do not like the OU child for way more reasons than any of the ones mentioned. I just think he has huge bust written all over him and I believe him to be a major douche.

With #6 pick:
1. Darnold
2. Barkley
3. OL
4. EDGE
5. Rosen
6. trade

I agree ball security can be taught.... to bad we didn't do that with Sanchez... Do you have faith this Coaching Staff can teach it? Cause if they can I would move Darnold to my like list in a heartbeat. I think Morton did a good job with mcCown in that department.

I would hope so. If not then don't draft any QB.

You forgot hitting an opponent on the sideline in the head with a football and the throat slashing gesture at the bowl game.

ty... Baker needs to be in the perfect situation and our team is NOT it...

one perfect scenario would be NO Saints as they have built a dynamo with Brees, to learn from and get the keys to take over for...

I don't question Bakers skill as much as his baggage. His childish behavior would be amplified 100 times in New York. I don't want the Jets to be a circus again.

I think the Jets are signing Cousins. If that occurs, they will stay at 6.

That, though possible, would be very expensive. At least that way if we drafted another bust QB it wouldn't hurt so much and we could concentrate on getting some vital pieces for our "O" line.

Additionally, while I'm thinking about it, I would be more willing to believe that they would go after Alex Smith. He's had a good season. He's a bunch cheaper, and, the Niners have already said that they are willing to trade him.

i would be thrilled with smith & a QB at 6.. that almost by accident would be one of this franchises best/well thought out plans at the QB position..

if maccagnan loves one of the QBs still on the board at 6, don't get cute, grab him!!

And the Jets are willing to trade Tom Brady. The Chiefs and Patriots might object though.:9:

Seriously, if the Broncos who have a win-now squad are replacing Smith with a young gun, why would we want him for a two/three year rebuild?

I don't want him. He can't seem to handle the big game. I'm just saying that going after him is something I'd expect of the Jets mostly because he's cheaper and his regular season stats were pretty good. We need a QB that can handle the playoff games when we get there. I'd rather have Cousins but they are probably going to cheap out of contention for him.
