The time between the draft and the opening of camps is the quietest time of the NFL year. Fans are wondering what their team's offseason strategies have wrought and writers struggle with filling in the gaps. It's hard for all NFL die-hards. It often leaves us frustrated as we struggle for information. Some writers do their best in filling the void, while others just prove they're in the wrong business. Take for example the stories quoting the infamous anonymous sources. They include;
  • An anonymous GM says the Jets have the worst roster in the last 10 years.
  • An NFL GM is stunned by Jets' roster purge.
  • Anonymous insiders say the Jets brass are happy with Hackenburg's improvement.
  • An anonymous scout says Hack is the worst QB he's ever seen based on a tape from one pre-game warm up in 2016.
  • An anonymous source says Mac and Bowles are not on the same page.
  • An anonymous source says Mac won the power struggle that led to the letting go of Harris and Decker.
  • The NFL is viciously roasting the Jets, who have 'no plan'. The NFL? The whole league?
Seriously? How about these anonymous sources;
  • An anonymous source says the anonymous sources quoted by Jets sports writers are all made up.
  • Anonymous sources say Rich Cimini has not been to Florham Park or a Jets game in three years.
  • Anonymous sources say Manish Mehta's anonymous source is John 'I Drafted Quincy Enunwa' Idzik.
  • Anonymous sources say Rich Cimini's anonymous source is Manish Mehta.
Anonymous sources say if you can't write about what you're seeing (good or bad) then STFU and stop quoting/making up anonymous sources!

Anonymous sources seems to be what all the NY media does whether it sports or politics. I don't know how y'all deal with all the misinformation coming from the NYT, sports reporters, etc.
