Has the truth about the Jalen Saunders fiasco finally surfaced?

[Pointdexter]

The Jets released Saunders early in the season, which raised some eyebrows. A source said Saunders was a nightmare for the coaching staff to deal with. He repeatedly lied to the Jets and lost the trust of the organization.

That and the man couldn't catch a punt let alone a pass

His loss is no biggie. Drafting him was the mistake.

BS, I was pissed about this pick with bruce Ellington still sitting there. Martavis Bryant was also there.

Bryant would have been perfect for us. Tall wide receiver that can stretch the field.

I don't know how fast he is, maybe a little like Landry though as a 1st down machine and huge redzone target. Maybe they thought his game was too similar to Deckers. Either way, I really liked Bruce Ellington coming out of SC. I was disappointed we didnt grab him. I think he's a games. He's a tough kid.

Picks like that get people fired

That explains why Saunders was kicked off.

Was mad we passed up Ellington, Norwood and Bryant during the 4th round.

He was good at Oklahoma and once he left the Jets he ended up returning punts for The Saints and actually returning one for a TD. Guess he couldn't handle being a Jet.

A lot of our receivers couldn't handle being coached by an incompetent failure like Sanjay Lal, better equipped for baking Naan and Tandoori chicken than coaching football.

You can pretty much use the term incompetent for all the sycophantic yes men that Ryan surrounded himself with as the poor loyal fans of the Buffalo Bills will be finding out in September

How scared would you be with Idzik making the sixth pick this year?

He would pick the next Vernon Gholston.

 

[Xmarco]

He was good at Ok but he will be selling cars in two years

didn't he take sheldon richardson with the 13th pick when almost everyone was scratching their heads at the pick?

 

[Xmarco]

And MBryant would be great here

There are a ton of people on this board that would be very excited if Idzik were making this year's pick. They may not admit it, but there are more idzik apologists on this board than you may think.

Yes, he did and I do give him lots of credit for that pick. However, that and the Ivory trade for a fourth were his only good moves besides cleaning up cap space. He did a great job with that but some of the moves he made to clear space were no brainers.

How are the two picks that sandwiched the Richardson pick turning out? It doesnt matter if I agreed with some of the picks or not, you're evaluated as a GM with how they tun out. So how has the Milliner/Geno/Winters/Campbell picks turned out so far....or do we just want to focus on the 1 of 20 picks that turned out great for him?
