Envious of Jets front office.

The Jets FO has done a great job over recent years. They seem to really want to better their team. I wish our front office was a little more crative or had the balls to pull off some of these moves.

I'm not sure how this Edwards trade will work out, but at least the made a change. The Jenkins trade has worked out pretty good for them as well as moving up to get Sanchez.

The last trade they did involving a guy named Edwards was pretty good for them, even though I don't remember the player they got for the draft pick. :P

Change just for change's sake isn't a good answer though IMO.

It's funny that last year at the end of the season, they were considered questionable because of their decisions of dumping Chad Pennington in favor of Lord Favre, signing Jenkins and Calvin Pace to megadeals, drafting Vernon Gholston at #6 overall, etc.

wow, really? someone commending jets front office moves?

I'm glad somebody finally said it because I was about to. Obviously some have forgotten the thirty year period from the mid 70's to 2005.

edit: well, more of the early 70's to late 90's but I stand by my quote.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
